The idea that any criticism of Israel and the Israeli
government - including through protests, social media posts, or boycotts - are inherently antisemitic is a total fallacy. No government is beyond reproach.

Erasing Palestine Free Speech and Palestinian Freedom

How the redefinition of antisemitism has functioned as a tactic to undermine Palestine solidarity.

The widespread adoption of the IHRA definition of anti-semitism and the internalisation of its norms has set in motion a simplistic definitional logic for dealing with social problems that has impoverished discussions of racism and prejudice more generally, across Britain and beyond. It has encouraged a focus on words over substance.
Erasing Palestine tells the story of how this has happened, with a focus on internal politics within Britain over the course of the past several years. In order to do so, it tells a much longer story, about the history of antisemitism since the beginning of the twentieth century. This is also a story about Palestine, a chronicle of the erasure of the violence against the Palestinian people, and a story about free speech, and why it matters to Palestinian freedom.

Die Geschwister Oppermann aka The Oppermans by Lion Feuchtwanger.

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/543760.The_Oppermanns

Have just finished the Czech translation. My second time with the Oppermann family, still strong reader experience after 30 years. Especially in the current climate of rising #antisemitism in the West.
Do grab it, you may find it surprisingly timeless.

Stop the witch-hunt against vaccinologist Peter Hotez!

Fight for Free Speech and truth in science!

Fascists stalked Hotez at his home on Sunday. He regularly receives antisemitic and antivax death threats. He is publicly vilified by Steve Bannan, Joe Rogan, Elon Musk & RFK Jr.

Why?

*Led efforts to develop a low-cost, patent-free vaccine for COVID-19.
*Public opposes right-wing pseudoscience.
*Calls proponents of anti-vax propaganda neo-fascists
