This spring marks the 25th anniversary of the landmark judgment in the infamous Irving v Lipstadt Holocaust denial case. David Irving sued American academic Deborah Lipstadt after she had described him as a Holocaust denier in her 1994 book, for his claims that Jews had not been systematically exterminated by the Nazis. Given the burden of proof in English libel law being on the defence, it was up to Lipstadt and her publisher Penguin to prove her claims were true that Irving had deliberately misrepresented evidence. In 2000, the Judge found in her favour.Deborah Lipstadt and the lawyers that represented her, Anthony Julius and James Libson, join Michael Gove for this special edition of Coffee House Shots to provide their reflections: on the trial, on what it's like to go to court over something that's widely accepted as settled historical truth, and to discuss why they think antisemitism flourishes in so many forms. They also talk about why the principles of the case are ever more important today as they were 25 years ago.Produced by Patrick Gibbons. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Deborah Lipstadt, the State Department's special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism, joins Margaret Hoover to talk about the surge of hatred against Jews worldwide since October 7th and why she considers it a threat to democracy. Lipstadt, who has studied antisemitism and Holocaust denialism for decades, details the double standard she sees in the muted response to the Hamas attack from organizations and corporations that have quickly spoken out against racism and other injustices in the past. She also questions why women's rights groups have not been more vocal about Hamas' use of sexual violence against women. She reflects on the attitudes driving protests against Israel on college campuses and elsewhere, as well as the prospect that diplomatic progress in the Middle East could quell hostility toward Jews. In addition, Lipstadt addresses China's promotion of antisemitism, dissent within the Biden administration over the war in Gaza, and allegations that Israel is committing genocide.  Support for “Firing Line for Margaret Hoover” is provided by Robert Granieri, Stephens Inc., Vanessa and Henry Cornell, The Fairweather Foundation, The Tepper Foundation, Peter and Mary Kalikow, The Asness Family Foundation, The Beth and Ravenel Curry Foundation, Kathleen and Andrew McKenna through The McKenna Family Foundation, Pfizer Inc., Charles R.

Deborah Lipstadt is a well-known scholar of modern Jewish history, antisemitism, and Holocaust denial. She has written many books. In the 1990s, she was involved in a famous trial against David Irving, the notorious English Holocaust-denier. (She won.) The case was depicted in a 2016 movie, “Denial,” in which Prof. Lipstadt was portrayed by Rachel Weisz. Today, Prof. Lipstadt works in the State Department: as the U.S. special envoy for monitoring and combating antisemitism. She has a lot to say, as you can imagine—very important things to say.

Ambassador Deborah Lipstadt is a noted historian of antisemitism, and serves the State Department as Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism. Violence and threats against Jews have been surging for years.  “We've been seeing [antisemitism] coming from all ends of the political spectrum, and in between,” Lipstadt tells David Remnick. “We see it coming from Christians, we see it coming from Muslims, we see it coming from atheists.  We see it coming from Jews.”  In the aftermath of Israel's military strikes on Gaza, particularly on college campuses, she is very concerned about widespread sentiments that deny Israel a right to exist. While she doesn't believe students or faculty should be penalized for expressing solidarity with Palestinians or Israelis, she believes that the language used by some influential people “has served as a green light to the haters,” she says. “It sort of takes the lid off.” And ethnic prejudice, she notes, rarely limits itself. “Once you start dealing in the stereotypes of that one group, you're going to start dealing with the stereotypes in another group.”

She has written eight books, and four years ago, advised the United Nations on its unprecedented report on global antisemitism. In fact, she joined us on this podcast shortly after the report's release. Since then, she has joined the US State Department in a role that for the first time carries the rank of Ambassador. She joins us again this time in our popup Tel Aviv studio. Ambassador, welcome to People of the Pod. Deborah Lipstadt: Thank you. Manya Brachear Pashman:   America's National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism was adopted in May. Your job primarily deals with US Foreign policy to combat antisemitism. But how does this new domestic strategy affect your work? Deborah Lipstadt: Well, it affects our work and that certainly I was consulted and worked closely with the White House in the shaping of it, my team played a part in helping to shape it people to reach out to and things like that. And there are over 24 agencies involved including the State Department, we're now looking at all the other national strategies to see best practices, what America could possibly adopt. And of course, informally, I'm the administration's most knowledgeable person on antisemitism. So they turned to me quite often for advice, for ideas, etc. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Okay. All right. Well, so as I said, your role is more international. Do you need a domestic counterpart? Does the United States need a domestic antisemitism czar? Deborah Lipstadt: I'm not sure. It's a lot on–the strategy is really run out of the Domestic Policy Council, which until about a week ago, was headed by Ambassador Susan Rice, who was greatly responsible for seeing this thing come to fruition. And we'll see how it works. It's up to them to decide how they want to do it. But I think it's also good that each agency from the usual suspects, as I like to say, homeland security, education, FBI, law enforcement, are involved, but so are so many others. Small Business Administration, Veterans Affairs, Smithsonian, all looking at ways to counter antisemitism, make sure there aren't barriers that are there, whether because of antisemitism or just ignorance. Manya Brachear Pashman:   And second gentleman Doug Emhoff has been certainly-- Deborah Lipstadt: Even before I was sworn in, after I was confirmed, I was in Washington and he asked me if I would come in and visit with him. We had a wonderful visit. We're in touch all the time. And he really feels this very deeply. And I give him great credit because he could easily have said, Look, I'm the first Jew in this position. First second gentleman. We put up a mezuzah for the residence. We have a Hanukkah party. We have a Seder. We do other things. Don't ask me to take the lead on this. But he's taken the lead. He's traveled all over, he traveled with me to Poland and Germany, where I coordinated a meeting for him with other special envoys, just to give him a sense of what other countries were doing.  And I think when he and his staff and other people in the White House who were with us saw that, it sort of energized them to say, my God, other countries have taken this really seriously. They're way ahead of us. We have to do something serious as well. Manya Brachear Pashman:   You know, with that in mind, I mean, if you think about it, your predecessors in this position have kind of made it their business to monitor, sound the alarm about antisemitism in Europe, elsewhere around the world. AJC helped convene that group of envoys at the White House. And so in many ways, the table's turned a little bit in terms of, you know, instead of the United States monitoring and sounding the alarm, these envoys came and advised the United States. Has this kind of mutual mission actually improved the relationship with some of these countries?  Deborah Lipstadt: It's improved the relationship tremendously. We really work as a team, not as a team–each one has its own you know, position, certain things one can get involved in certain things. You know, I lurk and watch what's going on, but I'm not involved in it. But one of the first things I did in fact, it was the same day as last year's AJC Global Forum, which was in New York, I think, at Temple Emanuel. And I was on the stage with Katrina von Schnurbein, the amazing EU envoy on Countering Antisemitism and Enhancing Jewish Life. And then she and I left the meeting with Mr. Lottenberg, Fernando Lottenberg, who's the OAS Special Envoy, and we met with a group of us of special envoys met to talk about how we could work together.  And so we've been meeting and convening. Katrina convened something that the EU others have convened, and then we meet, you know, sometimes we'll meet through the auspices, let's say, we'll be meeting here because many have come for AJC. But it is a government to government when we meet, it's not, convened by someone else. But it's people who speak for their governments coming together, which is quite amazing.  I've had great predecessors in this job. They're all terrific. And were strong supporters of me taking the position, very excited about it from both sides of the aisle. And I'm very grateful for that. But there are differences. First of all, Congress elevated the position to an ambassador before I was in the picture.  So it wasn't for me. And that carries weight in the world of protocol. That means you speak for the President. I see what weight it carries. In fact, I was just in conversation with a Republican senator, around the time of the rollout, because I was briefing him about the national strategy.  And he had been one of those who had pushed for the elevation of it to be an ambassador. And I said, you know, when I first heard you were doing this, I said, Oh, doesn't really matter. I said, I was wrong, you were right. It really enhances the importance, and it shows how America takes this seriously. But my predecessors, certainly amongst the earlier ones, we were the first country to have a position like this. So when something happened in France, and Belgium and Germany, whatever, they would go, and they would say to the government, you know, we take this very seriously, and we think you should take it seriously. Or if they were taking it seriously, we take this very seriously, and what can we do to help you take it seriously, and say, you have a problem, we've got to address it. And now first of all, I go and I said, we have a problem, because we have acknowledged that exists in our country. And sometimes I don't have to go racing as they might have had to, because there's someone else there. There's a local person, there's a national person there, too. So the fight has become much more coordinated, enhanced, and really raised to a government level in a way that it hadn't been previously. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Are there particular lessons that you can recall from any of your predecessors? Any of the envoys that you've taken to heart and realized. Deborah Lipstadt: I spoke to virtually all of them before I took the position. And they each had different advice, and I won't say one or the other, etc. But one the reasons–and I've only been in the job a year, but – building alliances in the State Department. And I'm worried a little bit not because of anything anybody tells me, just natural inclination to worry to be a pessimist so that we can be happily surprised when good things happen or the bad stuff doesn't happen.  But, would I find compatriots in the State Department, would people see me as you know, an add-on, a niche? Would I be operating off by myself? And that hasn't happened. And it's really been quite amazing. Partially thanks to the advice I've gotten, partially, I think, my own interpersonal connections, but I have built really strong alliances. And I'm not saying I have personally, but people in other offices with other portfolios, see this not as a niche issue. But as a central element of American foreign policy. Manya Brachear Pashman:   We hear a lot of statistics of incidents of hate crimes each month each year. And I'm curious if that's what matters most. In other words, does the perception of a community also matter whether it's a Jewish community or any other minority community, if that community perceives a rise in hatred against it? Is that enough to amplify our response? Deborah Lipstadt: The perception of a community is important, perception of an individual. Sometimes, any community, any individual can see things more dire than they are. But I think if anything, the Jewish community has become more aware of certain incidents and more aware of certain things. Give you an example, New York. I think there were a lot of Jews in New York who didn't take seriously some of the antisemitism encountered by Haredi, Hasidic Jews in Brooklyn, you know, who would walk down the street, get their hat knocked off, or get spat upon. And you could say, Okay, what's the big deal?  Well, if you're walking down the street, especially walking with your kids and your hat gets knocked off, suddenly you're looking at your father, or your mother gets a little nervous because she's in, you know, other people that she sees people come in and might be dangerous or whatever. And I think now they take that much more seriously. Have that been happening on the Upper West or East Side. We would have been quicker to respond. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Do you think that that is enough for a government, for example, to amplify a response? Deborah Lipstadt: Well, certainly a local government, this was happening in New York, but as it became more national, and there's something else in the strategy addresses this. That government can't really deal with, but it can call out. And that's the normalization of antisemitism. And the strategy speaks very directly in the beginning, when it's something I'm paraphrasing, when politicians, when actors, when rap stars, when sports figures engage in anti semitism and amplifies it in a way that it hasn't been before. Government can't stop them. We have that pesky thing called the First Amendment and we all treasure it.  Even though sometimes it can make us gnash our teeth, the good comes with the bad, or the bad comes with the good. But the normalization, so with the strategy. And when the strategy was rolled out, I spoke from the podium of the White House, one of the things I said: government can do a lot.  Congress is already doing a lot and is willing to do more. But it calls for an all hands on deck and it has to be a public, the broader society has to be involved in this fight, not just because of protecting fellow American Jews, fellow citizens, but because as I think as listeners to People of the Pod know well, antsemitism is a threat to democracy. I've been talking about it now someone even said to me, the cliche, and I realized that I had been the one to really popularize it, as the canary in the coal mine of democracy. But it's a warning, it's a warning. Manya Brachear Pashman:   You began your tenure with a tour of the Middle East. Saudi Arabia, Israel, United Arab Emirates, Abu Dhabi, right? Deborah Lipstadt: And Dubai. The first stop was Riyadh. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Oh, right. Okay. And in fact, you were just in Abu Dhabi again just a few days ago. Deborah Lipstadt: I was for a second time, right. And where I encountered an AJC's delegation. But AJC has been present in Abu Dhabi in the Emirates for a very long time. Manya Brachear Pashman:   I want to talk a bit about those visits and the Abraham Accords, which is another circumstance that has changed. I mean, your immediate predecessor got to benefit a little bit from the Abraham Accords. But I'm curious if those Accords are removing barriers, helping foster relationships. And you know, that will only continue to improve the relationship between Israel and Muslim majority countries but also, their receptiveness to your message for combating antisemitism.  Deborah Lipstadt: The Abraham Accords are of prime importance. And they've been wholly embraced by the State Department, this administration, and not only embrace, but I've been encouraged to build on them, in part because we see them as a good thing in terms of fostering relations in the region between Israel and these other Muslim majority countries, but also because we see them as enhancing the Middle East enhancing the economy. I mean, it's a great thing when we all go into Ben Gurion Airport and we look up and there's the flight to Atlanta and right in front of it's a flight to Abu Dhabi, you know, or the flight to Detroit, Dubai , you know, it's some people say it's Mashiach, it's the time of the Messiah in that sense.  The Abraham house in Abu Dhabi, which is a mosque, a church and synagogue is magnificent, of course, that's not part of the Abraham accords. So that wasn't, that was generated in 2018, with a visit of Pope Francis to Abu Dhabi, who said, Let us build the church and a mosque, and it was the leadership of the Emirates that said, let's build a synagogue, to make it a complex of the Abraham House, of the Abrahamic faith. So and then of course, Morocco, which refers to its normalization because it's been doing this for quite a while, Morocco that expects 400,000 Israeli tourists this year. I think last year it had 225,000. And then it's just you know, everywhere. And all those things are good things. And then there are countries which are not yet and I've used not yet euphemistically, part of these things, but see them as working and see them as operating. And I think they're very important. Manya Brachear Pashman:   And do you do feel that they are perhaps more receptive to your message and to listening to what you have to say?  Deborah Lipstadt: Yes, of course, I mean, I think even you know, when I went to Riyadh, to Saudi Arabia, I had meetings with high ranking officials, now you can show up and you can meet with the Minister of, I don't know, keeping the paint dry or something like that. Or you can meet with higher level ministers and I met with high level ministers, very productive meetings. And one of my messages was, look, there is a geopolitical crisis in this region, we're well aware that, my country is well aware of it. I work for a government that has hundreds of people actively engaged in addressing this issue.  But that's something in many respects separate and apart from prejudice, and from hatred. And the example, I had this interesting encounter in either Riyadh and Jeddah with an older imam who knew what was meeting with me and he knew what my, what my status was on my remit, was my portfolio was and he said, If Israel solved the Palestinian crisis, there'd be no antisemitism.  So there was a part of me that thought, I think there was antisemitism before there was a Palestinian crisis, I think there was antisemitism, for those in Israel, I think there was antisemitism, Zionism, you need to go back and back and back. But I didn't think that was going to get me anywhere, you know, putting it on my professorial hat, my mortar board as we do at graduation and lecturing him on that. So instead, I said to him, after 9/11, in my country, there was a surge, not of Islamophobia, but Islamic hatred. And as you will remember, I'm sure, there was an attempt at one point to build a Muslim community center, opposite Ground Zero, where the World Trade Center had been.  And in fact that the group that was building it consulted with the Jewish community center of Manhattan, you know, how, what's your experience? What room? Did you build enough? Should we have a gym, swimming pool, you know, et cetera, et cetera. And whatever body whether it was the city council or whatever in New York. New York, the polyglot capital of the United States, refused permission, because they said to build the Muslim community center, adjacent to Ground Zero, when it was Muslims that had destroyed the buildings and murdered the people there, would be an insult. And many of us thought that was wrong. That was prejudice. And I said, why should Muslims in lower Manhattan, a woman who wants a good place for her children to learn about their tradition, or to have an Iftar or whatever it might be a man to go to pray or whatever?  Why should they be denied that right, because other Muslims had destroyed and attacked the buildings? And the man said to me, you're absolutely right. It was prejudice. I said, well, to say that antisemitism is solely dependent on what Israel does or doesn't is the same thing. And he got very quiet. I don't think I changed his mind. But he stopped arguing.  Manya Brachear Pashman:   Do you see any progress toward people understanding it more as a territorial conflict? Deborah Lipstadt: I think so. I hope so. I think it's a continuing, it's not like you get to a point and then well, we're at this point. Now we get to the next point, you know, like I used to lift 20 pounds, I can lose 30 pounds, you know, it goes back and forth. It goes back and forth, depending on the situation. It's a volatile process. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Do you think that getting them to understand it as a territorial conflict would actually fulfill part of your role in terms of combating antisemitism? Deborah Lipstadt: Yes, absolutely. But I think it's also necessary not to do things that are going to aggravate or not to do things that are going to make it harder for some of these countries to follow through with the Abraham Accords, so it cuts both ways. Manya Brachear Pashman:   In May, you and Ambassador Hood attended the annual Lag Ba'omer Festival at the El Ghriba synagogue. Deborah Lipstadt: In Djerba, Tunisia. Manya Brachear Pashman:   The island of Djerba. Tunisia is one of dozens of Arab countries where Jews were forced out and displaced. And I'm curious if you could reflect a little on the situation of Jews in the Middle East and North African countries. Deborah Lipstadt: Tunisia is a different story than Morocco, different story than the Emirates, then Bahrain. In that it does have a very small Jewish community. I think there are 1300 Jews in Djerba, been there, hundreds, thousands you know, years. And it's much more a community in Tunis than in a number of other places. But this festival has been going on for quite a while. And it was really reasserting itself after COVID, after an attack about 20 years ago on the festival. And it was so promising. And when I heard that Ambassador Hood, our American ambassador in Tunis was going, I said, you want company, he said, I'd love it. So we went together.  We visited the school there that is funded by and supported by the Joint American Jewish joint distribution committee, the joint, the JDC, one of the little students showed them how to draw an aleph. It's was very poignant. And we had a wonderful time. And then we went to the festival that night. And it was joy. The night before the deputy minister from the government catered a kosher meal for us, a kosher feast for many of the foreign representatives who were there. And we went to the festival and it was just joyous and we just loved it. We were so happy and meeting people and seeing people and meeting old friends and etc.  And people are the American ambassadors here, which was very exciting. And we stood in a place and I noticed that our security guards were pretty tight security because of course Americans and back to two ambassadors and personnel from American Embassy in Tunis. We're getting nervous I said, it should relax. 24 hours later precisely in that same place, there was a shooting and two guards were killed. Two Jewish one French, Tunisian and once one Israeli Tunisian, were murdered. So it's very sober. Very, very sobering. And Tunisia was that in the beginning, what we say reluctant to acknowledge this as an anti semitic act they talked about as criminality, they talked about it as terrorism. So Ambassador Hood and I together, not together with, but also with president Macron, and the German Foreign Minister, all said this is antisemitism plain and simple. Manya Brachear Pashman:   And swayed them, turned? Deborah Lipstadt: Oh, well, I don't know if we swayed them, but we got them to, he met with the President and met with the chief rabbi. And they changed a little bit, but sometimes it's criminality. Sometimes someone gets mugged on the street, and doesn't matter what they are who they are. But when this guy shot, he was on guard at a naval base. He shot his fellow guard, took a car and drove half hour across the island, to the synagogue, to attack the synagogue. And he didn't say, Oh, they're a crowd of people. I mean, he knew where he was going. And he knew what he was doing. Manya Brachear Pashman:   My last question is, some listeners might not realize that there is actually a separate Special Envoy for Holocaust issues. Deborah Lipstadt: That's right, Ellen Germain. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Your colleague Ellen Germain. Given the rise of Holocaust distortion, trivialization, your candidate, the loss of survivors, how much of what you do now intersects with her work? Deborah Lipstadt: Well, we're very careful. I mean, she's really handling Holocaust reparations issues, property reparations, not that we get directly involved, but in urging countries to address these things. But there's not that much overlap. But there's a great deal of cooperation with us, you know, times traveling together, working together, the more the more. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Are their priorities that you can see for implementing the National Strategy since we started talking about it. Deborah Lipstadt: I think there are so many things in there that can be done large and small. I urge people to download it. Maybe you can put the link on your website. It's downloadable. It's 60 pages, read the whole thing. thing. I have to tell you, I knew it as it was emerging. But at one point when I saw a draft of it, and they asked me to go over it, I was abroad doing it in another country. So complicated. But of course, as I began to read it without going into the specifics even have different issues. I was deeply moved.  Because I don't like to correct my boss, otherwise known as the President of the United States. But when he spoke about it at the White House, he called it the most momentous comprehensive plan the American government has ever addressed and he was wrong. It was the first comprehensive plan that the American government has ever addressed.  Of course, when there've been tragedies and presidents from both sides of the aisle, from all perspectives have condemned, have responded, America has responded. Law enforcement has responded. But this is the first time that the United States government is taking the bull by the horns and saying, What can we do to address this scourge?  And as I said, from the podium of the White House when it was rolled out, probably making history because it's the first time a mishna was quoted from the White House or talmud was quoted from the White House. I quoted from the verse from ethics of the elders, pirkei avot – lo aleicha hamlacha ligmor, v'lo ata ben chorin livatel mimenu. You're not obligated to complete the task, but you're not free from starting, from engaging in it. The United States government has now seriously engaged in it. Manya Brachear Pashman:   Well, thank you so much, Ambassador. Deborah Lipstadt: Thank you.

Look forward to seeing y'all in there.   Hey, Monique Kelly, thank you so much for taking the time to come on and chat with me today about the Jackson Mississippi market. I really appreciate you coming on.   Monique: Yeah, thanks, Michael. I'm so excited to be on with you today.   Michael: Me, too. So let's just jump right into it and then we'll circle back to your background. Why should people be excited about the Jackson Mississippi market?   Monique: Well, it has historically been a really great market for rental properties. People tend to pay a pretty high price point for rentals, I don't really know why. But historically, that's been the way it is and so, you know, it's a great place to invest. You know, the property prices are not too high. But the rent values are pretty high. So you know, it's just a, it's a growing area as well, so just a good a good area to invest in.   Michael: Just love it and give us a little bit of background on who you are as an individual and where you come from and what is it that you're doing in real estate today?   Monique: Well, I grew up in here in Mississippi, my family has been in real estate. So I've been around real estate since I was in diapers. My dad started this company about 40 years ago and he started our company with my grandmother and my aunt and so I've just been around it my whole life. I started selling real estate right outside of college and worked with my mom for several years. We were kind of a team. She's since retired and you know, I do this full time I've been selling since 2007. So and then in the past, like, I'd say three or four years, my main focus has been investors, and most of them are from out of state. So it's been interesting, pretty crazy ride, but I really love it.   Michael: Awesome and I think most of our listeners may not know the difference between like what an investor buyer client versus an owner occupant buyer client looks like. So why did you make the shifts to work with investors and what are some of the differences that you found?   Monique: Well, um, it kind of was just something that happened, honestly, I'd started working with some local investors and then I got a call, you'd like a an open door with Roofstock and so I kind of had a little bit of the experience and my family, they've all been investing, you know, as long as I can remember, they've owned lots of rental properties and so I've seen it firsthand and I've seen you know what a great income that can be for people and so once I started working with Roofstock, it just kind of blew up and that's been my main focus. You know, it's great that I get to meet people from other areas of the country and even over the world, you know, and get to share the great things about Mississippi and most have never been here. So, you know, it's just great to introduce them to Mississippi and the market here and they're usually pretty shocked with the value of the homes that they can purchase here for and get good rent and everything so, but they are different than owner occupants. You know, of course, they're looking at cash flow, and they're looking at numbers and so I tried to find really good deals and properties that are in great shape. So there's not a lot of maintenance up front or issues in the beginning and try to find a good product for a good solid product that's going to bring in some good income. So Jackson is in what's considered Hinds County it's central Mississippi would be, and then around it, you have Madison County and Rankin County and so the population would be, you know, the large population would be in all three of those counties. I would say the main, probably study jobs come from government jobs. It is the state capitol. So we have a lot of state government jobs and then we have local government jobs, I would say probably number two, the employment would be medical and we have a ton of hospitals. We've got the big teaching hospital in Jackson. So you have a lot of med students, nursing students, dental students, and then you've got nurses and doctors and just a lot of people in the medical field that live around here and then I'd also say Trucking is another big industry here. We are centrally located. So if you go north, you hit Memphis, you go south, you hit New Orleans, if you go west, you're gonna hit Dallas and if you go east, you're gonna hit Atlanta. So you have a lot of traffic, and truckers coming through and so that is actually a big source of jobs here is.   Michael: Interesting.     Monique: We did we are… Yeah, yeah. So I'm in Canton, which is part of Madison County, Amazon is building a facility. So that will be a new source of jobs pretty soon. We do have a Continental Tire factory and Clinton, Mississippi, which is part of Heinz and, you know, so there are some other things, but it's pretty diverse here, most of the jobs.   Michael: Fantastic, so for anyone listening, we're gonna be doing a kind of walkthrough of Jackson, Mississippi. So take it away, Monique, where should people be looking to find some of those cash flowing rentals and what neighborhoods are you most excited about?   Monique: Well, okay, so um, I would kind of break it down into three counties. So you've got sort of like the higher income higher rent county would be Madison County and if you look, it's kind of up north of 55, you'll see Madison and if you look up where Lipstadt is right above it, that is actually a brand new city. So it was part of Madison, it still has Madison address, but they just became a city, they've just voted for a sheriff and they're going to vote for a mayor and that part of Madison is growing major. I mean, there are new restaurants coming and just a lot of growth in that area and it's actually not in the city limits. So you have tend to have lower taxes, it's part of the county and that area is where you're going to get the top rents in the whole Jackson metro area. The schools are some of the top schools in the state and that's a big reason why people want to be there and so I would say on average, the rent in that area is going to be around 2300 a month would be the median.   Michael: Wow, okay. Yeah, for like, three to kind of run of the mill home.   Monique: Yeah, you're looking at maybe 16 to 1700 square feet, and you're probably going to get around 2300 a month for that property.   Michael: Right on and where are you seeing purchase prices?   Monique: The median purchase price is around 363.   Michael: All right, cool.   Monique: So but you know, you're able to get a property for under 300, you know, maybe 250 to 300 and rent it out somewhere between 20 320 500. So, also, you know, of course, if you get four bedrooms, you're gonna get closer to 3000 for it.   Michael: Okay. Right on.   Monique: Yeah, so that's, that's a great area, I would say probably the middle part would be Rankin County, which if you go down, where you'll see, Brandon… close to 25. I don't know if you see how a 25 right there. That's going to be in Rankin County and I would consider that sort of kind of like in the middle of the three counties and in that, at that area, I would say the median rent you're gonna get is around 1700. You could probably get close to 2000 or a little more, depending on the size of the house. You know how new it is and there are a lot of new houses in that area as well. So there's still there's growth in there too and they have great schools too and I would say the average price for a house would be around 270 and then I would say so then after that would be Hinds County and that's where Jackson is and it's pretty diverse. I mean, you've got little pockets in there. Have that are going to be a little different and so the numbers I kind of pulled are pretty broad. But for Hinds County, you're looking at an average rent of around 1350. Some of the areas, you might get a little more, you might get closer to 1700. Like in Clinton over here. It's kind of like its own little community. There's a university there and it's actually where I went to school at Mississippi College University and so it's a little bit different than the rest of Hinds County, but and the average price for a house there would be around 207,000.   Michael: Okay, right. So kind of starting to approach that 1% rule, so to speak.   Monique: Yeah, yeah, you'll probably get a little bit more cash flow in Hinds County. But the houses tend to be older. You know, there's tends to be a little bit more maintenance and things there. But, you know, any of those counties are great areas to invest in.   Michael: Perfect and talk to us a little bit, Monique, about how property taxes work out in if the three counties vary drastically, or if statewide, it's kind of similar.   Monique: Well, so we do have homestead exemption in Mississippi and so you know, it that pretty much cuts taxes in half for an owner occupant and so you know, an investor is going to pay almost double, then when an owner occupant pays and each area is different. It depends on if it's in the city, the county, it what fire district it's in and so when I put, you know, upload properties to Roofstock, I tried to do all of that up front and put the investors tax amount into their, you know, Roofstock website so that they're getting the accurate amount and so I'm able to do that sometimes on the tax records, they can they'll let me do a tax estimator type thing and so it just varies depending on the location, how I get the taxes, but.   Michael: Okay and let's just take a kind of shot in the dark for a $250,000 purchase price. What are you estimating ballpark for taxes, is it 1% of the purchase price, is it some other number? How should folks be thinking about that.   Monique: In Jackson, it's a lot higher. So a property and Jack that will and it also depends. So in Mississippi, they don't base it on the actual value of the property, they have an assessed value, and it typically is about 80% lower than the actual value. So what I do is I go look at the tax records, figure out the actual assessed value, and then I can base it off of that. So it just depends. In Jackson, you're gonna pay city taxes, which tend to be a little higher county taxes in school taxes, and Madison, some of the areas you wouldn't pay city would only be county and school and so it can vary a lot with that. But I do try to give an accurate amount when I put in input any properties so that they know that upfront or if you know it have been investors interested in a property and is curious about the taxes, I'm happy to make sure to give them an accurate amount as well.   Michael: Okay, fantastic. Well, that's a really good point to make about the homestead exemption. So for anyone listening out there, if they go on Zillow, and find an owner occupant home and look at the tax record and think, Oh, great, this is the amount I'm going to pay, they should at least be doubling it and then Monique, does the assessed value change on any kind of regular frequency, like here in California, anytime the property is sold, that's when they reassess the property at the price point at which it was purchased. So does a sale trigger reassessment or is it just every couple of years or how does that work?   Monique: It's every couple years, the sale does not trigger it. So I think it's every like four to seven years, it gets reassessed.   Michael: Okay, fantastic and talk to us about some of the things that are kind of maybe nuanced or unique to Jackson or maybe Mississippi in general, when it comes to like home inspections. In California, we have termites, that's a very common thing. So if you see termites, it's not the end of the world as long as the damage isn't super extensive. But if you're not used to that, that can make investors run to the hills. So what should people expect to find what's kind of par for the course in the Jackson market when it comes to home inspections?   Monique: Okay, so in Central Mississippi, we have what's called Yazoo clay in the soil, and it can cause a lot of foundation issues. Just settlement in general. I would say in older homes, it's more common. Now they pretty much will do soil tests, dig up you know, so many feet of the clay and putting good soil so you don't typically see it with newer properties. You might see a little bit of settlement like a little crack in here or there but it's not anything major. But some of the older homes like in Jackson, or even southern brand and a Madison, I mean, depending on the age, it's a little bit more common and so there's a lot of houses that have had foundation work, or they might need it and so I do try to steer people clear from that, just because it can be an ongoing thing. You know, once you repair, it doesn't guarantee that you won't have more movement. You know, because that clay it's going to expand or shrink, depending on how wet it is and we have a lot of rain here in Mississippi. So um, you know, I do try to steer clear that, but I can usually tell, you know, we can look at engineer report and see how extensive the movement is, if it's within so many inches, like three inches, it's not really anything major. But more than that, and it can become a pretty major thing. We also have termites in Mississippi. So I do see some of that, but as long as it's not extensive damage, it's typically okay, those are probably the two major things that you would want to look for.   Michael: Great and what about natural disasters and this might be a silly question. But do you all have hail down there or tornadoes or hurricanes, right, that sort of thing.   Monique: We don't typically get the hurricanes. We're a little too far north from the coast. But we do get hail damage and some wind damage, we can get some pretty straight line winds, and there are tornadoes that come through here. So people might notice if they start looking at disclosures, that roofs are pretty much replaced pretty frequently, and it is due to hail damage, you'll get a storm that comes through and you'll notice in a certain area, all the roofs got replaced around that time period. So but that is that's pretty much it. We pretty much have mild weather here. We don't get a lot of snow, if we get shut down if we get any snow. Because it's so rare and yeah, but we do get a lot of rain. It's pretty wet here and we do get some tornadoes and things like that here.   Michael: Okay. Awesome and kind of in thinking about the some of the natural disasters, and that leads me down the insurance path. What do you see, do you have like a ballpark estimator for what insurance costs are in Jackson?   Monique: I mean, I would say, it just depends on the price of the house, how new the house is how new the roof is. But for a newer house, like around, I don't know, $300,000 that the insurance will probably be about 1000, somewhere around there.   Michael: Okay, awesome, awesome, that's great and for everyone listening who is interested in the Jackson market, definitely be looking at your wind or hail deductibles. Oftentimes, those policies have a different deductible, which is different than the fire. So it's in a high prone area, the insurance companies say no no no, you got to pay a higher deductible for this kind of stuff. So that's great to know. Monique, tell us any final thoughts, things that people should be aware of tips, tricks, advice for folks how to be competitive in today's market or things they could do better in working with you as they're making offers?   Monique: Yeah, so I recently pulled up to see how much inventory we currently have and so right now, for Rankin County, we've got about one month's worth of inventory and then I also pulled up the rentals, and we've got about 1.9 months' worth of inventory. So almost two months, for Madison, for homes for sale, we've got about one month of inventory and then for the rentals in Madison, we've got about a month and a half worth. Hinds County, we've got two months inventory of houses for sale, and for the rentals about two and a half months and so it's still a really competitive market. There's still a lot of buyers that haven't been able to purchase anything yet. So they're still looking still have a lot of investors trying to invest here and so there's still multiple offers and so you have to make competitive offers, you know, to have a chance and so most are gonna sell for above list price right now and I would say the biggest thing that has helped me when writing offers and getting them accepted is if it's not cash, then to add an appraisal clause where you're willing to pay the difference between appraisal price and purchase price and we often cap it just so that the investor feels comfortable with it. But that has been the most successful tool and getting offers accepted and it just helps them be competitive with the cash offers that don't have those contingencies.   Michael: Okay, and so for anyone that's not familiar with what, what Monique is talking about, let's break it down. So let's say you're gonna go buy $150,000 house, and you say, okay, I'm willing and the bank with a bank loan, and the bank is going to come appraise the house, and the bank is only going to lend you 80%, say of what the value of the home is. So if the bank comes in and says, hey, actually, the house is only worth 140 grand, they're only going to give you 80% of 140 and so you've got to come up with that difference to get to that 150 purchase price. That's what you're talking about, right?   Monique: Right, right. Yeah and it's usually not much difference. Um, we're talking five to 10,000, you know, that somebody would be willing to pay the difference for so I'm not seeing your appraisals coming much lower than that. They usually come in at contract price, honestly. But it just gives that amazing set. They're gonna, yeah, yeah, yeah, exactly. But it just gives that seller the assurance that they're going to make a certain amount, and that's very appealing when there's other offers on the table.   Michael: Okay. Great to know, and how many days on market are you seeing most of the properties sit for? I mean, is it, are they getting souped up within hours of getting listed or is it a week? I mean, how fast should people be prepared to move?   Monique: I would say usually within one to two days, those houses are pending. So you know, as soon as it goes on the market, I would make the offer. Sometimes they're giving about three days. But at that point, they have so many offers to shuffle through. A lot of sellers are choosing to do it quicker than that. Just so they don't have to continue with the showings and go through so many offers. Yeah, I'd say a day or two.   Michael: Okay, so for everyone listening out there, if you're ready to move quick, have your pre approval letters, have your proof of funds ready to go and be making strong offers? That's good to know. Well, Monique, thank you so much for taking the time. If people want to learn more about you or reach out to you directly. What's the best way for them to do that?   Monique: They can email me at monique@maselle.com and it's M O N I Q U E @ maselle M A S E L L E or you can call me I have my phone with me pretty much all the time. It's 601-941-4447.   Michael: Amazing. Well, many thank you again, for sharing so much wisdom and knowledge about the Jackson market. I'm sure I'll be chatting soon.   Monique: Thanks so much for having me.   Michael: Yeah you, take care. Okay, everyone, that was our episode for today. A big thank you to Monique for coming on and dropping so much knowledge and wisdom about the Jackson market sounds super interesting and while the things are still flying off the shelves, so go get them while they're hot.

Almost a month after a rabbi and three congregants were taken hostage at a synagogue in Texas, Congress held two hearings related to Jews: A Senate hearing on the position of global antisemitism monitor -- long delayed by Republicans because of dislike toward nominee Dr. Deborah Lipstadt -- and a House hearing on issues with federal nonprofit security grants that help protect Jewish and other communities. The hearings were…interesting. Say hello!

In 2000, renowned Holocaust scholar Dr. Deborah Lipstadt was sued by David Irving for defamation, because she called Irving a Holocaust denier and falsifier of history in her 1994 book Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory. Expert witnesses combed through Irving's research since the 1980s and found that Lipstadt was correct - Irving had deliberately manipulated the historical record, to support his ludicrous claims that most of the evidence of the Holocaust had been invented after the war. Listen to AJC CEO David Harris discuss the impact of the trial, and the quiet, global, multi-year effort he led to generate support for Lipstadt's trial defense, making sure the world never forgets the murder of six million Jews – a historical fact. ___ Episode Lineup: (0:40) David Harris ___ Show Notes: Take action.  Join AJC in calling for the White House to convene a taskforce that will develop a national action plan to fight anti-Jewish hate.  Urge the Senate to confirm Deborah Lipstadt as the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism.  Listen to our most recent episode: Inside the Colleyville, Texas Synagogue Hostage Crisis: Hear from 3 Local Jewish and Muslim Leaders on What It Was Like on the Ground Don't forget to subscribe to People of the Pod on your favorite podcast app, and learn more at AJC.org/PeopleofthePod Keep an eye out for our next episode marking International Holocaust Remembrance, in which we learn about the lost Jewish community of Monastir from Ladino singer and songwriter Sarah Aroeste.  You can reach us at: peopleofthepod@ajc.org If you've enjoyed this episode, please be sure to tell your friends, tag us on social media with #PeopleofthePod, and hop onto Apple Podcasts to rate us and write a review, to help more listeners find us.

Kessler docket Unicorn Riot, Unite The Right On Trial in Charlottesville Former Identity Evropa Organizer Tells Secrets In Trial Deposition Bottom of the Barrel: Charlottesville Trial Defense Attorneys Spread Antisemitism Joshua Smith, one of the attorneys, is representing Matthew Heimbach, Matthew Parrott, and the Traditionalist Worker Party, a neo-nazi group that helped put on Unite the Right in 2017. Calling in remotely to cross-examine a witness on November 11, Smith went on a meandering digression about so-called ‘ethnostates'. He claimed that expert witness and sociologist, Peter Simi, was ‘anti-white' because he wouldn't address Smith's view that China and Singapore are ‘ethnostates', and falsely said that white people are responsible for most advances in civilization and technology. When trying to confuse jurors about sociological concepts like in-groups and out-groups, Smith asked Simi if Hillary Clinton was white supremacist, and soon after he told Judge Norman Moon that cross-examinations can be “conversations” with witnesses, before sheepishly admitting his scattered tangents were “trying to keep it lively for everybody.” Another attorney in the Charlottesville lawsuit trial, Cincinnati-based, James E. Kolenich, is an antisemitic far-right Catholic. Kolenich told the Cincinnati Enquirer in 2018 that his motives in this case were simple: “My willingness to get involved is to oppose Jewish influence in society.” He questioned the accuracy of long-accepted scholarship about the death toll of the Holocaust: “You can't call the Jew Holocaust into question, right? […] Christians really shouldn't fall for that. The Holocaust is the execution, the crucifixion of Christ. The most important event in human history is His Resurrection, not, this Jewish Holocaust even if it did happen.” Kolenich is part of a Catholic splinter tendency that rejects 20th century reforms barring antisemitic theology, telling the Cincannati Enquirer, “The last such council [to modify the Catholic faith] was Vatican II or as we call it, Vatican Jew.” He believes all popes since Vatican II are illegitimate “anti-popes.” Bryan J.

President Joe Biden has appointed Deborah Lipstadt, one of America's preeminent Jewish historians and Holocaust scholars, to serve as the U.S. State Department's special envoy to monitor and combat antisemitism. Listen to our conversation with Lipstadt, which is being re-aired for this special episode, about the troubling rise of contemporary antisemitism from multiple sources and what we can do to stop it. ____ Episode Lineup: (0:40) Deborah Lipstadt  ____ Show Notes: Fill Out Our Audience Survey Here

US President Joe Biden has just decided to nominate Deborah Lipstadt as the next US Ambassador to Combat and Monitor Antisemitism. We interviewed Prof. Lipstadt in 2017 when the movie 'Denial' premiered. The movie depicted her incredible life story. We're re-uploading the episode so that you can listen to it if you haven't yet!

I'm sure Rabbi Sacks Zt'l had no idea the impact of one of his sentences...we never usually do. 

Andrew Cartmel and Matt West discuss the film "Android" (1982)

“The bad days are back” wrote Batya Ungar-Sargon in the Forward in December, “Orthodox Jews are living through a new age of pogroms. This week, as we celebrated the Festival of Lights, there were no fewer than 10 anti-Semitic attacks in the New York area alone.”  Antisemitism is occasionally called “the oldest hatred.” It thrums across continents and eras, finding new targets for old prejudices. But where, exactly, does it come from? Why is it such a hardy weed? And why does this era feel so thick with it?  Deborah Lipstadt, a professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies at Emory University, is the author of Antisemitism: Here and Now. We discuss the earliest forms, tropes, and rationales for antisemitism, and the cultural reasons for their persistence. Lipstadt explains the way right- and left-wing antisemitism differ, and examines the charges of antisemitism levied against some modern politicians, like Donald Trump and Jeremy Corbyn. We talk about antisemitism in the age of social media and rising party polarization. And we talk about the convergence and divergence of antisemitism and anti-Zionism: what distinguishes a legitimate critique of Israel from an antisemitic slur towards it? This episode airs on International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It’s a reminder that the very worst days lie in living memory, in an age more similar our own than we like to admit.  References:  “Why No One Can Talk About The Attacks Against Orthodox Jews” by Batya Ungar-Sargon Book recommendations:  If This is Man by Primo Levi  Still Alive by Ruth Kluger  The Unwanted by Michael Dobbs New to the show?

Listen to the debate from the Battle of Ideas Festival 2019. A recent EU report found 89 per cent of Jews living in member countries feel anti-Semitism has increased over the past decade, while 85 per cent believe it to be a serious problem. Anti-Semitism has traditionally been associated with the political right and with national chauvinism, but today it is often radical Islamists or even leftists, rather than nationalists, who are accused of prejudice against Jews. But can alleged anti-Semitism in the British Labour party really be compared to the fascist Oswald Mosley? Is anti-Zionism a distinct and legitimate position? How best can we define anti-Semitism? As Israel descends into political and, some would say, moral crisis, is it possible to criticise Israel without being anti-Semitic? And most importantly, if anti-Semitism is on the rise, how can we best combat it?

After WW2, Americans were not fans of Nazis. It was a time that if someone were to remark there were fine Nazis, that person would get a fist in the face. That's why it was imperative that the military not let it get out that it was hiring a bunch of Nazi scientists, doctors and technologist who had just committed crimes against humanity to work for us. Strange Country co-hosts Beth and Kelly talk about Operation Paperclip and how the drumbeat to best the Soviet Union led America to give some shitty Nazis citizenship.

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.

Idag träffar Kodjo, Nanna, och Maria förintelseforskaren Deborah Lipstadt som är i Sverige med anledningen av förintelsens minnsedag. 1996 var hon tvungen att bevisa, i en rättegång, att en förintelseförnekare inte talade sanning.

This week at In The Past Lane, the history podcast, I speak with historian Rebecca Erbelding about her new book, Rescue Board: The Untold Story of America's Efforts to Save the Jews of Europe. It’s a fascinating book about a forgotten World War II story about the War Refugee Board, a US agency created in 1944 to help save European Jews from the Nazi genocide. Historians and other scholars have long argued that the US could have done more to disrupt the Nazi efforts to exterminate the Jews of Europe. Erbelding acknowledges the validity of this claim, but says that it’s not the same as saying the US did nothing. She chronicles the work of the War Refugee Board and how it managed, often through creative and off the books ways, to save tens of thousands of Jews in the last 20 months of World War II. In the course of our discussion, Rebecca Erbelding explains: Why US government officials initially resisted demands that it do something to save European Jews from the Nazi genocide. How the War Refugee Board was created by the US government in 1944 to save Jews from the Holocaust.  Why President Franklin D. Roosevelt authorized the creation of the War Refugee Board to save as many European Jews as possible during World War II.  How the US government used threats of post-war prosecution via propaganda to dissuade Europeans from carrying out atrocities against Jews.    How the War Refugee Board used deception to get food and medicine into Nazi concentration camps during World War II. How the Nazis, aware that Americans wanted to save Jews from the concentration camps, offered to release some in exchange for money, food, and war equipment. How the Goodyear Tire Company secretly helped the W.R.B. save thousands of lives during World War II.     Recommended reading:  Rebecca Erbelding, Rescue Board: The Untold Story of America's Efforts to Save the Jews of Europe  Deborah E.

Lipstadt acusó a determinados periodistas e historiadores de negacionistas en su libro "La Negación del Holocausto", fue denunciada por el negacionista británico David Irving, un famoso periodista e historiador admirador de Hitler, y que se querelló en 1996 contra ella por difamación. Entonces Lipstadt se propuso derrotar a Irving y los negacionistas en Inglaterra únicamente con expertos en el ámbito académico, sin llamar a declarar siquiera a un sólo superviviente de la Shoah.

On Friday, a left-leaning Jewish magazine, the Forward, published an article by Ari Feldman titled “Is Jordan Peterson Enabling Jew Hatred?” accompanied by a picture of Adolf Hitler giving the Nazi salute next to Peterson. The Forward explains Vox-style: “Jordan Peterson is a public intellectual adored by neo-Nazis, white supremacists and conspiracy theorists. The neo-Nazi website the Daily Stormer called [him] ‘The Savior of Western Civilization.’” What did Peterson do to become, according to the Forward, comparable to Hitler? In a recent blog post addressing anti-Semitism in the alt-right, Peterson “attributed [Jewish] influence to Jewish intelligence—an old anti-Semitic dog whistle”– Lipstadt said that Peterson’s statements on Jewish intelligence reminded her of Kevin MacDonald, a professor of psychology who the Southern Poverty Law Center has described as “the neo-Nazi movement’s favorite academic.” MacDonald has written several books criticizing Jewish intellectual culture. (Peterson links to a critique of one of MacDonald’s books at the end of his blog post on Jewish intelligence.) Lipstadt said that MacDonald’s academic language obscures the anti-Semitism behind his opinions. She worries the … The post Libel of Jordan Peterson by the Forward—A Story of Journalistic Failure appeared first on Quillette.

"There are facts, there are opinions, and there are lies," says historian Deborah Lipstadt, telling the remarkable story of her research into Holocaust deniers -- and their deliberate distortion of history.

It’s called, History Unfolded: US Newspapers and the Holocaust, and it’s bringing to light thousands of articles that appeared in US newspapers between 1933 and 1945 that told American readers in vivid detail about the Nazi campaign to persecute and exterminate millions of Jews in Europe. And here’s a truly remarkable feature of this project -- anyone can participate as a researcher – including you, or your students, if you’re a teacher. So give a listen to my conversation with Elissa Frankle of History Unfolded and learn how this new digital research initiative is changing the way we understand the American response to the Holocaust.   Website: History Unfolded: US Newspapers and the Holocaust Further Reading Robert H.

"There are facts, there are opinions, and there are lies," says historian Deborah Lipstadt, telling the remarkable story of her research into Holocaust deniers -- and their deliberate distortion of history. Lipstadt encourages us all to go on the offensive against those who assault the truth and facts. "Truth is not relative," she says.

"Existem fatos, opiniões e mentiras", diz a historiadora Deborah Lipstadt, nos contando sobre a notável história de sua pesquisa sobre os negadores do holocausto e sua deliberada distorção da história. Lipstadt encoraja todos nós a prosseguirmos na ofensiva contra aqueles que atacam a verdade e os fatos. "A verdade não é relativa", diz ela.

"Hay hechos, hay opiniones, y hay mentiras", afirma la historiadora Deborah Lipstadt, que nos cuenta la extraordinaria historia de su investigación sobre los detractores del Holocausto y su deliberada manipulación de la historia. Lipstadt anima a todos a continuar la ofensiva contra los que atacan la verdad y los hechos. "La verdad no es relativa", dice.

"Es gibt Tatsachen, Meinungen und Lügen", sagt die Historikerin Deborah Lipstadt, als sie die bemerkenswerte Geschichte ihrer Forschung zu Holocaustleugnern erzählt – und deren bewusste Verzerrung der Geschichte. Lipstadt ermutigt uns alle, gegen jene, die die Wahrheit und Tatsachen angreifen, in die Offensive zu gehen. "Die Wahrheit ist nicht relativ", sagt sie.

One of the nation's foremost experts on Holocaust denial and modern anti-Semitism, Lipstadt's 2005 book, "History on Trial: My Day in Court with David Irving," is the story of her libel trial in London against Irving, who sued her for calling him a Holocaust denier and right wing extremist.The now-famous libel trial occurred when Irving sued Lipstadt over her 1993 book, "Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth and Memory," the first full-length study of the history of those who attempt to deny the Holocaust. The case grew into a six-year legal battle in which Lipstadt prevailed.

Hollywood veteran producer, Gary Foster is known for his projects such as Tin Cup and Sleepless in Seattle. But we were really excited to have a conversation about how his latest project, Denial came to fruition. The movie recounts Deborah E. Lipstadt's legal battle for historical truth against David Irving, who accused her of libel when she declared him a Holocaust denier. It's a story that needs to be told, and we loved hearing how and why Gary fought for the movie to be made. He has so much great advice for producers who have a story to be told.

A book by Deborah E. Lipstadt marks the fiftieth anniversary of the Eichmann trial

Listen to Lipstadt discuss how her writing of "The Eichmann Trial" was informed by her own landmark court case.

When Professor Deborah Lipstadt published Denying the Holocaust: The Growing Assault on Truth & Memory”, she couldn’t imagine that her next book would be detailing the trial she won when Holocaust denier David Irving sued her for libel. In this talk, presented at the Osher Marin JCC, Lipstadt speaks about History on Trial: My Day in Court with a Holocaust Denier and about the state of anti-semitism today, particularly on college campuses.
