N2  - We Need to Talk About Antisemitism provides a comprehensive overview of modern antisemitism in all its forms, galvanizing readers to fight for social justice. Drawing on historical research and current events, Fersko takes us through the roots of some of the most pernicious and damaging myths about Jewish people. She unpacks the microaggressions, identity denial, and Christian privilege that many Jews have to contend with, and examines the current American political landscape to condemn the antisemitism of both the far right and the far left. Fersko discusses the intersection of antisemitism and race, including the persistent erasure of Jews of color, and weaves an intersectional model that links antisemitism to other forms of discrimination. She thoughtfully engages with difficult moral questions about Israel and more, creating a dialogue with readers that aims to spark, not shut down, conversation. Finally, she shows Jews and non-Jews alike how to learn more, speak up, and come together, spreading a message of solidarity and hope. Approachable and ultimately optimistic, We Need to Talk About Antisemitism pairs a serious discussion of an enduring form of hatred with a deep commitment to hope and perseverance"--
