Podcasts about antisemitism here

This is the 4th episode of the 3rd Season of PR Unmasked. In this episode, hosted by the Concordia Forum, Muddassar Ahmed sits down in conversation with Ambassador Deborah E. Lipstadt, the current US' Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism. Ambassador Lipstadt has a storied career as a historian, academic, and award-winning author, and in today's episode, she is discussing the growth of antisemitic rhetoric in the US & Europe, its history and what transatlantic communities can do to combat it now, and in the future. Ambassador Lipstadt is also answering questions from Mike Katz, the National Chair of the Jewish Labour Movement; Attorney & Award-Winning Author, Rabia Chaudry; Labour MP for Manchester, Gorton Afzal Khan, and Imam Abdullah Antepli, Associate Professor of the Practice of Interfaith Relations at Duke University. Before being confirmed as Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism in March 2022, Ambassador Lipstadt served as the Dorot Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies at Emory University's Tam Institute for Jewish Studies, which she helped to found. She has also taught at the University of Washington, UCLA and Occidental College. Special Envoy Lipstadt also served as the director of the Brandeis-Bardin Institute and was a research fellow at the Vidal Sassoon International Center for the Study of Antisemitism at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem. Her numerous, award-winning books include: The Eichmann Trial; Denial: Holocaust History on Trial; Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory; and Beyond Belief: The American Press and the Coming of the Holocaust, 1933-1945. She received the National Jewish Book Award three times, most recently in 2019 for Antisemitism: Here and Now. Her biographical study of Golda Meir will be published by Yale University Press in 2023.

Is anyone simply good or bad? Can anyone actually be complicated? It feels as though we live in a world where people can only be good or bad and the potential to fully grasp the complexity of a human being is slipping away. Today on the Spiritual Spiral, I begin to turn the direction of the show beyond just the impact of technology. Of course, the show will always have a technology driven focus, but I want to dive deeper and talk about the complexity and fragility of life. I still can't get Kobe Bryant's tragic and sudden death out of my mind so I felt inspired to talk a little further about the complexity of Kobe Bryant. I also talk about forgiveness and do we as a society have a way of forgiving professional athletes as long as they can perform well on the court? I also play a clip from a recent Ezra Klein show where Ezra is talking with Deborah Lipstadt, a professor of Modern Jewish History and the author of Antisemitism : Here and Now. It feels as though we live in a society where everyone is their own gatekeeper and anyone can say just about anything. Is freedom of speech necessarily a good thing especially if there are no dependable gatekeepers anymore? If you enjoy the show, there are a few things you can do that would be incredibly helpful.

SPEAKERS Deborah Lipstadt Ph.D., Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies, Emory University; Author, Antisemitism: Here and Now Marc Dollinger Ph.D., Richard and Rhoda Goldman Endowed Chair in Jewish Studies and Social Responsibility, San Francisco State University—Moderator This program was recorded in front of a live audience at Congregation Kol Shofar in Tiburon, California on July 25th, 2019.

Over the past several years, there has been a noticeable uptick in anti-Semitic rhetoric and incidents from college campuses in the United States to terrorist attacks against Jews throughout Europe and, in 2018 and 2019, the tragic hate crimes at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh and Poway Synagogue outside San Diego. Marin County has also not been immune, with anti-Semitic symbols found in county schools this past school year. A hatred long thought to be laid to rest, anti-Semitism from both sides of the political spectrum has again become a visible part of American society. No one knows this issue better than Deborah Lipstadt, a professor of modern Jewish history and Holocaust studies at Emory University. Actress Rachel Weisz portrayed Lipstadt in Denial, a film based on her book History on Trial: My Day in Court with a Holocaust Denier. Lipstadt's new book, Antisemitism: Here and Now, has been hailed as one of the most important works on the issue. Where is this hatred coming from? Is there any significant difference between left-wing and right-wing anti-Semitism? What role has the anti-Zionist movement played? And what can be done to combat this latest manifestation of an ancient hatred? Please join us as Lipstadt makes a special visit to Marin County to discuss these questions and what can be done about the the rise of anti-Semitism locally and nationally.

Holocaust scholar Deborah Lipstadt, in her new book, Antisemitism: Here and Now, turns to the causes and forms of anti-Jewish hatred: the most-ancient of conspiracy theories. I interviewed Lipstadt for an article in Publishers Weekly, but much was left on the cutting-room floor. Lipstadt kindly allowed me to run our entire interview in my podcast. I begin with my own first anti-Semitic experience from my early childhood in Georgia. Then Lipstadt and I discuss a range of topics, from the Women's March and Alice Walker, to the roots of anti-Semitism and what we can do about it.

Those who openly hate Jews are having a dangerous revival -- just look at Charlottesville and Pittsburgh -- while those in positions of political power are perpetuating classic antisemitic tropes (President Trump and Rep. Omar, to name a few). Why now; what lies behind this growing trend? How similar and/or different is it from previous manifestations of antisemitism? How do you differentiate between antisemitism on the political Right and Left? In this episode, Prof. Deborah Lipstadt and I discuss these issues and many more. Prof. Lipstadt is the Dorot Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies in the Tam Institute of Jewish Studies at Emory, and author of many famous books, including "The Eichmann Trial," and "Denying the Holocaust." Most recently, she wrote Antisemitism: Here and Now, a book I would highly recommend, not only for its deep insights on antisemitism, but the smooth flow that makes it sometimes feel like a thrilling novel. It is on Amazon at: https://www.amazon.com/Antisemitism-Here-Deborah-Lipstadt/dp/0805243372. Show Notes: Prof. Lipstadt's article in the Times of Israel on the weaponization on antisemitism: https://blogs.timesofisrael.com/jewish-myopia-in-a-perfect-storm-of-anti-semitism/ The Dr. Erica Brown article mentioned: https://ejewishphilanthropy.com/purim-and-the-first-antisemite-a-study-guide-for-deborah-lipstadts-antisemitism-then-and-now/ Favorite Podcast: “The Daily,” and “How I Built This” Most insightful people to follow on Social Media: Jeffery Goldberg, Bret Stephens, Yair Rosenberg Books that have most shaped your thinking: "Survival in Auschwitz," and "Still Alive" by Ruth Kluger

In today's episode, we're joined by Professor Deborah Lipstadt, an expert in Holocaust studies. Professor Lipstadt helps us understand the controversies surrounding the Women's March and Representative Omar, and she advises us on how to thoughtfully discuss and critique America's relationship with Israel. But first, we dive into the week's news. Paul Manafort received 43 additional months in prison from Judge Amy Berman Jackson, and he's been indicted by Manhattan's District Attorney on state charges. After great anticipation, Beto O'Rourke has announced his candidacy for the Democratic Party's nomination. We're a little confused by his splashy Vanity Fair rollout and campaign announcement video. We also talk about Operation Varsity Blues and the state of college admissions, wealth, and parenting in America. Sarah recommended these three episodes of Revisionist History: Carlos Doesn't Remember, Food Fight, and My Little Hundred Million.Thanks again to Professor Lipstadt for joining us in conversation. She is the Dorot Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies at Emory University.
