Why It's Important to Recognize The Key Falsehoods Underpinning Jew-Hatred: A Fireside Chat With Alex Ryvchin, Author Of The 7 Deadly Myths: Antisemitism From The Time Of Christ To Kanye

What exactly is the explanation for antisemitism? No matter what excuse is cited by those seeking to demonize Jews, it fails to explain the pervasiveness and intensity of Jew-hatred, both from the extreme right and the extreme left. But despite the inherent illogic in antisemitism, there remains a tendency to attempt to explain it and categorize it. Our guest this week is attempting to put all that to rest. Alex Ryvchin is co-Chief Executive Officer of the Executive Council of Australian Jewry, and an author whose recent book, The 7 Deadly Myths: Antisemitism from the time of Christ to Kanye West, seeks to guide readers through the specific myths underlining antisemitism, and in turn, help offer Jews & their allies, the news media, and the public at large the tools to understand and combat it.
