When Holocaust Denial Went to Court: The Irving v. Lipstadt Trial with Dr. Kenneth Stern

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

samedi 21 mars 2026 • Durée 50:14

What happens when history itself is put on trial?

In this episode of Jewish Actually, Lila sits down with Dr. Kenneth Stern, the director of the Bard Center for the Study of Hate, who spent 25 years at the American Jewish Committee, and helped develop the working definition of antisemitism later adopted by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance, and has testified before the U.S. Congress on hate and extremism.

Stern also played a key behind-the-scenes role as a special advisor in one of the most consequential legal battles over truth in modern history: Irving v. Penguin Books and Deborah Lipstadt.

In this conversation, Stern takes us inside the case, not just what happened, but how it was fought. From the decision to turn the trial into a case against the denier, to the strategy of relying on expert historians instead of survivors, to the painstaking work of exposing distortions line by line, Stern breaks down the legal and intellectual playbook used to dismantle Holocaust denial in court.

Lila and Stern also explore how the IHRA working definition of anti-semitism and how it connects to hate and extremism today. As one of the leading drafters of the definition, Stern explains its significance and potential challenges, too.

What We Inherit and What We Find: With Artist Baret Boisson

Saison 1 · Épisode 2

samedi 24 janvier 2026 • Durée 51:47

In this episode of Jewish Actually, I sit down with artist Baret Boisson for a deeply personal conversation about identity, lineage, and belonging.

Baret grew up knowing her mother was Jewish, but believing her father was not. Years later, while searching for her birth father, a DNA test revealed something unexpected — she is 100% Jewish. That discovery didn’t create a new identity. It reframed the one she thought she understood.

We talk about what it means to inherit a history you weren’t fully raised inside of, how family truths can reshape self-perception, and how identity evolves over time.

Baret is a major contemporary artist whose work has been seen by over 100,000 visitors in a civil rights museum exhibition. She has completed high-profile portrait commissions, including one of Jimmy Fallon and his family. But, this conversation is about something more intimate — the search for belonging.

If you’ve ever questioned where you come from or how identity forms, this episode is for you.

Jewish Actually: Why I'm Starting this Podcast

Saison 1 · Épisode 1

jeudi 22 janvier 2026 • Durée 05:15

Welcome to Jewish Actually. I'm Lila, and this podcast exists because Jewish identity isn’t a headline, a stereotype, or a comment section debate. It’s personal.

In this first episode, I talk about why I’m starting this show — what I want to question, what I want to unpack, and why the conversation around Jewish life feels louder and more confusing than ever.

This is a space for honest conversations.

No scripts. No performative takes.

Just nuance, curiosity, and real talk.

Because being Jewish right now?

It’s complicated.

And we’re going there.
