Identity – David Baddiel on Jewishness, antisemitism (and a bit about football)

<p>Rafael Behr talks to author and comedian David Baddiel about his book “Jews Don't Count” – a closely argued polemic about the failure of progressive-left politics to treat antisemitism with the same moral rigour as is applied to other kinds of racism.</p> <p>The frank and at times raw conversation deals with the social and cultural dimensions of one of history's oldest prejudices, as well as the individual emotional and psychological components of a secular Jewish identity. They also talk a little bit about football.</p> <p>David Baddiel's book is published by TLS Books</p> <p><a href="https://www.the-tls.co.uk/articles/jews-dont-count-david-baddiel-tls-books-extract/" rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener" target="_blank">https://www.the-tls.co.uk/articles/jews-dont-count-david-baddiel-tls-books-extract/</a></p>
