Whether you think Jewishness is a religion, a race, a cultural identity, or if you are a Jew and think that other types of Jews are not really Jews because they aren't religious enough or they aren't Zionist - none of it matters to antisemites. Focus Claudia Eller Chief Production Officer To complement our Oct. 18 summit on Hollywood and Antisemitism, Variety has devoted 15 pages to a special editorial feature echoing similar themes. Validating someone seems like an obvious response, but it can be hard when it comes to antisemitism because we often make the mistake of using the worst antisemitism as a yardstick.
