Beyond the Noise - the PRWeek podcast

PR and antisemitism: ‘where's the empathy?’


Listen Later

What more can comms professionals do to help stem growing antisemitism? And why aren’t more speaking out? PRWeek UK’s latest podcast looks at the issues.

Joining a special edition of Beyond the Noise are three agency leaders who are Jewish: David Fraser, founder of Ready10 and Ready Media Group; Mandy Sharp, CEO of Tin Man Communications; and Barry Frankfurt, MD of Creative & Commercial.

Beyond the Noise looks at some of the biggest issues affecting communications and PR. Download the podcast via Apple, Spotify, or listen on your favourite platform.

Speaking to PRWeek UK editor John Harrington, our guests this week discuss their experiences of antisemitism in recent years and reflect on how the fatal attack on a synagogue in Greater Manchester on 2 October has put the issue into sharper focus.

They talk about how the industry has responded to the attacks, including a “deafening silence”and a lack of “empathy” from some, which point to wider problems.

The founders offer advice to other people in comms about how to support their Jewish colleagues and peers.
