## Resource

https://www.theteanetwork.co Was the creation of the state of Israel really the only answer to antisemitism? Nearly three years into Israel's genocide in Gaza, support for Israel has fallen sharply across much of the Western world. And as old political certainties begin to fracture, more people are asking questions that once seemed almost impossible to ask. Was Zionism inevitable? Were there other visions of Jewish freedom? And what can these forgotten traditions tell us about the future? This week on The Tea, we’re joined by award-winning artist and journalist Molly Crabapple. In her New York Times bestselling book Where We Live Is Our Country, she resurrects the extraordinary history of the Jewish Labour Bund — a movement that imagined Jewish liberation not through a nation-state, but through solidarity, equality and the fight for justice wherever Jews lived. Also in the show: ⚡ Nationalism vs internationalism: two competing visions of Jewish liberation ⚡ The Bund: the forgotten Jewish movement that challenged Zionism ⚡ From antisemitism to Islamophobia: the politics of scapegoating minorities ⚡ Hebrew vs Yiddish: the battle over Jewish identity and memory ⚡ After Gaza: the sharp decline in support for Israel ⚡ Zohran Mamdani and the legacy of Yiddish socialism As our guest explains, these forgotten histories challenge the stories we’ve inherited — and force us to rethink identity, belonging and the fight for freedom today. These chapters are optimized for YouTube search and retention while accurately reflecting the flow of the discussion. #TheTeaWithMyriamFrancois #MollyCrabapple #Zionism #Gaza #genocide #Israel #Palestine #TheJewishBund #Mamdani #antizionist #journalism AUDIO CREDITS Presenter–Producer: Dr. Myriam François Guest: Molly Crabapple Senior Producer: Sa…
