We'll be discussing "Anti-Zionism", the brand new book by the Pulitzer-winning writer Benjamin Moser: https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/770236/anti-zionism-by-benjamin-moser/

“Anti-Zionism” is a sweeping and revelatory history of the hidden tradition of Jewish thinkers who opposed Zionism. Through a cast of artists, rabbis, poets, lawyers, activists, journalists, and politicians—from Europe and Africa and Asia and Latin America—Moser traces a lineage of Jewish dissenters who confronted Zionism’s moral and political stakes—often at devastating personal cost, including censorship, exile, and death. Meeting the day after the election, we'll also use some of our time to debrief and consider the role of Israel and Zionism in the election results.
