What's driving an increase in antisemitism in the United Kingdom?
Brendan McGeever, co-director of the Birkbeck Institute for the Study of Antisemitism and scholar of antisemitism, breaks down rising antisemitic incidents in the U.K. He discusses data and patterns, the idea of a cultural 'reservoir' linking events to local attacks, and evaluates government responses, funding, and education strategies. Comparisons with the U.S. round out the conversation.
