Jewish people and pride
Inspired by his experiences with LGBTQ+ pride, Ben M. Freeman aims to empower the wider community in supporting Jewish identity
Ben M. Freeman’s new book is helping reshape how Jewish people view antisemitism, as well as non-Jewish perceptions of what it means to be a Jew.
Inspired by his experiences with LGBTQ+ pride, Freeman now aims to empower the wider community in Jewish Pride: Rebuilding A People.
Freeman writes: “Despite what the non-Jewish world tells us, we have a choice. We can reject who we are, or we can reject the non-Jewish world’s idea of who we are.”
Historian Simon Sebag Montefiore describes Jewish Pride as “fascinating, inspiring and heart-breaking, a cultural and historical survey of Jewishness in the perilous intolerant new world of the 21st century that is both exuberant and optimistic, and tragic and worrying”.
Jewish Pride: Rebuilding a People by Ben M. Freeman is published by No Pasaran Media, priced £12.99 (paperback)
