Featuring Dr. David Hirsh, Senior Lecturer in Sociology at Goldsmiths, University of London, and Founding Director of the London Centre for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism.What does it really mean to educate against antisemitism in a polarized, ideologically charged academic environment?In this episode, Dr. David Hirsh joins Omar Mohammed to explore how antisemitism manifests in intellectual and activist spaces—often cloaked in the language of human rights and anti-racism. Drawing on his scholarship and practical experience, Hirsh unpacks the challenges of confronting antisemitism that is embedded in elite discourse, campus culture, and political activism.From the misuse of academic freedom to the erasure of Jewish narratives, this conversation explores how education can serve as both a tool for understanding—and, at times, a shield for denial. Dr. Hirsh calls for a courageous pedagogy that refuses to compromise on moral clarity, and challenges educators to confront antisemitism even when it’s unpopular to do so. Hosted on Acast.
