Like the United States and some other Western countries, the UK has experienced a tidal wave of anti-Israel protest and a huge rise in antisemitism since October 7.
Weekly demonstrations take place in London, and British Members of Parliament fear for their safety if they’re perceived as pro-Israel.
The Begin Center is delighted to be hosting Dr. David Hirsh, on a visit to Israel from London, where he is CEO of the London Centre for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism.
Dr. Hirsh has been at the forefront of the fight against antisemitism in the UK for over 20 years, especially antisemitism and anti-Zionism in academia and on campus. He is the author of Contemporary Left Antisemitism and The Rebirth of Antisemitism in the 21st Century. He has co-edited the world’s first compilation of essays responding to October 7, to be published in May of this year.
To be part of our conversation with him, come to the Begin Center in Jerusalem, or join us live on Zoom.
