“A Jewish professor who comes from a long line of rabbis and is critical of Israeli policy is currently being investigated for ‘#antisemitism’ by a Dean who is the WASPiest person ever and whose blue blood ancestors barred Jews from their clubs. You just can’t make this stuff up.” https://x.com/moshik_temkin/status/1758633798303133988?s=46&t=521hINbbUzSBIUxrCF_rbg
In spring 2023, the three students who were enrolled in Ganz’s three-week class on organizing community action submitted a proposal to organize Israelis around a shared value of a “liberal-Jewish democracy.”
Ganz, however, told the students to “reframe” their project, calling the idea of a Jewish democracy “a contradiction” because democracies include multiple ethnic or religious groups, according to Ganz’s account of the events.
Ganz described the students’ project as “inflammatory” and said it distracted from the course’s main objective, which was to learn community organizing and not discuss Middle East affairs.
It’s not “antisemitic” to want your damn students to stay on topic instead of making up random projects that don’t match the brief.
