Jonathan Greenblatt, CEO of the Anti-Defamation League, thinks it’s time for the organization to reinvent itself. As American Jews face a historic surge in violence, Greenblatt wants the ADL to rethink its old alliances and go on offense, targeting radicals and the education system that creates them. He joins Adaam James Levin-Areddy to discuss the ADL’s newly published “campus antisemitism report card,” the organization’s historical commitment to classical liberalism and a broader civil rights coalition, the left’s betrayal of Jews, Elon Musk and the Trump administration, and the challenge of differentiating antisemitism from anti-Zionism.
—The ADL’s history is the story of American civil rights
—Playing the liberal game
—The Elon Musk gesture and finding new allies
—Can the Ivy League be saved, or is it time to build something new?
—Antisemitism vs. Anti-Zionism. Can Jews be antisemitic?
