David Hirsh is a British scholar of contemporary antisemitism. Based out of London, he has watched the entire field of antisemitism attacked and delegitimized throughout academia as some sort of Zionist plot. In response, his London Centre for the Study of Contemporary Antisemitism created CASA, the Contemporary Antisemitism Studies Association, as a way to publish scholars in the field and create a safe space for them to conduct their research.

On this episode of the Unapologetically Jewish podcast, David Hirsh and Shana Meyerson discuss the state of antisemitism within UK academia and what Zionist scholars are doing about it.
