Episode five: We're sick of talking about antisemitism
Listen now
Description
We're in the UK. It's 2024. Raymond and Jon really would prefer not to talk about antisemitism in the UK in 2024 in the fifth episode of the 'Jews Do Count' podcast. But they have to, as antisemitism is still the biggest concern among Jews in the UK and the entire world today. With the number of antisemitic incidents spiking following the 7 October attack on Israel and the following war in Gaza, the two hosts are joined by Karen Pollock, Chief Executive of the Holocaust Education Trust, for a conversation about their own experiences with antisemitism and how it affects Jewish identity, and the ways Jews in the UK express it.
