Dara Horn, Author of "People Love Dead Jews"
Why does antisemitism keep resurfacing in different forms? Award-winning author Dara Horn (People Love Dead Jews) breaks down the disturbing patterns behind antisemitism, how anti-Zionism is just antisemitism rebranded, and why Hollywood only tells Jewish stories a certain way. From the media’s obsession with Jewish victimhood to the double standards applied to Israel, Dara exposes the uncomfortable truths no one wants to talk about.
