Dave Rich will discuss his latest book 'From Be’eri to Bondi: Global Antisemitism after October 7’ with Abigail Radnor.

“These are not normal times. The level of antisemitism is unprecedented, Dave Rich, in this series of insightful and analytical essays, helps us understand, as much as one can possibly understand an illogical phenomenon, this tidal wave of hatred. In the fight against the antisemitism, this book constitutes crucial reading.” Deborah E. Lipstadt, Ambassador (ret.), Ph.D. Distinguished University Professor, Emory University

Published as we approach the third anniversary of 7 October, From Be’eri to Bondi: Global Antisemitism after October 7th, tells the story of the rise in anti-Jewish hatred over the past three years through a curated collection of articles, essays, and talks written in real time since the Hamas attack on Israel on 7 October 2023. With additional original content and fresh insights, the book reveals how it has felt for Jews as the world they took for granted began to crumble beneath their feet, and it suggests what can be done to reverse this disturbing shift.

Introduced by Richard Gold, Dr Rich will be interviewed by Lifestyle Editor of the Guardian's Saturday Magazine and co host of Nisht For Me, the podcast that celebrates the ins and outs of British Jewish Culture, Abigail Radnor, at a Central Manchester location, and will then sign copies of his book.
