Identity/Crisis
Reporting on antisemitism when nobody wants to listen
Who pays the price for identifying antisemitism? We examine why media and political institutions have struggled to respond and what it costs to name these realities publicly.

Who pays the price for identifying antisemitism?
In this episode of Identity/Crisis, Yehuda Kurtzer speaks with journalist and Canadaland host Jesse Brown about his recent series ‘What Is Happening Here’ and his decision to investigate the rise of anti-Zionism and antisemitism in Canada. Together, they examine why media and political institutions have struggled to respond and what it costs to name these realities publicly.
We’re grateful to the Charles H. Revson Foundation for supporting the Shalom Hartman Institute’s digital work, including Identity/Crisis.
