Judy Rebick: Naomi Klein vs. the “angry Jewish males”
Ms Rebick argues intelligently and passionately in defense of Klein’s position. It is also a position she holds – and I.
I was recently at an event in support of the aforementioned letter (see my post: http://buzzardpress.com/blog/2009/09/15/more-than-a-tiff/) that was interrupted by the Jewish Defense League. They were very politely escorted out. I also know the film maker who rescinded his film from the Toronto International Film Festival. I believe he took a very principled position which will, undoubtedly, cost him a great deal of funding for future movies.
What’s fair is fair and what’s right is right. If anything wrong pops up, we must smack it out of the way. Keep speaking out!
