Yair Rosenberg - Art and Antisemitism and Back Again Ep. 84
The Atlantic’s Yair Rosenberg is one of the most prominent journalists on the planet covering global antisemitism. He’s also an excellent recording artist in the Jewish music space. How do these two things fit together? As Ari and Yair discuss together, this mix is deeply emblematic of the current moment in Jewish, American, and even world history -- both fraught with existential danger and brimming with creative and moral possibility. On the latest episode of Good Faith Effort, they unpack what this means together, discussing everything from Jewish historian Salo Baron; the Biblical Hebrew word for “Passover”; Lil Wayne; the Miami Boys Choir; whether Jews are a race; the place of Israel in the Western imagination; normie cultural sensibilities; Yair’s musical influences; singability in Jewish music; and much more! To listen to Yair’s latest album, “Az Yashir: Songs for Shabbat”, check it out on Spotify here. Good Faith Effort is a production of Bnai Zion and SoulShop.
