In a time of fake news, rising populism and renewed antisemitism, join two of the world’s leading historians, Sir Simon Schama and Professor Deborah Lipstadt, in conversation with NIF’s global president and UCLA Jewish History Professor David Myers, discuss how our understanding of history shapes our current reality.
Navigating how this plays out in a fractured Israel and a divided America, amidst challenges to democracy and an increase in nationalism and racism around the world, the insights of these two preeminent Jewish scholars of our time will be crucial in working out how to heal these wounds and create more just and tolerant societies.
