Anti-defamation League (ADL) of B'nai B'rith
The Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith subseries is dedicated to a case that took place in San Francisco, California. The Anti-Defamation League (ADL), formerly known as Anti-Defamation League of B'nai B'rith, is an organization that, among other tasks, monitors activities of extremist organizations and hate groups. The 1993 case involved a San Francisco area antique dealer Roy Bullock, who served as ADL's investigator, and San Francisco police Inspector and former CIA agent Tom Gerard. Bullock and Gerard gathered and forwarded information about individuals and organizations to the ADL. The investigation revealed that through Bullock and Gerard, ADL had compiled files on thousands of individuals and hundreds of groups across the political spectrum, predominantly Arab and Palestinian individuals and organizations, but also organizations such as NAACP, ACLU, labor unions, ACT-UP, Mother Jones magazine, and Jews for Jesus. Jabara was a member of the American-Arab Anti-Discrimination Committee (ADC) legal team working on a lawsuit against ADL. Material in the subseries is mostly dated 1993, unless otherwise specified, and includes legal research and background materials, court documents (pleadings, summaries) and their drafts, correspondence and memoranda, material about related cases, press releases, and unsorted newspaper articles and clippings.
