Original – Grant E. Hamilton's "Their New Jerusalem", showing the migration of Jews to America in the face of Russian persecution. A fairly optimistic take on the immigrant experience.

Reason: A fine print from one of the major illustrated American magazines, Judge. For some reason the unrestored version was an FP on Commons.

Comment: I'm not withdrawing my vote for now, but at a closer glance it appears this illustration is neutral or even optimistic on Jewish immigration to the United States? It appears to depict the Jews gaining prosperity in the United States through "Perseverance and Industry" and acknowledging their persecution in the Russian Empire. If so, it might not be an educative illustration of antisemitic attitudes in the United States, or at the very least requires a more detailed caption in History of antisemitism in the United States. ―Howard • 🌽³³ 12:59, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It also shows "our first families driven out." At most I would call this mixed, rather than neutral, and I think its place in the antisemitism article is warranted. Moonreach (talk) 13:49, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
In that case, I understand. ―Howard • 🌽³³ 20:10, 11 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment – leaning to support, but the original [1] is much larger (higher resolution). Bammesk (talk) 03:32, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comment We shouldn't be making observations like 'optimistic take'. And as above, it does not illustrate article well does it? Charlesjsharp (talk) 08:38, 13 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
