Jews Don’t Count book cover

Jews Don’t Count

David Baddiel

This compelling book tackles an often-overlooked topic: the history of anti-Semitism. Comedian and writer David Baddiel argues that those fighting against racism, homophobia, transphobia, and disablism have missed an important subject. In this thought-provoking read, Baddiel presents his case with a unique combination of jokes, personal experience, and reasoning. Discover why, in a world focused on minority rights, Jews don’t count as a real minority.

Will add to the chorus of great reviews for @Baddiel's 'Jews Don't Count'; a fascinating, thought provoking and thorough account of the biases, blind spots and hypocrisies of progressives. The book is literally a longer conversation than what can be said on Twitter. A must read.      source

Jewish people are not "too powerful" or "too rich" to be affected by racism – history has repeatedly shown that anti-Semitism has genocidal consequences when ignored. This is a brilliant book and documentary, and I urge everyone to watch it:      source

Such an interesting book by @Baddiel called 'Jews Don't Count. ' So good I've asked him to come on the show and talk about the 'hierarchy of racism' and not the "Jewish space laser". @bbc5live      source

This is a very good book. Essential reading for anyone who has been confused about antisemitism on the Left in recent years and, essentially, what the Jewish British experience has become. Bravo, @Baddiel      source

Such a good important and essential book. As was the article. Both reveal the hierarchy of racism that contradicts history in favour of ideology. For example did u notice those who didnt mention Jews at all on Holocaust Memorial Day,trying to make it a day when all lives matter?      source
