Antisemitism, U.S.A.: A History

Episode 8: The Synagogue of Satan


Listen Later

In the early 1970s, two powerful men, President Richard Nixon and evangelist Billy Graham, held secret Oval Office conversations about Jews. "America's Pastor" and the 37th President of the United States didn't consider themselves antisemites, but they dredged up stereotypes and traded in conspiracy theories shared by many Americans about the "good Jews": Jews who were too smart, too powerful, and all too willing to corrupt the nation's morals.

Featuring: Yaakov Ariel, Daniel Hummel, and Jonathan Greenblatt

Narrated by Mark Oppenheimer

Written by John Turner and Lincoln Mullen
