Ep. 293: The UN, Society, and Antisemitism (Pt. 1)
Host: Dr. Susanne Seperson
Guest: Professor Thane Rosenbaum
Produced by: hmTv – The Holocaust Memorial & Tolerance Center
In this hard-hitting first installment of The UN, Society, and Antisemitism, Dr. Susanne Seperson sits down with acclaimed author, legal scholar, and commentator Professor Thane Rosenbaum for an unflinching conversation about the growing normalization of antisemitism in academia, politics, and the media.
Rosenbaum shares his deeply personal journey as the son of Holocaust survivors, tracing how his family’s silence shaped his lifelong pursuit of moral justice and truth. He exposes the ideological pressures within universities, the moral cowardice that silences Jewish voices, and the misuse of terms like “genocide” against Israel. Together, he and Dr. Seperson unpack how historical amnesia, distorted human-rights rhetoric, and cultural hypocrisy fuel today’s hatred—and what Jewish students, educators, and allies must do to confront it.
This episode offers insight, outrage, and hope in equal measure—a powerful reminder that truth still matters and silence is not an option.
