When Germany targets Jewish artists as antisemitic (DW, 2024-09-12)

“Ever since the German parliament passed its 2019 resolution condemning the BDS movement as antisemitic, different cultural institutions in the country have been uninviting planned guests or cancelling awards, preemptively attempting to avoid controversy and accusations of antisemitism.

“The phenomenon became even more pronounced after the start of the Israel-Hamas war…”

“At the end of August, an open letter signed by prominent Jewish artists and intellectuals was published …, it has collected more than 150 signatories. In it, they express their deep concerns about the draft resolution, which ’claims to protect Jewish life in Germany. It promises instead to endanger it.’
