The Anti-Defamation League and the Racial State: Emmaia Gelman on Tour
TOUR STOPS | RSVP OR SIGN-IN BELOW
All events are FREE and open to the public. RSVP is not required but appreciated!
The Anti-Defamation League (ADL) once sought to portray itself as a defender of civil rights aligned with movements for racial justice in the United States. In this groundbreaking study, Emmaia Gelman exposes the ADL’s alliance with American white supremacy and western empire and its historic investment in Cold War anticommunism. Her definitive account shows how the ADL as a Zionist organization has advanced and supported pro-state policing, a hate-crimes framework that obscures racialized structures of power, and a “War on Terror” that has stoked anti-Palestinian racism and Islamophobia.
“The ADL was born of the belief that the best protection from antisemitism was admission into the white racial state and waging a vigorous defense of capitalism, individual rights, and the West against communists and barbarians. And it has never looked back.” – Robin D.G. Kelley
