Re: EVENT: Susan Neiman to deliver the 59th Annual Simon Rawidowicz Memorial Lecture, "Racism, Antisemitism, and Rethinking Historical Reckoning" on March 9

Could someone from the Tauber Institute, Brandeis University provide background on the decision to invite Susan Neiman to deliver this memorial lecture? As noted in the invitation, Neiman "has written extensively on the Enlightenment, moral philosophy, metaphysics, and politics" but it appears to me that with respect to antisemitism, her ideological activism in a specific German political context stands out.

On the political role of the German Left in the campaign against the IHRA Working Definition of Antisemitism

As the acceptance and influence of the IHRA working definition of antisemitism (WDA) has expanded, campaigns to counter and replace this have also expanded.  The main alternative is known as the Jerusalem Declaration on antisemitism (JDA) which removes the core Israel-related examples. As the name indicates, the supporters of the JDA seek to legitimize their document as an Israeli-led effort.
