“Wherever we live, that is our homeland” – a frontispiece in Daniel Boyarin’s The No-State Solution: A Jewish Manifesto (2022)

A graphic I prepared for a 2016 essay I had written on alliances between right-wing Jews and Christian nationalists got itself published as a frontispiece in Daniel Boyarin’s The No-State Solution (Yale University Press: 2022).

The Humanity Bureau (2017)

By coincidence, I just happened to be watching THE HUMANITY BUREAU (2017) last night.
