I'm live in Sosnowiec. I know a lot of places related with The Jewish Community. I can prepare some informations, translate scentific papers and studies etc.


Try to contact with ZAGLEMBIE CENTRE OF THE JEWISH CULTURE IN BĘDZIN:

Use google to easy finding of any informations. In internet is a lot of materials in english i.e.:

Hey, umm I was wondering.. Although I've been to Poland with my school, there is something I couldn't find out and that keeps bothering me. What is the Polish population's attitude to Jews and to the Jewish Communities all over Poland today (I guess there aren't that much communities)?

There are many people in Poland "Jewish enough for Adolf" but hardly any real Jews, even these few people active in Jewish organizations are rather only "of Jewish orgin", so hard to say about any attitude to them as they are completely assimilated. Generally attitude to Jews is... well, I won't be cheating... It's mixed.

That's very interesting Grzegorz!, can you please tel us some more about the mixed attitude tureds jews??

Some like them, others don't...

And in % that would be about? what do you think?

I don't know, fifty fifty maybe.
