Listen "Peter Beinart: Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza"
Episode Synopsis
Acclaimed columnist and political commentator Peter Beinart issues a bold appeal to rewrite the narrative of Jewish identity to embrace nuance, tradition and culture. Bringing together his personal experience and understanding of politics with history and a clear vision for the future, Being Jewish After the Destruction of Gaza: A Reckoning is a provocative work that grapples with persecution, victimhood, supremacy, morality and the distinction between the nation-state. Hear Peter tell a new story of Jewish identity in conversation with Debbie Whitmont. This episode was recorded live in May at the 2025 Sydney Writers’ Festival.
