This session highlighted the histories of left wing antisemitism. We heard from Dr Claire Le Foll (Parkes Institute, University of Southampton) about the ‘Russian Socialists and the Jewish Question’. Then, Dr Charlotte Lydia Riley (University of Southampton) discussed ‘Antisemitism and the British Left, from the late nineteenth century to the 1980s’. The discussion, chaired by Dr George Gilbert (University of Southampton), included questions about myth-making, empires and Jewish/non-Jewish relations, among other issues.
