NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER

From two New York Times bestselling authors, a timely, disarmingly honest, and thought-provoking investigation into antisemitism that connects the dots between the tropes and hatred of the past to our current complicated moment.

For Emmanuel Acho and Noa Tishby no question about Jews is off-limits. They go there. 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?

The questions—and answers—might make you squirm, but together, they explain the tropes, stereotypes, and catalysts of antisemitism in America today.

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.

Informative and accessible, Uncomfortable Conversations with a Jew has 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.” Activism & Social Justice Judaism Social Sciences

We need more understanding of each other overall, not just go by assumptions and what social media feeds you, because that might easily give only one perspective and I think this was a really good part in that process

As someone who has read a lot around antisemitism, this book was not necessarily made for me, but I wanted to give it a go nevertheless, as a follower of both Noa and Emmanuel. If you are someone who is interested in how antisemitism functions and how you can recognise and call it out, I think this is a great starting point. It’s easy to digest, well read and engaging. Unfortunately I think the vast majority of the people who would benefit most from reading this won’t give it the time of day.

It is an essential book for anyone who’s not familiar with the history the terms of this subject to read.
The experience of past 9 months has been more powerful than my entire life combined. Powerful in many ways. As Noa said, there is PTSD, and there is also PTG (post-trauma growth). And without any doubt, we will thrive again!

Very balanced and honest conversation about a subject that so many people are passionate and outspoken on without having a true understanding about what they are actually talking about. great book which doesn't hide from the difficult questions.
