Challenging Antisemitism in all its forms Let's Talk Social Work

    • Society & Culture

In this episode, Andy McClenaghan is joined by guests Sam Lethbridge, Incidents Manager at the Community Security Trust and Paul Shuttleworth, Professional Officer with BASW England to discuss antisemitism—what it means, what its impacts are and how social workers can stand against and address antisemitism across our society. 
 
Both Paul and Sam draw on their personal experiences as British Jewish people as they share their views on how antisemitism affects them and their communities.
 
Community Security Trust (CST) is a charity that protects British Jews from antisemitism and related threats. If you are the victim of an antisemitic incident or you have information regarding an antisemitic incident that happened to somebody else, please contact CST https://cst.org.uk/report-incident. 
 
David Baddiel’s book, ‘Jews Don’t Count’, is mentioned several times during the conversation as something Paul and Sam found reflected their own experiences of antisemitism. To find out more about the book visit https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/52710961-jews-don-t-count
During the conversation, reference is made to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Organisations, including Amnesty International have claimed Israeli authorities are committing the crime of apartheid against Palestinians.
