Online Event Oct 30 7pm ET | #NaomiKlein & #HalaAlyan in Conversation

hosted by #JewishCurrents' EIC #ArielleAngel

"How do our feelings affect our political choices? How do we defuse and redirect Jewish fear in light of its increasing weaponization? What is—and should be—the role of both mourning and rage in Palestinian and in Jewish communal politics? How do we guard against political nihilism?"

NLR's new issue has an intv w/ #ArielleAngel of #JewishCurrents.

A discussion marred IMO by a stilted, longish attempt by the interviewer to litigate the term genocide wrt #Gaza by contrasting "emotion" vs "precision." (As if 1000s of jurists & numerous govts joining S. Africa v Israel are operating under the throes of "emotion." WTF?) Worth the read tho for *Arielle's* thoughts at least

Arielle Angel, Leaving Zion, NLR 148, July–August 2024

The rejection of Israel’s hegemony by a new generation of Jewish Americans—and their radical critique of its revenge war on Gaza—have altered the political-intellectual terrain in the US. Arielle Angel, editor in chief at Jewish Currents, discusses the journal’s role in this rupture with the Zionist establishment.
