Antisemitism in America feels new, but historian Jonathan Sarna says the best parallel may be the late 1800s, when inclusion turned into exclusion. In this episode, we explore immigration and nativism, Zionism and dual loyalty claims, the impact of social media, and what would have to change for America to stop feeling like the exception in Jewish history. Sarna also shares a surprising reason for sober hope today.

this popped up in my algorithm today. I’m choosing to focus on resilience of the Jewish people which has been a main focus for me about sharing about if this stuff on here rather than getting too much about some stuff which is wise to read up on but I’m learning about which is wiser to read up on and keep to yourself inwardly versus sharing it to those who just probably won’t come close to seeing eye to eye and will just be on attack mode. Neptune in Aries transit notes. I made up my mind to add Jewish resilience type reading in my personal studies daily. ✡️🧿✡️🧿✡️🧿✡️🧿✡️🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿🧿
