Ep. 124: Jeffrey Gurock: Do Jews Still Have a Place in American Society?

Since Oct. 7th, antisemitism has exploded in the United States with calls on the streets and on college campuses for attacks against Jews and the end of Israel. Has the place of the American Jew forever changed?To answer this question, we take a look at another time when Jews faced antisemitism and discrimination in America's history. Jonathan Tobin is joined by historian Jeffrey Gurock of Yeshiva University whose new book, Marty Glickman: The Life of an American Jewish Sports Legend, discusses the obstacles faced by Jews in that era.
