(Petrograd, 1917):
During the period of the Alexander Kerensky-led Socialist coalition following the February 1917 Revolution, a free election for Jews to organize their own Congress was organized. However due to the Bolshevik change in government that October, although the election was indeed held, the Congress was never convened. Raised Jewish hopes were dashed against a new Soviet reality.
