$Why Progressive Identity Politics Inevitably Turns Against Jews | Ariel Whitman Why did October 7 expose such a deep fracture between many Jews and their former progressive allies? In this clip from my conversation with Leo Kearse, I question whether a political worldview centered heavily on power, privilege and oppression inevitably creates tension with Jews who are perceived as successful or influential. I discuss conversations I had with progressive Jewish leaders after October 7 who were shocked by the response from people and movements they had previously considered allies. The broader question is whether Jews can fit comfortably into an ideological framework that increasingly divides society between perceived oppressors and oppressed. #ArielWhitman #Antisemitism #October7 #ProgressiveLeft #Israel #Jewish #IdentityPolitics #youtubeshorts$
