The New American Anti-Semitism: The Left, the Right, and the Jews ([link removed]) is a clarion call—not only to Jews, but to all Americans.
As a nation, we must wake up and face the rising anti-Semitic threat.
But that threat is not coming from its usual source.
The most virulent form of anti-Semitism today is the result of toxic identity politics and anti-Israeli sentiment coming from today’s political Left.
Perhaps the most persecuted people in all of history, Jews have stood tall in the face of unprecedented persecution in all places, at all times. Their culture’s rigorous emphasis on education and achievement catapults them to the upper echelons of the societies in which they live.
But their success too often breeds resentment and jealousy, leading to an ugly anti-Semitism that has led, historically, to unspeakable violence.
In this urgent new work, Dr. Benjamin Ginsberg ([link removed]) —political scientist, professor, and bestselling author—exposes the ugly face of this new, progressive anti-Semitism (which is also thriving in Europe).
To combat it, he urges American Jews to form new political alliances, particularly with evangelical Christians.
The stakes of not doing so, says Ginsberg, are horrifically high—not only for the survival of the Jewish people, but for America’s survival.
Jews have been good for America; and America has been good to the Jews.
But what once was so can change ... and Jews can never afford to forget their history.

Praise for The New American Anti-Semitism
“This book could not be timelier. Benjamin Ginsberg uses his deep knowledge of Jewish history to show that Jews, long identified with leftwing causes, in many ways, are not natural allies of the left. A culture of separateness and high achievement make the Jews vulnerable to political pathologies from wherever they come—and two of the most destructive, anti-Zionism and wokeism, come from the left. With the help of fascinating detail, this book shows that Jews need neither right nor left but a society based on the universal values they brought into the world many centuries ago.”
—David Satter, author of Age of Delirium: The Decline and Fall of the Soviet Union
“Broadly conceived and richly documented, The New American Anti-Semitism is essential reading for all who seek to understand not just ‘the new American Anti-Semitism,’ but also the cycles of lethal antisemitism over the centuries in the Western world. It is vital reading for our own time.”
—Eunice Pollack, Ph.D., author of Racializing Antisemitism: Black Militants, Jews, and Israel, 1950–Present
