The Jewish Question

Avi, Lila and James Loeffler (John Hopkins University) take on the big question of whether or not US law can effectively address antisemitism using The Unite the Right Rally in August, 2017 in Charlottesville and subsequent trials as a case study. 

What is The Jewish Question?

Co-Hosts Avinoam Patt and Lila Corwin Berman discover the stories and scholars to help make sense of antisemitism today. They start with a theory: the answer to understanding (and perhaps fighting) antisemitism is only as good as the questions one asks. And then they search far and wide for the best questions and the people who can ask and answer them. And spoiler: Avi, Lila, and their guests don’t always agree. In fact, that’s the plot, or at least part of it. How scholars and other people can passionately disagree while remaining curious about one another and the world, one question at a time.
