Join Avi as he interviews Omer Bartov, the Dean's Professor of Holocaust and Genocide Studies at Brown University. Bartov is both an Israeli and a Zionist, and one of the leading academic voices arguing that Israel is committing a genocide in Gaza. They discuss whether Israel's conduct in Gaza is genocidal, strategies to prevent genocide, and what it means to be Zionist at a time when Israel is committing such unspeakable acts.

Some of Omer Bartov's Work:

Infamous NYT article making the case that Israel is committing genocide: https://www.nytimes.com/2025/07/15/opinion/israel-gaza-holocaust-genocide-palestinians.html
