An article at Substack is titled: “It’s Amazing That the Heart of Antisemitism Lies on Campus”
I don’t think it’s surprising at all: anti-Semitism and general political thuggery have been rising on US campuses for more than two decades…and there is historical precedent in the role of German universities in promoting anti-Semitism. See my new post:
Do we need to beware the ides of June? Asking for a friend.
I grew up in the Chicago area and my earliest joys were trees, birds and cloud formations. If you came to my home, you would recognize my affection for trees and birds. It was only last year in reading Tom Holland’s book Dominion that I heard that birds are descendants of dinosaurs. I’m not married to the literal translation of the Genesis creation account but birds are mentioned on Day 5. And if I heard correctly, there is a “missing link” here in the record, like in the human account. No doubt I will learn more in the future as I have decided that when I retire this year, a bird watching society will be my first outside commitment.
