Antisemitism, An American Tradition with author Pamela S. Nadell
The Jews have known Antisemitism in America since they landed in New Amsterdam in 1654. Despite the nation’s ideals, negative stereotypes led to social and professional restrictions, vandalism, and violence. Antisemitic incidents are increasing annually. Pamela S. Nadell’s book, Antisemitism, an American Tradition, explores this history and how Jews fought back through legal channels, advocacy organizations, and alliances against hate. Her work urges us to confront this enduring hatred.
Pamela S. Nadell is the Patrick Clendenen Chair in Women’s and Gender History and director of Jewish Studies at American University. Her works include the 2019 NJBA Jewish Book of the Year, America’s Jewish Women. She lives in North Bethesda, Maryland.
