Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Jew?
Raphael Shore
October 13, 2024

As antisemitism surges across the globe, from the streets of Europe to college campuses in America, one cannot help but ask: why do people hate the Jews? This question, as old as the days of the Pharaohs – demands more than just historical or sociological analysis. It requires a deeper understanding of what truly drives this persistent animosity and, most importantly, how Jews—particularly young Jews—should respond. My forthcoming book, Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Jew? seeks not only to answer these questions but provide actionable steps one can take to combat this hatred effectively…In this time of rising antisemitism, the answers lie not only in external strategies but in cultivating a deep connection to Jewish identity. My book, Who’s Afraid of the Big Bad Jew, and accompanying film, Tragic Awakening, offer a path to understanding the roots of Jew-hatred, but more importantly, it provides a path to reclaiming Jewish strength and resilience.
