This project explores the complicated relationships between antisemitism, islamophobia, and other kinds of racism and discrimination.
An initial workshop took place in June 2022 (Entangled Otherings, reported here). Further workshops are planned for 2023 and 2024.
The project is funded by DAAD-Cambridge.
