  • Spencer Sunshine*
    Journal of Social Justice, Vol. 9, 2019 (© 2019) ISSN: 2164-7100 Looking Left at Antisemitism Spencer Sunshine* The question of antisemitism inside of the Left—referred to as “left antisemitism”—is a stubborn and persistent problem. And while the Right exaggerates both its depth and scope, the Left has repeatedly refused to face the issue. It is entangled in scandals about antisemitism at an increasing rate. On the Western Left, some antisemitism manifests in the form of conspiracy theories, but there is also a hegemonic refusal to acknowledge antisemitism’s existence and presence. This, in turn, is part of a larger refusal to deal with Jewish issues in general, or to engage with the Jewish community as a real entity. Debates around left antisemitism have risen in tandem with the spread of anti-Zionism inside of the Left, especially since the Second Intifada. Anti-Zionism is not, by itself, antisemitism. One can call for the Right of Return, as well as dissolving Israel as a Jewish state, without being antisemitic. But there is a Venn diagram between anti- Zionism and antisemitism, and the overlap is both significant and has many shades of grey to it. One of the main reasons the Left can’t acknowledge problems with antisemitism is that Jews persistently trouble categories, and the Left would have to rethink many things—including how it approaches anti- imperialism, nationalism of the oppressed, anti-Zionism, identity politics, populism, conspiracy theories, and critiques of finance capital—if it was to truly struggle with the question. The Left understands that white supremacy isn’t just the Ku Klux Klan and neo-Nazis, but that it is part of the fabric of society, and there is no shortcut to unstitching it.

  • 'Cancel Culture' Doesn't Stifle Debate, but It Does Challenge the Old Order Billy Bragg
    'Cancel culture' doesn't stifle debate, but it does challenge the old order Billy Bragg Speech is only free when everyone has a voice – that’s why young people are angry Outside Broadcasting House in London, the BBC has erected a statue to one of its former employees, George Orwell. The author leans forward, hand on hip, as if to make a telling point. Carved into the wall beside him is a quote from the preface of Animal Farm: “If liberty means anything at all, it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear.” It’s a snappy slogan that fits neatly into a tweet, but whenever I walk past this effigy of the English writer that I most admire, it makes me cringe. Surely the author of Nineteen Eighty-Four would understand that people don’t want to hear that 2+2=5? For Orwell’s quote is not a defence of liberty; it’s a demand for licence, and has become a foundational slogan for those who wilfully misconstrue one for the other. Over the past decade, the right to make inflammatory statements has become a hot button issue for the reactionary right, who have constructed tropes such as political correctness and virtue signalling to enable them to police the limits of social change while portraying themselves as victims of an organised assault on liberty itself. The latest creation in their war against accountability is “cancel culture”, an ill-defined notion that takes in corporate moves to recognise structural racism, the toppling of statues, social media bullying, public shaming and other diverse attempts to challenge the status quo.

The Rules of #MeToo Jessica A. Clarke† ABSTRACT Two revelations are central to the meaning of the #MeToo movement. First, sexual harassment and assault are ubiquitous. And second, traditional legal procedures have failed to redress these problems. In the absence of effective formal legal pro- cedures, a set of ad hoc processes have emerged for managing claims of sexual har- assment and assault against persons in high-level positions in business, media, and government. This Article sketches out the features of this informal process, in which journalists expose misconduct and employers, voters, audiences, consumers, or professional organizations are called upon to remove the accused from a position of power. Although this process exists largely in the shadow of the law, it has at- tracted criticisms in a legal register. President Trump tapped into a vein of popular backlash against the #MeToo movement in arguing that it is “a very scary time for young men in America” because “somebody could accuse you of something and you’re automatically guilty.” Yet this is not an apt characterization of #MeToo’s paradigm cases.

  • 1 Antisemitism Rosh Hashanah 5780 September 29, 2019 Rabbi David
    Antisemitism Rosh Hashanah 5780 September 29, 2019 Rabbi David Stern Tonight marks my thirty-first High Holidays at Temple Emanu-El, a huge blessing in my life. In thirty-one years of high holiday sermons, you have been very forgiving, and I have addressed a diverse array of topics: from our internal spiritual journeys to Judaism’s call for justice in the world; relationship and forgiveness, immigration and race, prayer and faith, loving Israel and loving our neighbors; birth and death and just about everything in between in this messy, frustrating, promising, profound, sacred realm we call life. Except -- in thirty-one years as a Jewish leader, I have not given a single High Holiday sermon about antisemitism.1 References, allusions, a pointed paragraph here and there, yes. But in three decades of High Holiday sermons spanning the end of the twentieth and the beginning of the twenty-first centuries, not a single one about antisemitism. I’m hoping that doesn’t constitute professional malpractice, but it is strange. So I’ve asked myself why. Reason #1: I had almost no experience of antisemitism growing up. With one limited exception, I never even experienced name-calling, let alone any physical incident. All four of my grandparents were born in America, and our story was the classic trajectory of American Jewish integration and success. 1 Professor Deborah E. Lipstadt makes a compelling argument for this spelling. Lipstadt rejects the hyphen in the more conventional “Anti-Semitism” because it implies that whatever lies to the right of the hyphen exists as an independent entity.

  • Yom Kippur Morning Service Sermon – Antisemitism Here and Now As
    Yom Kippur Morning Service Sermon – Antisemitism Here and Now As some of you know, I grew up in Spring, Texas a northwestern suburb of Houston. It was not exactly the mecca of Jewish life. I heard the taunts of Jews killed Jesus. I was asked about my horns. I would have to fight every year to be able to take off for Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur and not face academic penalties for taking the day. And I would occasionally get into very powerful arguments at football games because I would not stand for a prayer that was offered up at a public high school in the name of a person I did not worship. I had to develop a very thick Jewish skin. This is probably part of the reason why I have made some of the career choices we have made including coming here to Rockland County. Rockland, as I learned in my research, has the largest Jewish population by percentage of any county in the nation. As a result, schools are closed on Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur. Black and white cookies are abundant, and there are delis around just about every corner. There was even a local Jewish Day school they could attend, a blessed memory. What more could a parent want for their Jewish children? Perhaps my children, in this multi-cultural society, and in a diversely Jewish county could escape much of the antisemitism I grew up with… Nope. But before we dive into some of the issues of antisemitism in the county, let’s talks about antisemitism in general.

  • The Art of Prayer: Western Art Music As Synagogue Sound
    UNIT 2 THE ART OF PRAYER: WESTERN ART MUSIC AS SYNAGOGUE SOUND (Content experts: Cantor Matt Austerklein, Lorry Black, DMA, Mark Kligman, PhD; lesson plan written by Rabbi Barry Lutz, M.A.J.E., RJE) A PROGRAM OF THE LOWELL MILKEN FUND FOR AMERICAN JEWISH MUSIC AT THE UCLA HERB ALPERT SCHOOL OF MUSIC UNIT 2: THE ART OF PRAYER 1 Since the Renaissance, Jews have risen to prominence in art music. This lesson explores the intersection of Western Art Music and Jewish music, and the influence it has had on the sound of synagogue worship. Enduring Understandings (What are the big ideas learners will take away from this lesson?) • Music of the synagogue reflects the intersection and boundaries where our Jewish identity and our experience as members of American society come together. • Sacred music reflects what being Jewish “looks like” in a particular historical and sociological context. Sacred music expresses the intersection of Jewish culture and values with that of the host culture - as well as the (self imposed or otherly imposed) boundaries which makes us distinctly Jewish. • Jewish identity is fluid, reflecting an ongoing negotiation between the Jewish community and the surrounding host culture. • How we define ourselves both as Jews and as members of the host culture influences the “sound” of the synagogue. • The Milken Archive is a repository and access point for hearing and learning about Jewish music. Essential Questions (What are the essential questions that frame this unit? What questions point towards the key issues and ideas that
