I haven't watched it yet but I plan to get to it later tonight or tomorrow. If I should have made a new post for this, please move it. I couldn't decide.
I'm about halfway through this video right now, and had to pause it in order to give you a quick "thank you!" for posting this, Dena. Deborah Lipstadt is absolutely riveting. I've been jotting down her quotes while I'm watching this.
"The minute you hear the money thing, bells should go off."
"The one place the far left and far right meet is in the hatred of Jews." (DL quoting her former professor)
"I think that one of the things we have to do is show people the idiocy and the danger of antisemitism."
Professor Lipstadt also brought up the conspiracy theory thing, which was mentioned by Bari during her interview with Bill Maher. That antisemites thrive on conspiracy theories.
I'm going back to watch the rest of this now. Great interview!
Edited for additional:
I just finished watching the rest of this video. What an amazing and inspiring woman Deborah Lipstadt is! I just bought the Kindle edition of her new book: Antisemitism: Here and Now.
There is so much I'd love to talk about, regarding this video. Dena, if you get the chance to watch it tonight, please share your thoughts! That goes for everyone, as well. Please watch (if you're inclined) and share your thoughts.
