1931 Gorky's article "On Anti-Semites"

85 years ago, on June 24, 1931, Maxim Gorky's article "On Anti-Semites" was published in Pravda. The proletarian writer argued: “If the anti-Semites knew the bloody history of the struggle of religion against science, they would know that the Christian Church interrupted the scientific work of the human mind for almost millennia and that this work was restored precisely by the Semites, Arabs and Jews. Generally speaking, stupid people have become would be much smarter if someone told them the tragic history of the Jewish people and its merits in the history of the development of culture.
