Warnings of rising fascism have emanated from India for years as the Hindutva, or Hindu nationalist, movement under Prime Minister Narendra Modi has unleashed escalating religious and caste-based violence in "the world\'s largest democracy." Throughout, India\'s fascists have found a fellow traveler, a collaborative partner, and a state model to emulate in Israel\'s ethno-nationalist apartheid regime. How deep does the India-Israel relationship go? And how can Hindu and Jewish progressives be part of the solution? Aparna Gopalan joins The Marc Steiner Show to discuss her explosive investigation for Jewish Currents, "The Hindu Nationalists Using the Pro-Israel Playbook."

Aparna Gopalan is the news editor at Jewish Currents.
