Zionism, anti-semitism and the left - Moishe Postone
Interview with Moishe Postone. Postone is a Marxist academic based at the University of Chicago.

But in this text Eva also stands for many other people, whether outspoken or silent supporters of the Syrian regime and its allies. I will not re-post her photo here. In a world flooded with images, it is important to maintain our ability to imagine a moment.
