Thanks @jrpsaki for inviting me to talk about the tactical use of antisemitism by the white supremacist movement in the US to catalyze violence and other forms of racial hatred. This is everyone’s problem.

. @karenleahdunn : "They want an all-white ethnostate in North America and as crazy as that sounds, that's actually an articulated goal of the neo-Nazi and white supremacist movement in the U.S. One of the things that helps them rally the troops is antisemitism."

Brilliant article by Karen Dunn, one of the leaders of the Charlottesville litigation, about how white supremacists are capitalizing on—and instigating—the recent surge in antisemitism. “We allow antisemitism to surge at our own peril.”
