The Global State of Antisemitism & an Examination of the Zionist Project w/ Kenneth Stern
On today's episode, the director of the Bard Center for Study of Hate and author of "Conflict Over the Conflict: The Israel/Palestine Campus Debates," Ken Stern, joins me to discuss the events of October 7th and how the Antisemitism Awareness Act is being used to censor speech. A scholar who developed the working definition of antisemitism used by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA), Ken offers discussions about how political discourse is a more effective way of combatting the hatred of Jews. In the episode, we also touch upon the history of Zionism and whether it is essential for Judaism.
