Straight into the Lions’ Den: The Left, Zionism, and Antisemitism

How do we distinguish between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism?  How have thinkers on the Left wrestled with Zionism with and the actual State of Israel–sometimes championing it as a progressive cause, at other times seeing it as a racist or colonialist enterprise?

Join us as Bari Weiss, author of How to Fight Anti-Semitism, and Susie Linfield, author of The Lion’s Den: Zionism and the Left from Hannah Arendt to Noam Chomsky, tackle these urgent questions, moderated by Nextbook’s Jonathan Rosen.  Natan named both books Fall 2019 Natan Notable Books, and this is the first time the authors will be in conversation.

This program is in partnership with The Natan Foundation.
