They \u003ci\u003ego there.\u003c\/i\u003e They cover Jews and money. Jews and power. Jews and privilege. Jews and white privilege. The Black and Jewish struggle. Emmanuel asks, Did Jews kill Jesus? To which Noa responds, \"Why are Jewish people history's favorite scapegoat?\" They unpack Judaism itself: Is it a religion, culture, a peoplehood, or a race? And: Are you antisemitic if you're anti-Zionist? \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The questions--and answers--might make you squirm, but together, they explain the tropes, stereotypes, and catalysts of antisemitism in America today. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e The topics are complicated and Acho and Tishby bring vastly different perspectives. Tishby is an outspoken Israeli American. Acho is a mild-mannered son of a Nigerian American pastor. But they share a superpower: an uncanny ability to make complicated ideas easy to understand so anyone can follow the straight line from the past to our immediate moment--and then see around corners. Acho and Tishby are united by the core belief that hatred toward one group is never isolated: if you see the smoke of bigotry in one place, expect that we will all be in the fire. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e Informative and accessible, \u003ci\u003eUncomfortable Conversations with a Jew \u003c\/i\u003ehas a unique structure: Acho asks questions and Tishby answers them with deeply personal, historical, and political responses. This book will enable anyone to explain--and identify--what Jewish hatred looks like. It is a much-needed lexicon for this fraught moment in Jewish history. As Acho says, \"Proximity breeds care and distance breeds fear.\"\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Emmanuel Acho,Noa Tishby\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e S\u0026amp;s\/Simon Element\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 03\/18\/2025\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 320\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.20h x 5.40w x 0.90d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781668057865\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003eEmmanuel Acho is the #1 \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestselling author of \u003ci\u003eUncomfortable Conversations with a Black Boy \u003c\/i\u003eand the \u003ci\u003eNew York Times \u003c\/i\u003ebestseller \u003ci\u003eUncomfortable Conversations with a Black Man\u003c\/i\u003e.
