He's got a unique Pittsburgh flair, not that Blue Collar Steel Town would embrace having flair. He's also, above all, a fantastically authoritative arbiter. And so I invited Dave on to “arbit” on a range of topics including but not limited to…* What's America's Mount Rushmore of regional accents? * Which American accent would you want your hypothetical wife to have?* We want Southern accents in pilots?* Dave Portnoy as Michigan homer on Fox? Fair or foul?* The problem with athlete broadcasters * Great pro athlete, bad broadcaster? * Moralizing sports terms like “Don't get pass happy!”* Domes for NFL teams, yay or nay?* Can tiny Floyd Mayweather be the GOAT fighter if so many could kick his ass?* Ban the tush push? * Field goals are too easy (unless you're Jake Moody)House of Strauss is a reader-supported publication.

Loving the NFL tournament we're doing at SportsPredict.com, headed up by Steve Kuhn (even if Brandon Aubrey's leg kicked away my dreams).

I'm declaring this JOURNALISM WEEK on the HoS podcast feed. Today we've got the great Tyler Dunne talking about his bombshell series on Bears quarterback Caleb Williams. On Thursday, we should also have Pablo Torre on another big story you might have heard of. Today's pod with Tyler gets to what happened behind the scenes with Caleb and the Bears + why many in the sports media became too defensive on Williams' behalf. It's a good one. Reminder: Every week of the NFL season, we're doing a prediction contest at SportsPredict.com (Password: HOS). It's not gambling, it's free of charge, and it will involve prizes. You just pick game events and track your status on a leaderboard. So far it's been a lot of fun, even if I'm badly trailing my audience members. Thanks for reading House of Strauss!

Five former Ohio State wrestlers—who say they were victims of the late Dr. Richard Strauss—authored a letter in early February 2020, urging Ohio's Inspector General to investigate Les and Abigail Wexner. In their five-page appeal, they request two investigations: first, into Abigail Wexner's alleged role in Jeffrey Epstein's assault of Maria Farmer at the Wexners' New Albany estate; and second, into any relationship between Epstein, the Wexner family, and Ohio State University. The wrestlers specifically cite Abigail's position as vice chair of OSU's Board of Trustees and question why the university continues its ties with the Wexners amid such serious allegationsThe letter further emphasizes parallels between how Ohio State ignored complaints against Strauss and its handling of Epstein-related allegations. The wrestlers assert that the university has repeatedly turned a blind eye to sexual abuse and “offers only the pretense of caring,” especially given Epstein's significant contributions—including to the Wexner Football Facility—and his donor relationship with OSU. They argue that to properly address the abuse legacy and protect current and future students, the university must sever any inappropriate ties with "pedophiles and sex traffickers and those who enabled them, including both Abigail and Leslie Wexner."to contact me:bobbycapucci@protonmail.comsource:https://www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news/former-ohio-state-wrestlers-call-investigation-university-s-ties-jeffrey-n1134071Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-epstein-chronicles--5003294/support.

Do you struggle motivating young people? Well in this episode, Becky sits down with Tyler Strauss of Vectro Marketing to talk about how their business model focuses on the develpment of young adults. He shares his journey—how he got his start, the work ethic that has carried him forward, and his passion for helping the next generation reach their dreams. Tyler shares insights on leadership, growth, and what it really takes to manage and motivate today's youth.Whether you're an entrepreneur, a mentor, or simply someone who values grit and determination, this conversation will leave you inspired to push harder and dream bigger.
So, like many of you, I love thinking about games, probabilities and market inefficiencies. And, like many of you, I have profound reservations with regard to the sports betting conquest of America. With that in mind, I'm proud to announce a new sponsor at House of Strauss: Sportspredict.com. The goal of my new advertiser is to host a place for sports predictions that isn't gambling. There are no bets made here, but there are picks. The idea is to compete and demonstrate predictive ability absent insidious financial downside. I encourage HoS subscribers to join the NFL picks pool this season, free of charge, and compete for a prize (to be determined later). If nothing else, you can demonstrate NFL intellectual superiority over an idiot who liked Dallas' Micah Parsons trade. Oh, and access code is: HOS.Steve is the founder of this company but I wouldn't have him on just due to that. He's also a House of Strauss subscriber, and lurker in the BCC Chat. Put simply, he's one of us. He's prone to novel theories of his own and believes that a lot of money is left on the table by our most prominent sports franchises. In this pod we discuss topics that include, but aren't limited to…* The appeal of a non gambling sports prediction site* What makes for a good predictor? * My two NFL picks in Week 1, and the market inefficiencies targeted with them* NFL coaches are still committing 4th down malpractice* Major college coaches are still committing “Go for 2” malpractice* Steve's “Fourth and Smart” idea that could revolutionize special teams play* NBA teams are declining in “2 for 1” usage* Steve loves the BCC ChatHouse of Strauss is a reader-supported publication.

Episode: 2501 Nietzsche, Strauss, Kubrick, and a Trilogy of Metaphor. Today, a story — in three parts.
In this timely episode of What's Best For The Patient Is Best For Business, host Jerry Durham is joined by two powerhouse voices in healthcare: Angela Diaz, PT, VP of Market Development at TailorCare, and Dana Strauss, PT, DPT, a physical therapist turned health policy strategist.Recorded in the wake of CMS's monumental 2025 Physician Fee Schedule proposed rule, this conversation is a masterclass in translating complex policy into actionable business strategy. Jerry, Angela, and Dana dissect the new regulations and mandatory models, moving beyond the headlines of reimbursement cuts to uncover the significant opportunities hidden within for forward-thinking physical therapy practices.They break down the new ambulatory specialty model for low back pain, the WISER model aimed at reducing wasteful spending, and the TEAM model holding hospitals accountable for 30-day post-discharge care. The discussion provides a clear roadmap for PTs to pivot from being siloed service providers to becoming indispensable, collaborative partners in a value-based care system.Key Takeaways:• Why the conversion factor is only a small piece of the reimbursement puzzle and how PTs/OTs were inadvertently grouped with specialists, leading to a potential negative impact.• How to leverage data to demonstrate your value to physicians and health systems participating in new mandatory models (like the ambulatory specialty model for low back pain), making you a sought-after partner instead of an ancillary service.• The critical difference between capitation and true value-based care, and why attaching your payment to quality outcomes is the only sustainable path forward.• A practical strategy for engaging referring physicians by focusing on their pain points and asking, "What can I do to help you be successful in this new model?"• Why the future of PT isn't about doing less but about providing the right care at the right time—including phone calls, remote monitoring, and self-care guidance—to improve outcomes and reduce the total cost of care for a population.Tune in for an empowering conversation that will change your perspective from one of uncertainty to one of opportunity, proving that by focusing on collaboration and patient outcomes, you can future-proof your practice and thrive in the new landscape of healthcare. If you'd like to learn more about Strata EMR & RCM and achieving a 99.99% reimbursement rate for your PT, OT, or SLP Clinic head over to stratapt.com and book a demo with their team!
Beloved Countermelody favorite Helen Donath celebrated her 85th birthday on 10 July. In honor of that milestone, I once again celebrate her (which I've done so often, but I don't think anyone is complaining!) This episode features the venerated soprano singing the music of Richard Strauss. In 1976 and 1981 she recorded two albums of Lieder for EMI, both accompanied by her husband, pianist and conductor Klaus Donath, each of which included a selection of songs by Strauss. In addition, I offer recordings of Donath singing various operatic excerpts, both live and studio, of her acclaimed Sophie in Rosenkavalier and Zdenka/o in Arabella. In addition, two late career Donath rarities. First is a concert performance of Die ägyptische Helena live from the Salzburg Festival in the summer of 2003 in which Donath sings the challenging role of Aithra with a freshness and radiance that is breathtaking. The episode concludes with an extraordinary live 2000 recording of Donath performing the Vier letzte Lieder, a tribute to the natural progression of her voice into the jugendlich dramatisch repertoire as she aged. Vocal guest stars include Júlia Várady (who today celebrates her 84th birthday!), Doris Soffel, and Deborah Voigt. Let us extend our hearty good wishes and affection to La Donath, who is finally living in well-earned Ruhestand, after a career that extended well into her 70s. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

Dans J'ai choisi la vie, Monique Lévi-Strauss, livre un récit intime et profond à travers une série d'entretiens menés par l'Académicien Marc Lambron. Ce livre est bien plus qu'une autobiographie : c'est une traversée du siècle, une plongée dans les souvenirs d'une femme qui a vécu les bouleversements majeurs du XXè siècle avec dignité, lucidité et une élégance rare. Pour IDÉES, Pierre-Edouard Deldique est parti à sa rencontre. Née en 1926, fille d'une mère juive et d'un père belge, Monique Lévi-Strauss a connu l'horreur du nazisme en Allemagne, où sa famille s'est installée en 1939. Elle y a vécu dans la peur constante d'être dénoncée, une expérience traumatisante qu'elle partage avec une sincérité bouleversante. Après la guerre, elle part aux États-Unis avant de revenir en France, où elle rencontre Claude Lévi-Strauss, qu'elle épousera en 1954. Monique n'est pas seulement la compagne du célèbre anthropologue. Elle est aussi une chercheuse reconnue, passionnée par les textiles anciens, notamment les châles, auxquels elle a consacré une partie de sa carrière. Elle a accompagné son mari dans ses expéditions, relu ses manuscrits, et participé activement à ses réflexions, tout en conservant son indépendance intellectuelle. Le livre est construit comme une conversation à bâtons rompus entre deux esprits brillants. On y découvre les goûts de Monique pour l'art, la littérature, la nature, mais aussi ses réflexions sur les grands événements du siècle. Elle évoque avec tendresse et humour sa vie, son admiration pour les écrits de son mari, dont elle fut la première lectrice exigeante. À ne pas manquer. Programmation musicale : - Jean-François Zygel, Antoine Hervé : Paris ; Sceaux.
durée : 01:58:37 - Sir Thomas Beecham l'excentrique - par : Christian Merlin - La vie musicale britannique n'aurait pas été la même sans lui. Chef d'orchestre, mécène et producteur, il créa la saison lyrique de Covent Garden, fonda le London Philharmonic et le Royal Philharmonic et fit connaître Strauss et Sibelius en Grande-Bretagne, avec une excentricité très anglaise. - réalisé par : Marie Grout Vous aimez ce podcast ?

I have spent the past week planning forthcoming episodes and last night I realized I had to “throw together” something for this weekend's episode. When this happens, it can often result in a very eclectic program, indeed, and one which many of my listeners find to be among the most enjoyable Countermelody episodes. I have collected more than enough material for at least a dozen of my so-called “Rescue Mission” episodes, in which I feature artists to whom an entire episode has already been devoted, but for whom I have unearthed additional recordings. For today's episode, I decided to focus exclusively on duets, featuring at least one singer of each pair who has already been heard (sometimes quite recently) on the podcast. And thus we have David Rendall singing Erik in The Flying Dutchman opposite Rita Cullis; Renata Scotto (with Carlo Bergonzi) in Elisir; April Cantelo in Paul Hindemith's Cardillac; Maureen Lehane as Penelope in Il ritorno d'Ulisse in Patria; Carol Neblett as Donna Elvira; and Helen Donath (with Deborah Voigt in Strauss's rare Die ägyptische Helena). Also heard are operas by Gottfried von Einem, Giuseppe Verdi, Lee Hoiby, and Carl Orff featuring Christa Ludwig, John Reardon, Grace Bumbry, Edda Moser, and upcoming Countermelody featured artists John Bröcheler, Roland Hermann, and Eberhard Wächter. The episode concludes with the unlikely pair of Ileana Cotrubaş (pictured) and Jorma Hynninen (two of my most revered singers) as the title characters in a transcendent live recording of Pelléas et Mélisande. Countermelody is a podcast devoted to the glory and the power of the human voice raised in song. Singer and vocal aficionado Daniel Gundlach explores great singers of the past and present focusing in particular on those who are less well-remembered today than they should be. Daniel's lifetime in music as a professional countertenor, pianist, vocal coach, voice teacher, and author yields an exciting array of anecdotes, impressions, and “inside stories.” At Countermelody's core is the celebration of great singers of all stripes, their instruments, and the connection they make to the words they sing.

When you adjust for inflation, OT and PT reimbursement is down around 40% since 2002 on our key CPT codes. Now the 2026 Physician Fee Schedule proposed rule has ANOTHER cut to OT written in pencil. We simply cannot sustain continued cuts to the value of our services. So, we clearly need to reconsider our advocacy approach and identify key opportunities to help influence meaningful change.. At OT Potential we are equipping YOU to raise your voice. We are going to spend an hour diving deep into the relevant parts of the new proposed rule, so you can understand the challenges and opportunities. We'll be led by The incredible Dana Strauss, a doctor of physical therapy and healthcare public policy expert.We'll share the comment letter that OT Potential has drafted to share with CMS, so you have a template to work from by the deadline on Sept. 12th.Support the show

Sports bet discourse continues to burble on the BCC Chat, and I'm adding more fuel…We've had the Man Who Would Ban Sports Betting and now we have the Sports Betting Man.

Topics include but aren't limited to…* The problem with the Sharp Lifestyle* What is Raheem's “model” for making bets* Is losing also addictive?* Should prop bets be banned? * Raheem watches every pro basketball league and believes the NBA is unique in superstar coddling * Josh Allen is great, not a choker, and also “not who people want him to be” * Do we need a new term for “point shaving” now that players tank for props?* Is Pro Football Focus astrology for dudes?House of Strauss is a reader-supported publication.

CannCon and Ashe in America continue their deep dive into Strauss and Howe's The Fourth Turning, unpacking Chapter 4 with insight, humor, and plenty of historical parallels. From Mount Rushmore's symbolic generational archetypes to the Renaissance, Reformation, and the birth of America's cyclical patterns, the hosts explore how prophets, nomads, heroes, and artists shape history in repeating turnings. They connect past awakenings, crises, and unravelings to today's cultural and political landscape, drawing out lessons on institutions, family, society, and the rhythm of generational change. With lively banter, sponsor shout-outs, and even a few tangents about smoothies, protein shakes, and pets, this episode blends serious discussion with the community vibe that makes Badlands Book Club a listener favorite.
The eighth extract from our exclusive 2005 Ashes video series - the (fifth) Oval Test. The climax to the series had a long and very public build up as the nation clung to the hope that England could finally get their hands on the urn that had eluded them since the 1980s. Would Simon Jones be fit? Would Glenn McGrath recover? Could Shane Warne conjure more miraculous deliveries? Did Freddie Flintoff have anything left? Would Kevin Pietersen relinquish his dead mongoose hairdo? Who would lift the urn? In thio extract we hear from McGrath, Flintoff, Vaughan, Strauss, Jones, and Langer as the match takes shape.

Guy Haberman, who's filling in right now for the legendary Greg Papa, is busy, but he made time for us. Since Guy considers me a “football outsider,” we decided to have fun with that status. In this podcast, I operate as Football Skeptic, wondering why the sport is how it is, and questioning if indeed it should be. Because you can tell me I'm an idiot here or in the Group Chat. Topics include…* Should NFL teams just never practice in preseason because Full Health would be a massive Week 1 advantage? * Are injuries luck? * Does my defensive shrinkage theory explain why NFL offense is slipping? * Am I a FOOL for wanting an NFL defense with 11 fast totally interchangeable guys?* Is Kyle Shanahan actually a genius? * Am I biased against Shanahan because he's inarticulate? * What determines which NFL positions get money? Is it merit based?* Bill Belichick, Tom Brady skeptic? * Why did the 49ers lose the Super Bowl by not expecting a predictable play?* It's about Acceptable Quarterback, not Exceptional QuarterbackHouse of Strauss is a reader-supported publication.

Jews vs. Rome: Two Centuries of Rebellion Against the World's Mightiest Empire (Simon & Schuster, 2025) by Barry Strauss recounts the history and events of three major uprisings: the Great Revolt of 66–70 CE, which led to the destruction of Jerusalem and the Temple, culminating in the Siege of Masada, where defenders chose mass suicide over surrender; the Diaspora Revolt, ignited by heavy taxes across the Empire; and the Bar Kokhba Revolt. Strauss has a way with telling stories that makes his subjects come alive. One walks away from his book not just knowing what happened, but with an appreciation for the different voices in the room, those supporting rebellion, those siding with Rome, the local leaders at the time, and the Roman governors and emperors who suppress these rebellions. We meet pivotal figures such as Simon Bar Kokhba but also some of those lesser-known women of the era like Berenice, a Jewish princess who played a major role in the politics of the Great Revolt and was improbably the love of Titus—Rome's future emperor and the man who destroyed Jerusalem and the Temple. Today, echoes of those battles resonate as the Jewish nation faces new challenges and conflicts. Jews vs. Rome offers a captivating narrative that connects the past with the present, appealing to anyone interested in Rome, Jewish history, or the compelling true tales of resilience and resistance. Barry Strauss is a leading historian of antiquity and the author of numerous books. He is a former Chair of Cornell's Department of History as well as a former Director of Cornell's Judith Reppy Institute for Peace and Conflict Studies, where he studied modern engagements from Bosnia to Iraq and from Afghanistan to Europe. He is also Corliss Page Dean Fellow at the Hoover Institution. Rabbi Marc Katz is the Rabbi at Temple Ner Tamid in Bloomfield, NJ.

Transcript of the Interview: Manya Brachear Pashman: Adam Louis-Klein is a PhD candidate in anthropology at McGill University, where he researches antisemitism, Zionism, Jewish peoplehood, and broader questions of indigeneity and historical narrative. His work bridges academic scholarship and public commentary, drawing on field work with indigenous communities in the Amazon and studies in philosophy at Yale, The New School and the University of Chicago. He writes on translation and the politics of peoplehood across traditions, and is committed to developing a Jewish intellectual voice grounded in historical depth and moral clarity. He blogs for The Times of Israel, and he's with us today to talk about his experience emerging from the Amazon, where he was doing research after October 7, 2023, and discovering what had happened in Israel. Adam, welcome to People of the Pod. Adam Louis-Klein: Thank you so much for having me. It's a real pleasure to be here on this podcast with the American Jewish community. Manya Brachear Pashman: So tell us about the research that you are doing that took you into the depths of the Amazon rainforest. Adam Louis-Klein: So I work with a group called the Desano people who live in the Vaupés region, which is a tributary of the upper Rio Negro. Part of it's in Brazil, part of it's in Colombia today. I went there because I was really interested in trying to understand how people were often seen at the margins of the world, the periphery of the global economy. See themselves and their own sort of role in the cosmos and in the world in general. And what I found actually is that these people see themselves at the center of it all, as a unique people, as a chosen people. And that was something that really inspired me, and later led me to rethink my own relationship to Jewish peoplehood and chosenness, and what it means to be a kind of indigenous people struggling for survival and recognition. Manya Brachear Pashman: So were you raised Jewish? Did you have a Jewish upbringing? Adam Louis-Klein: Yeah, I was raised as kind of a cultural and reform Jew. I wouldn't say that Israel was super present in our lives, but we did travel there for my younger brother's Bar Mitzvah at the Kotel, and that did have an impression on me. And then later on, I wear a wristband of Brothers for Life, which is a charity for injured Israeli soldiers. But as time went on, I got involved in these radical academic scenes. And you know, my own field, anthropology, has fundamentally turned against Jewish peoplehood and Israel, unfortunately. But it was really in the Amazon, actually, that my journey of Teshuvah and rediscovering my Jewishness and the importance of Jewish peoplehood was really re-awoken for me. Manya Brachear Pashman: You were involved in these radical circles. Did you ascribe to some of the beliefs that a lot of your academic colleagues were ascribing to? Did you start to question the legitimacy of Israel or the actions of the Israeli government? Adam Louis-Klein: I think I started to ascribe to them in a kind of background and passive way. In the way that I think that many people in these communities do. So I had actually learned about Israel. I did know something. But as I wanted to kind of ascribe to a broader social justice narrative, I sort of immediately assumed when people told me, that Israelis were the ones doing the oppression and the injustice, that that had to be true. And I didn't question it so much. So it's ironic that those spaces, I think, that are built around critical thought, have become spaces, in my opinion, that are not so critical today. And I think we really need a critical discourse around this kind of criticism, sort of to develop our own critical discourse of what anti-Zionism is today. Manya Brachear Pashman: So what inspired the research? In other words, so you're involved in these radical circles, and then you go and immerse yourself with these tribes to do the research. What inspired you to do it, and was it your Jewishness? Adam Louis-Klein: So I think what led me to anthropology was probably a kind of diasporic Jewish sensibility. So I'd studied philosophy before, and I was very entrenched in the Western tradition. But I was kind of seeking to think across worlds and think in translation. I've always kind of moved between countries and cities, and I think that's always been an intuitive part of who I am as a Jew. And anthropology was founded by Jews, by Franz Boas, Emile Durkheim, Claude Lévi-Strauss, so I think that's kind of part of what brought me there. But I ended up rediscovering also the meaning of, you know, homeland as well, and what it means to be part of a people with a unique destiny and relationship to territory and land. And that made me understand Zionism in a completely new light. Manya Brachear Pashman: And did you understand it when you were there? Did you come to these realizations when you were there, or did you start to piece all of that together and connect the dots after you emerged? Adam Louis-Klein: So part of my research looks at how indigenous people engage with Christian missionaries who try and translate the Bible into indigenous languages. So when that encounter happens, it's actually quite common throughout the world, that a lot of indigenous people identify with the Jewish people quite strongly. So this might sound a little counterintuitive, especially if someone's used to certain activist networks in which indigeneity is highly associated with Palestinians, Jews are treated now as settler colonists, which is basically the opposite of indigeneity. And that's become a kind of consensus in academia, even though it seems to fly in the face of both facts and our own self understanding as Jews. So I saw that in the Amazon, in the way people at the margins of the world who might not already be integrated in the academic, activist kind of scene, sort of organically identify with the Jewish people and Israel. And they admire the Jewish people and Israel, because they see in us, a people that's managed to maintain our cultural identity, our specific and distinct civilization, while also being able to use the tools of modernity and technology to benefit us and to benefit the world. So I think that also kind of disrupts some primitivist notions about indigenous people, that they should remain sort of technologically backwards, so to speak. I think that they have a more nuanced approach. Manya Brachear Pashman: So I guess, what did you discover when you did emerge from the Amazon? In other words, October 7 had happened. When did you emerge and how did you find out? Adam Louis-Klein: So I'd been living in a remote Desano village without internet or a phone or any connection to the outside world for months. And then I returned a couple days after October 7 to a local town, so still in the Amazon, but I was signing onto my computer for the first time in months, and I remember signing onto Facebook and I saw the images of people running from the Nova Festival. And that was the first thing that I saw in months from the world. So that was a very traumatic experience that sort of ruptured my sense of reality in many ways, but the most difficult thing was seeing my intellectual milieu immediately transform into a space of denial or justification or even just straightforward aggression and hate to anyone who showed any solidarity with Israelis in that moment, or who saw it as a moment to to say something positive and inspiring and helpful about the Jewish people. That was actually seen as an act of violence. So I went to Facebook, and I don't remember exactly what I said, I stand with the Jewish people, or with Israelis, or Am Yisrael Chai, or something like that. And many people in my circles, really interpreted that as an aggression. So at that point, it was really strange, because I'd been living in the Amazon, trying to help people with their own cultural survival, you know, their own struggle to reproduce their own civilization in the face of assimilation and surrounding society that refuses to validate their unique identity. And then I came back to the world, and I was seeing the exact same thing happening to my own people. And even stranger than that, it was happening to my own people, but in the language of critique and solidarity. So the very language I'd learned in anthropology, of how to support indigenous people and sort of to align myself with their struggles was now being weaponized against me in this kind of horrible inversion of reality. Manya Brachear Pashman: Had you sensed this aggressive tone prior to your time in the Amazon and when you were involved with these circles? Adam Louis-Klein: No, I'd never witnessed anything like this in my life, and so it took some real searching and going inward, and I was still in the jungle, but encountering all this anti-Zionist hate online from people I thought were my friends. And I had to really ask myself, you know, maybe I'm in the wrong, because I've never seen people act like . . . people who are scholars, intellectuals who should be thinking critically about antisemitism. Because antisemitism, you know, we talk a lot about in the academy, critical race theory. So we look at ideologies, tropes, and symbols that are used to dehumanize minority groups, and we learn to be skeptical. So we learn that there are discourses that speak at times, in languages of reason, of justice, even that are actually biased, structurally biased, against minorities. So then I was deeply confused. Why did these same people not know how to apply those same analytics to Jews? And not only did they not know how, they seemed to think it was offensive to even try. So that was really strange, and I had to kind of think, well, you know, maybe I'm wrong, you know, I think there's a process of they've attempted to sort of stabilize this consensus at such a degree. That Israel is committing genocide, that Israel is a settler colonial entity that is fundamentally evil, basically. And Israelis are fundamentally oppressors. They've created a space it's almost impossible to question them. And it took me a long time to emerge and to come to that realization that I think anti-Zionism is really a discourse of libel, fundamentally. And these accusations, I wouldn't say, are offered in good faith. And it's unfortunately, not much use to try and refute them. And so instead, I started writing, and I started trying to analyze anti-Zionism itself as an object of critique and as an ideology that we can deconstruct. Manya Brachear Pashman: So did this change the course of your academic research? In other words, you said you started writing, are you writing academic articles, or is it more The Times of Israel blog and your more public writings? Adam Louis-Klein: So I've been writing publicly. I started writing on Facebook, and then the readership on Facebook started to grow, and then I sent it to the Times of Israel. And I do have some plans lined up to try and get this material out in the academic context as well. Because I think that's really important, that we build parallel academic spaces and our own language of academic legitimacy. Because I think that academic language, and as well, that kind of activist language, critique of oppression is valuable, but it's also culturally hegemonic today. And so I think that as Jews, if we abandon that language, we will have trouble telling our story. So I think there are also projects like this. I'd like to mention the London Center for the Study of contemporary antisemitism. I think that's a great model. So they're doing serious academic work on contemporary antisemitism, not just classical antiSemitism, which we're all familiar with, Neo Nazis, etc. You know, what does it look like today? You know, red triangles, Hamas headbands. This is a new language of hate that I think we need to be on top of. Manya Brachear Pashman: In fact, you presented a paper recently, there, correct, at the London Center, or at a conference sponsored by the London Center? Adam Louis-Klein: Yeah, I did. I presented a paper. It was called the Dissolving the Denotational Account of Antisemitism. So denotational means, what words refer to. Because what I found very often is that it's a trope that's become really familiar now. Anti-Zionists, they say, we don't hate Jews, we only hate Zionists. We don't hate Judaism, we hate Zionism. We're not antisemitic, we're critical of Israel. So these distinctions that are made are all about saying, you can't point to us as attacking Jews, because our language is such that we are denoting we are referring to something else. So in my talk, I was trying to explain that I like look at anti-Zionism more like a symbolic anthropologist. So when an anthropologist goes and works with an indigenous culture, we look at the kinds of symbols that they use to articulate their vision of the world. The Jaguar, for example, becomes a symbol of certain kinds of potency or predation, for example. So I look at anti-Zionism in the same way. It's not important to me whether they think they're referring to Israel or Jews. What's important to me is the use of conspiratorial symbols, or a symbol of child killing, for example. So we see that classical antisemitism accused Jews of killing children. Anti-Zionism today constructs Israelis as bloodthirsty and desiring to kill children. So when we see that, we see that even if they say not Jews, Zionists, they're using similar symbols that have mutated. So I think that's what I'm trying to track, is both the mutation of classical antisemitism into anti-Zionism, and also the continuities between the two. Manya Brachear Pashman: Did you ever experience antisemitism from your academic circles or really anywhere in life through from childhood on? Adam Louis-Klein: Not particularly. So I went to a northeastern prep school, and we were, there were very few Jews, so I think we were sort of seen as another to the kind of traditional northeast New England aristocracy. But it wasn't something that overt, I would say. I think that antisemitism is something that occurs more so in cycles. So if you look at the 19th century, emancipation of Jews and integration of Jews into society, that was the up part of the cycle, and then the reaction to that came on the down part of the cycle. So unfortunately, I think we're in the same thing today. So Jews have very successfully assimilated into American society and became very successful and integrated into American society. But now we're seeing the backlash. And the backlash is taking a new form, which is anti-Zionism, which allows itself to evade what classical antisemitism looks like, and what we're used to identifying as classical antisemitism. Manya Brachear Pashman: So I do want to talk about the word indigenous or indigeneity. Jews celebrate the creation of Israel as a return to their indigenous homeland, and Palestinians also consider it their indigenous homeland. So how are their definitions of indigeneity, how are those definitions different or distinct? I mean, how are their experiences distinct from each other's and from the people and the tribes with whom you immersed yourself in the Amazon? Adam Louis-Klein: So I think indigeneity, in its fundamental meaning, captures something very real that's common to tons of different groups across the world. Which is a certain conception of the way that one's genealogical ancestry is connected to a specific territory where one emerged as a people, and through which one's own peoplehood is defined. So as Jews, our own peoplehood is connected to the land of Israel. It's the Promised Land, it's the place where our civilization first flourished, and it's the place we've always looked to return to. And so that is very similar to indigenous groups around the world. Now, at the same time, I think there's another concept of indigeneity that gets thrown in and sometimes confuses the issue a little bit, and that's that being indigenous relates to a specific history of dispossession, usually by European colonialism, starting in the 16th century. Now, in fact, there have been many colonialism throughout history. So there have been Islamic civilization practiced widespread colonialism. The Romans practiced colonialism. The Babylonians. But there is a tendency to only look at this form of colonialism. And now when we look at the Middle East, what we find then is these analytics are becoming confused and applied in strange ways. So we see that Palestinians, for example, their genealogical traditions, they understand themselves as tribally derived from tribes in Arabia that expanded with Muhammad's conquest, and that's very common. And Arabian culture and Arabic language is what they practice. And so at that level, from a factual perspective, Palestinians are not indigenous in the genealogical sense. However, there's a tendency to believe, since Jews have a state today, then since they appear not as dispossessed, because Jews have actually repossessed our ancestral land, that Jews can't be indigenous. But so I think that's a confusion. The basic understanding of what indigenous means, and largely what the UN definition is based on, is this notion of continuous identification with the territory. So I really think that this isn't so much a question of who can live where. I think Palestinians' right to live in the land has largely been recognized by the UN Partition Plan in 1947, or the Oslo Accords, and other peace deals, but it's a question of conceptual clarity and fact. And so at this level, I believe that the UN and other institutions should formally recognize Jews as indigenous to the land of Israel. Manya Brachear Pashman: You have written, and I want to read this line, because it's so rich you have written that the recursive logic of an antiSemitic consensus builds upon itself, feeds on moral certainty, and shields its participants from having to ask whether what they are reproducing is not justice at all, but a new iteration of a very old lie. I. So are there other examples of that phenomenon in academia, either currently or in the past? Adam Louis-Klein: So what I was trying to grasp with that was my sense of despair in seeing that it was impossible to even point to people, point people to fact within academia, or debate these issues, or explain to non Jews who Jews even are. So I got the sense that people are talking quite a lot about Jews, but don't seem to really care about our voices. So some of that writing that you're quoting is an attempt to understand anti Zionism, not just not only as libel, but also as a kind of practice of exclusion, where Jews feel silenced in spaces. And where, where for all the talk of Academic Freedom versus antisemitism, which I think can sometimes be a tricky issue, I believe that Jews own academic freedom has fundamentally been violated by this discourse so that recursive logic is the way rumor and repeating slogans and repeating notions, regardless of their factual content, like the Jews or settler colonists, sort of builds on itself, as well as on social media, with this algorithmic escalation until it's almost impossible to talk back to it. So an example would be in 2024 the American Anthropological Association had its big conference, and the Gaza genocide was the main theme. But it wasn't a theme we were all going to go and debate. It was a theme that we assumed was true, and we were going to talk about it as a thing in the world, and then the Society for cultural anthropology released an issue with the exact same premise. It was glorifying Ismail Haniyeh of Hamas and Nasrallah of Hezbollah. And then, interestingly enough, just the other day, they released another edition, which was about settler colonialism, and saying, We want to come back to this issue and and reaffirm that settler colonialism applies to Israel and Palestine against people who are attacking the concept, and we're against the exceptionalization of Israel in their terms. And so I searched through the document, but I couldn't find anywhere where Jews were talked about as indigenous, not even as a fact, but even as a claim. I couldn't find anywhere in this journal where Jew it was even acknowledged that Jews might believe that we are indigenous. So it's almost as if the very notion is just completely erased by consciousness within academia. Which is quite frightening. Manya Brachear Pashman: And do you feel able to push back on that. In other words, as a fellow anthropologist, are you able to ask, why is this omitted from this paper, from this journal? Adam Louis-Klein: No, because they will simply ignore you. So that's why I believe these parallel spaces are so important and what I see my work trying to do is to help build a Jewish intellectual discourse. And unfortunately, I think we have to start a little bit internally. So we've been somewhat ghettoized. But if we build up that space, and construct these spaces where we have, where we can share the same premises and we don't have to argue from the bottom up every time. I think that will give us strength and also more clarity on our own understanding of what's happening. You know, both of the level of what is anti-Zionism, what is this new discourse? And at the level of, how can we speak from Jewish peoplehood as a legitimate place to even theorize from or build academic theories from. Manya Brachear Pashman: You mentioned earlier that you held on to doubt. You kept open the possibility that Israel is in the wrong here, and you were watching for, looking for signs or evidence that your colleagues were correct. But as you've watched the horrors unfold, and wondered to yourself whether maybe Israel isn't really defending itself, why have you not concluded that that is indeed the case? Why have you reached the opposite conclusion? Adam Louis-Klein: Yeah, so I talked earlier about using, like a critical race theory analysis, so thinking about ideologies and the kind of tropes they're using and the way they're talking about Israelis, but I think that's only one part of the picture. So what I noticed is, one, they didn't want to do that kind of analysis, but two, they also weren't interested in empirical fact. So when I would sometimes try and do that analysis like this. This sounds like antisemitic, right? They would say, oh, but it's true. Israel is doing this stuff. Israel is intentionally killing Palestinian children. Israel is going completely beyond the laws of war. This is a genocide of unique proportions. Completely irrational and exaggerated statements. They also didn't want to engage with fact. I spent a lot of time digging up the sources of this material, given disinformation. For example, the Al-Ahli incident, where it was claimed by the Hamas health ministry that Israel had intentionally bombed the Al-Ahli hospital, killing 500 people. Al Jazeera promoted it. Western outlets also promoted it, and I had people all over my wall attacking me, saying that I'm justifying this by standing with Israel. And I saw what happened after, which was that they looked into it. The casualty count was tragic, but it was far lower than reported. It was about 50 people, and it was an Islamic Jihad rocket, so Israel was not even responsible. So I think that any rational person who sees what happened in that incident becomes skeptical of everything else they're being told and of the information circuits. And so when I also saw that the people who were talking about the Gaza genocide, weren't seemed completely unfazed by that. That made me have to rethink also what they were doing, because if they're unfazed by something like that, that suggests this isn't a truth that they're being forced to acknowledge, it sounds a bit more like a truth that has its own sort of incentive to believe in despite fact, rather than being pushed towards it because of fact. Manya Brachear Pashman: So I'm curious, if you went back to the people that you had been immersed with and had been studying for the matter of months before October 7, did you go back to them and tell them what had happened, or did they somehow know what had happened? And I'm just curious if there was any kind of response from them? Adam Louis-Klein: Interesting. Yeah, I speak with them regularly, on a regular basis. They don't know exactly what's happened. I think they see sometimes news, but it's largely their understanding, is that there's a lot of wars in the Western world. And they ask why? Why is there so much war? Why is there so much suffering? I mean, they were particularly interested in in the Ukraine war, because they couldn't wrap their head around why Putin was doing this, which I think is pretty similar to a lot of people, but they do see, some of them see Israel as kind of, you know, a figure of strength, and compare Israel almost to their own notions of ancestral, sort of potency or power. So they have a very different understanding of the relationship between, let's say, power and victimhood. They don't necessarily fetishize being powerless. Manya Brachear Pashman: Tell me a little bit about this tribe, these people that you spent time with. Adam Louis-Klein: So the Desano there, they're one of a number of many ethnicities who inhabit the Northwest Amazonian region in northwest Brazil and southeast Columbia. They live in an extremely complex world in which there are over 25 languages in the region. And they have a very unique form of marriage, where you have to marry someone who speaks a different language than you. And so any community has a kind of nucleus of people who speak the same language, and they're from the same tribe. But the women in the community all speak different languages and come from different tribes. So I think it's a kind of space where you have to think across difference. You're constantly confronted with people who are other than you, who are from different tribes and different communities, as well as the relationship between the Western world and the indigenous world itself. And I think that's really part of the promise of anthropology, like coming back to what I was saying earlier about a diasporic Jewish sensibility, I think it's also just a Jewish sensibility. Part of being a distinct people is that we need to think with other people, and I think that includes Muslims and Arabs and Christians as well. Manya Brachear Pashman: That is such an enlightened approach that they have taken to marriage. Isn't that what marriage is all about, crossing those differences and figuring out and they just do it from the very beginning. And I'm also curious, though, are they also mixing with Western cultures. In other words, have they broadened that, or do they keep it within those villages? Adam Louis-Klein: Yeah, so they've taken on a lot of features of the surrounding, Colombian Spanish language culture, and that is the struggle today. Because there's a lot of economic pressures to move to the towns and the cities in order to get work and employment. And that can pose problems to the reproduction of the traditional village community. And so that's part of what we've been struggling with and part of the project with them. So we're currently translating an old book about anthropology, about them into their language, so they have the Bible, which was translated into the language by missionaries. And now we also want to translate their own cultural material into their language so that can help them preserve the language and preserve their own cultural knowledge. Manya Brachear Pashman: So what's next for you, Adam? Adam Louis-Klein: So I'm hoping to continue writing and to continue getting out this work. I'm hoping to also work with grassroots organizers to try to put some activist meat onto this opposition to anti-Zionism. So I believe that, as I was talking about parallel academic spaces are really important, I also think it's important to be able to speak back to anti-Zionism with activist language. Not only the academic side, but the activist side. So I'm working with the group now, a decentralized group, developing infographics, memes, things that can circulate to educate people about anti-Zionism as the new form of antisemitism today. Manya Brachear Pashman: Thank you for taking on this work and for sharing your story. Adam Louis-Klein: Thank you so much. It was a pleasure.
