DUE TO OVERWHELMING INTEREST, THE EVENT WAS MOVED TO DEUTSCHES LITERATURINSTITUT LEIPZIG

 

Please join us for a roundtable discussion with Dr. Sina Arnold on the history and current trends of the relationship between antisemitism and the left.

Dr. Arnold will retrace the history of antisemitism in America with a focus on the American left and then expand her analysis to contemporary discourses of antisemitism in today‘s America.

Dr. Arnold is an expert on antisemitism, migration, and antimuslim racism and a Scientific Managing Director at Berliner Institut für empirische Migrations- und Integrationsforschung. Her book Das unsichtbare Vorurteil – Antisemitismusdiskurse in der US-Linken nach 9/11 was published in 2016 by Hamburger Edition.

The talk will be held in German.
