EP 96: Uncomfortable Conversations With A Jew: An Interview with Emmanuel Acho and Noa Tishby

In this episode, Mosheh and Jill Wagner sit down with Emmanuel Acho and Noa Tishby to discuss their new best-selling book, "Uncomfortable Conversations With A Jew." They explore the origins of the book and dive into topics such as the history of Jewish stereotypes, Black-Jewish relations and Zionism.

Acho, a former NFL player known for his anti-racism work, and Tishby, a Jewish activist, share the story of how they almost didn't publish the book after having a falling out, providing a candid look at their journey and the challenges they faced. The conversation offers valuable insights into the complexities of identity, solidarity, and the importance of open dialogue.

This is a thought-provoking discussion that tackles tough questions and promotes understanding across different communities. It is essential for anyone interested in the intersection of race, religion, and cultural dialogue.
