23 min • 1 season, 4 episodes
Episode synopsis
Right-wing anti-Semitism has become most obvious – once again – at the most recent attack in Halle in 2019. In addition, there are revisionist approaches by right-wing groups to reinterpret Nazi history based on the desire to create a different kind of Germany. Right-wing extremist thinking can also be found again and again in public institutions that don’t want to or are unable to recognize anti-Semitic tendencies.
About The Cause with the Jews
In recent years, resentments and hatred towards Jews have become increasingly aggressive, louder and more brutal. What is at the roots of this development? Statistics show an extreme rise in anti-Semitic incidents in Germany but also worldwide. Berlin, for example, has become the city with the highest number of such attacks in Europe. Whether it’s from the left or the right, among Muslims or simply in normal everyday life - Jews and Jewish institutions are increasingly being threatened and violently assaulted in this country. In this series by Richard C. Schneider, experts and scientists, as well as those affected, attempt to explain the intentional or unintentional mechanisms of anti-Jewish hostility on the basis of historical, social and ideological developments.
