Here’s the final part of my discussion with Canadian film critic and journalist Corey Atad.

We talk about double standards in the way extremism is covered when it comes to different groups, what the Israeli flag has come to symbolize, certain parts of the antisemitism discourse that remain underdiscussed, the demonizing of and consistent Zionist pressure campaigns that Zohran Mamdani is faced with & more.
