Eye on Antisemitism: Antisemitism among left-wing extremists in the United Kingdom
b'
In today's second episode of the Eye on Antisemitism, Lucinda delves into the complex issue of antisemitism among the left-wing extremists in the United Kingdom (UK), specifically looking at the UK political landscape. How has the Labour Party, which is historically associated with left-wing politics in the UK, addressed or failed to address the issue of left-wing antisemitism within its ranks? And how does it affect Jewish communities, both in terms of their safety and sense of belonging? What steps can be taken to effectively combat and counter left-wing antisemitism in the UK?
Lucinda speaks with Dave Rich who is a leading expert on left-wing antisemitism. He is currently the Head of Policy at the Community Security Trust, a UK-based charity that protects British Jews from antisemitism and related threats. Dave is also the author of the recently published book \\u2018Everyday Hate: How Antisemitism Is Built Into Our World \\u2013 and How You Can Change It\\u2019,\\xa0 in which he provides a wide examination of antisemitism among different social groups in the UK.
