El calor de la comunidad, el ardor de la hostilidad: el viaje judío de Yona Speidel
“El sionismo no es una mala palabra”, escribió Speidel en una publicación en redes sociales. “Es la creencia en el derecho de Israel a existir como un estado judío”.

A personal narrative about Jewish identity and Zionism enters a polarized public conversation. The post's assertion that Zionism is not a dirty word signals an attempt to reclaim the term from negative associations. The stakes involve how Jewish communal belonging and political beliefs are discussed in an environment where both warmth and hostility are present. The response to Speidel's post will indicate the current temperature of this debate.
