Summary

Tuvia Tenenbom, a bestselling author, playwright, journalist, and founder of the Jewish Theater of New York, has traveled the world to understand increasing antisemitism. He documents his experiences in his latest book “The Taming of the Jew.” Recent fighting between Israel and Hamas has brought the issue to the forefront with more than two dozen antisemitic attacks reported in the United States since May 10. Tenenbom attributes this troubling trend to the pro-Palestinian organization Black Lives Matter and its supporters on the American left and in the news media. Tenenbom, 64, also speaks about the antisemitism he personally has experienced. Publishers in America and Europe rejected “The Taming of the Jew,” prompting him to seek an Israel-based company. Now he is speaking out against cancel culture and urging Americans to take action before it’s too late. We also cover these stories: Moderna announces that its COVID-19 vaccine appears to be safe for youth. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy condemns statements by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene comparing mask and vaccine requirements to what Jews faced during the Holocaust. "Fast and Furious" actor and pro wrestler John Cena apologizes to China for calling Taiwan a country. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Learn more about your ad choices.
