## Resource

Historically, America was always one of the friendliest countries towards Jews compared to many countries in Europe, says Batya Ungar-Sargon. But in recent years, there’s a major shift on the left with anti-Semitism on the rise, she says. In this episode, she breaks down the ideological shifts reshaping American politics and explains why she rejects the modern “victimhood hierarchy.” Ungar-Sargon is the author of "The Jews and the Left" and host of “Batya!” on NewsNation argues. Views expressed in this video are opinions of the host and the guest, and do not necessarily reflect the views of The Epoch Times.
