Further thoughts on “‘If you prick me do I not bleed?”: Antisemitism,racism and group analysis - some thoughts.’ A response to Bacha,Einhorn and Lieberman
This article adds to the timely and important argument presented by Bacha, Einhorn and Lieberman (2021): we may all have blind spots in relation to our own racism – and to our own antisemitism. Some antisemitic tropes are repeated so often that they begin to be accepted, unquestioningly, by those who do not consider themselves antisemitic.
