For decades, Deborah Lipstadt has been a leading figure in writing about and combating antisemitism. She is most well-known for defeating Holocaust denier David Irving when he sued her for defamation. However, Deborah’s accomplishments span far beyond the trial that made her infamous. She is currently the Dorot Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies at Emory University and recently received a nomination by President Biden as Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism. 

Please join us for Part I of a special series on Confronting Antisemitism. Listen to as Jay and Deborah discuss the history of antisemitism, why there has been an uprise in hate recently, and what we can do to combat it.
