Jewish Currents Editor-at-Large & Professor of Journalism and Political Science at CUNY Peter Beinart joins Bad Faith to discuss his latest piece in which he takes on the media frenzy around allegations of Ivy League antisemitism, and asks why none of Harvard’s Israel experts have been invited to join the group convened to investigate said claims. Is it because none of them would cosign overly expansive definitions of antisemitism? The pair also examines Beinart’s own journey away from Zionism toward what he describes as “cultural Zionism” and how the siege on Gaza is rapidly changing how Israel is perceived within the Jewish community.
