“And The Angels Sing,” is a Hasidic ניגו (a wordless Jewish melody sung without lyrics) smuggled into swing by Benny Goodman and Ziggy Elman. It moves like a memory: exile → joy → remembering → dancing anyway.

Speaking up for Palestine is not the issue. Targeting Jews under the pretext of doing so is. That sleight of hand,using moral language to justify collective blame or harassment, is one of the most insidious forms of antisemitism.

What does real ethnographic access actually look like?
If you want a serious, grounded conversation about methodology, from people who didn’t study extremism from the outside but gained rare access to figures like Enrique Tarrio and Steve Bannon, this episode of @glitterpillpod is for you.
