The Temple (formally, the Hebrew Benevolent Congregation) is a Jewish center in Atlanta, Georgia. The oldest Jewish congregation in Atlanta, the Hebrew Benevolent Society, was established in 1860 to serve the needs of German-Jewish immigrants. The Temple, designed by Philip Trammell Shutze in a Neoclassical style, was completed in 1931. Previous temples of the congregation were located at:〔http://books.google.com/books?id=SE0UAAAAYAAJ&lpg=PA390&ots=k4diSSUzQW&dq=temple%20richardson%20pryor%20atlanta&pg=PA390 〕 *1875-1902: Garnett and Forsyth Streets, downtown *1902-1929: South Pryor and Richardson Streets, Washington-Rawson neighborhood southeast of downtown〔(photo ) after it had been converted into a Greek Orthodox Church〕 During the 1950s and 1960s The Temple became a center for civil rights advocacy. In response, white supremacists bombed The Temple on October 12, 1958, with no injuries. While arrests were made, there were no convictions. Atlanta Journal-Constitution editor Ralph McGill's outraged front-page column on the Temple bombing won a Pulitzer Prize for Editorial Writing. ==References== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「The Temple (Atlanta)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
