Why the Word "Antisemitism" No Longer Works - Adam Louis-Klein

Walk-Ins Welcome #389

Bridget Phetasy sits down with Adam Louis Klein, anthropologist and founder of the Movement Against Antizionism (MAAZ), to examine why the word "antisemitism" has stopped working — and what language we actually need to name and confront the Israel hatred spreading across campuses, media, and institutions. Klein traces antizionism from its roots in Nazi and Soviet propaganda through its capture of Western academia, explains how it functions as a libel machine resistant to any counterevidence, and lays out why defeating it — not just defending Israel — is the only path to peace. Bridget brings her own experience of being labeled a Zionist, the collapse of trust in institutions, and what ordinary people can actually do.
