On this episode of Edge of Sports, Rabbi Brant Rosen joins the show to discuss the current political climate, Zionism, and the administration’s antisemitism.
Where sports and politics collide, hosted by Nation magazine Sports Editor Dave Zirin
This week, we speak to Rabbi Brant Rosen of the Tzedek Chicago Synagogue, a synagogue that claims anti-Zionism as a core tenet of their beliefs. We talk about this perilous moment when an antisemitic administration is weaponizing antisemitism to jail Israel’s critics. We also talk some sports!
