Rethinking Poles and Jews [Polacy i Żydzi]
Cherry is the co-author of Rethinking Poles and Jews: Troubled Past, Brighter Future published simultaneously in Poland as Polacy i Żydzi – kwestia otwarta (pictured), one of the first books to address the negative assumptions and anti-Polish bias in the Holocaust literature. The book, produced in collaboration with Dr Annamaria Orla-Bukowska of Jagiellonian University in Kraków, was published in English as well as in Polish; and described by Michael C. Steinlauf as "a ray of light amidst the acrimonious and generally uninformed polemics", and "a series of essays that pierce the stereotypes which have obscured historical reality" (Deborah Lipstadt, Denying the Holocaust).
