Antisemitism is understood here as a phenomenon with its own specific features and historical trajectories. At the same time, it does not exist in isolation but intersects in multiple ways with other ideologies, most notably racism.
The semi-public panel discussion examines both the parallels and the differences between antisemitism and racism, asking where their underlying logics overlap and where they diverge. It also explores how these issues can be addressed together in ways that are analytically sound and practically meaningful, as well as the opportunities and challenges involved in developing joint approaches and their implications for alliances within civil society.
Speakers:
• Veronica Sartore (Yad be Yad, Germany)
• Eva Fortes (Barcelona City Council)
• Enerida Isuf (Consell Municipal del Poble Gitano, tbc)
Moderation: Victor Sorenssen (AEPJ)
“Historical responsibility cannot be voted away.” With these words, the Buchenwald and Mittelbau-Dora Memorials Foundation called on the federal and state governments last Sunday to legally safeguard the independence of memorial sites – particularly in Saxony-Anhalt – by: through funding structures that ensure these institutions remain operational even in the event of a politically motivated withdrawal of state funding; through the targeted involvement of smaller memorial sites and local initiatives; and through the expansion of existing networks for joint educational work, legal advice and public support in the event of attacks on the institutions and their staff.
