Daniel May

Daniel May, publisher of Jewish Currents, joins Ben Lorber, a researcher on antisemitism, and Andrew Marantz, a New Yorker writer, to discuss the recent mainstreaming of anti-Zionist sentiments within the right-wing. They dissect Tucker Carlson's controversial interviews, the rise of figures like Nick Fuentes, and how these interactions reflect a shift in conservative ideology. The conversation also explores the dangers of normalizing hateful rhetoric and the intersections of Christian and white nationalism, ultimately warning against anti-Zionism that aligns with reactionary goals.

Simone Zimmerman, Jewish Currents advisory board member and commentator on Jewish politics, and Daniel May, publisher of Jewish Currents, discuss the Michigan synagogue attack. They examine ties between American Jewish institutions and Israeli policy. The conversation covers community safety, institutional responsibility, media framing, and the push to build alternative Jewish institutions.
