Antisemitism in the current moment: Critical views from the Jewish Faculty Network Webinar

On February 15, 2024, the Jewish Faculty Network held a webinar to consider antisemitism in the context of the recent moment in Israel and Palestine. We are deeply alarmed about how claims of defense of Israel and Jewish rights are being used to justify genocide against Palestinians in Gaza, and unprecedented repression against solidarity with Palestine by university administrators, governments, and other institutions. Challenging false allegations of antisemitism, and opposing without compromise any manifestation of actual antisemitism, we follow a long tradition of Jewish ethics which encourages dissent and self-reflection.

Featuring: Deb Cowen, Asher Kirchner, Naomi Klein, Sheryl Nestel, Jonah Corne, Michaela Beder, Larry Haiven, Alejandro Paz, Ilan Kapoor, Jillian Rogin, Avi Lewis, Abigail Bakan, Ariel Katz, Shiri Pasternak and Anna Zalik.
