Melbourne Writers Festival — John Button Oration: In the Face of Hatred

In Antisemitism: Here and Now, Deborah Lipstadt argues that trying to defeat an irrational supposition ‘with a rational explanation is virtually impossible’. What then does one do in the face of hatred? Lipstadt proposes a way forward in a hostile and divided world.

Deborah Lipstadt is Dorot Professor of Modern Jewish History and Holocaust Studies at Emory University. Her books include The Eichmann Trial, Denial: holocaust history on trial (a National Jewish Book Award-winner), Denying the Holocaust: the growing assault on truth and memory, and Beyond Belief: the American press and the coming of the Holocaust, 1933–1945. Her most recent book is Antisemitism: here and now. She lives in Atlanta.
