    1 – Antisemitism?

    In this episode, Anthony and Caitlin discuss the problems that arise when determining whether opposition to Zionism is being mischaracterised as antisemitism, or conversely, being used to disguise it. They explore how they go about assessing particular situations to see if there is good evidence of antisemitism, or whether accusers are jumping the gun (intentionally or not). They focus especially on the recent incident involving two Johannesburg high schools, King David and Roedean, where the former accused the latter of antisemitism after the forfeiting of a tennis match.─Links to articles and sources mentioned in the episode:What is antisemitism?
