SUMMARY:Legal Studies Seminar - Defending Jews from the Definition of\nAnti
 semitism
CLASS:PUBLIC
DESCRIPTION:Summary \n\nThis article\, forthcoming in _UCLA Law Review_\, 
 examines the legal\ndebate surrounding antisemitism in the context of Isra
 el criticism\,\nchallenging definitions that equate such criticism with an
 tisemitic\nspeech. It argues that current legal definitions impose a narro
 w\,\nZionist-centric view of Jewish identity\, harming both Palestinian\na
 dvocacy and Jewish pluralism. Jewish identity is inherently diverse\nand c
 ontested\, with this ongoing debate viewed as a vital feature of\nJewish t
 radition.\n\nThe article traces the evolution of antisemitism's legal defi
 nition\,\nfocusing on the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IH
 RA)\nworking definition. To counter the harms of this definition\,\nthe a
 rticle proposes a novel legal framework\, arguing that\ncriticizing Israel
  can be an exercise of religious freedom for many\nAmerican Jews and that 
 antidiscrimination laws should protect Jews\ntargeted for their political 
 positions.\n\nReinterpreting U.S. constitutional protections to safeguard 
 the\nplurality of Jewish identities offers a new understanding of religiou
 s\nliberty that allows Jewish communities—and potentially\nother groups
 —to determine how religion and politics intertwine in\ntheir identities.
   \n\nABOUT THE SEMINAR SERIES:\n\nThe Joint Legal Studies Seminar Series
