Professor Ron Hassner: UC Berkeley Faculty Take A Stand Against Campus Antisemitism

Professor Ron Hassner staged a faculty sit-in against antisemitism by living and sleeping in his Berkeley office until university administrators agreed to his requests to improve the campus environment for his Jewish students who are facing unprecedented antisemitism. Several other faculty eventually joined him, setting off a growing movement. Now home, he sits down with Laura Kessler to discuss antisemitism at Berkeley, bipartisan boundaries in faculty activism, improving resident life, IHRA, and some of his own nationally recognized research.EPISODE PAGE:https://www.jewishtvchannel.com/ron-hassner-on-talking-point/TALKING POINT:https://www.jewishtvchannel.com/talkingpoint/BIPACT NEWS:https://www.jewishtvchannel.com/bipact/
