All Episodes

August 20, 2025 • 68 mins

In this re-release of one of our most popular episodes, Noam Weissman and Mijal Bitton speak with journalist Haviv Rettig Gur about the history, ideology, and persistence of antisemitism. They trace its roots from early Christian and Islamic theology through Marxist and nationalist movements, examine how it has evolved in the Arab world and on American campuses, and discuss why the current wave feels unprecedented to many American Jews. (Note: this episode was recorded before Mamdani's victory in the Democratic primary of the NYC mayoral election.) Here is Mijal's article in the Free Press: ⁠⁠Things Worth Remembering: The Freedom to Be Different.⁠⁠ BOOK TICKETS for Unpacking Israeli History LIVE in NYC - Sep 7 at 92nd St Y with special guest Dan Senor: ⁠⁠⁠⁠https://unpacked.bio/uihny25⁠⁠⁠⁠ Use Promo code UIH20 to get 20% off your tickets Please follow Wondering Jews on Instagram! instagram.com/wonderingjews.
