Bret Stephens’ State of World Jewry Address
Episode 456
Wednesday, 4 February, 2026
Is the right way to fight Antisemitism maybe to… stop fighting it?In this special episode, we share The State of World Jewry address delivered by New York Times columnist Bret Stephens at the 92nd Street Y. Stephens, who is also the editor-in-chief of SAPIR Journal, offers a bracing diagnosis of modern antisemitism and argues that it cannot be educated away, apologized for, or solved through allyship. Instead, he calls for Jewish confidence, cultural seriousness, and moral clarity in the face of rising hostility.In this episode:- Why antisemitism is about resentment, not misunderstanding- The false promise of fighting antisemitism head-on- The danger of approval-seeking and respectability politics- October 8th Jews and the identity reckoning- Jewish values as inherently countercultural- Building strength instead of chasing acceptanceThis episode was sponsored by SAPIR: Sign up for the SAPIR journal at sapirjournal.org/CallMeBackMore Ark Media:Want to join Ark Media?
