Shane Burley and Ben Lorber's new book discusses how to take a new, radical, and antifascist approach to the fight against antisemitism. Building on conversations from organizers, scholars, journalists, and survivors, they will discuss strategies for Jewish safety that do not rely on Israeli nationalism, political centrism, or the police state, but instead get their inspiration from movements based on solidarity and the universal struggle for liberation.
Shane Burley is known for his work on the far-right and left-wing social movements. He is the author of Fascism Today: What It Is and How to End It (AK Press, 2017) and Why We Fight: Essays on Fascism, Resistance, and Surviving the Apocalypse (AK Press, 2021), and editor of the anthology ¡No pasarán!: Readings on Antifascism (AK Press, 2022).
Ben Lorber is Senior Research Analyst at Political Research Associates, a social movement think tank, where he studies and publishes on antisemitism and white nationalism. He previously worked as national campus organizer with Jewish Voice for Peace, supporting justice-driven young Jewish communities across the country, and has written extensively on antisemitism, Israel/Palestine and Jewish identity.
