Philip Slayton In conversation with Samir Gandesha
Antisemitism is resurgent in our age of social media, identity politics, and populism. In his new book, Antisemitism: An ancient hatred in the age of identity politics, Philip Slayton looks at the history of antisemitism and how it is being turbocharged today. An award-winning writer, lawyer, and former law dean, Slayton suggests a way forward that challenges conventional wisdom. Join Philip in conversation with Samir Gandesha, Director of the Institute for the Humanities at Simon Fraser University and author of Spectres of Fascism.
