On Oct 21, the Jewish Faculty Network published The CIJA Report documenting what the six authors say is a pattern of anti-Palestinian racism and genocide denial at the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs. They wrote the report to shine a light on how the current discourse about antisemitism in Canada serves to manufacture consent for Israel’s genocide in Gaza. We speak with Sheryl Nestel, one of the authors of the report. She is a retired sociologist and long-time member and leader of Independent Jewish Voices Canada.
