Table of ContentsReviews'A comprehensive but accessible analysis of how antisemitism has historically manifested on the left.' Clive Lewis, MP for Norwich South Author InformationSteve Cohen was a Jewish Marxist activist who died in 2009. He was a member of the International Marixist Group from 1968 to 1974. He wrote a pamphlet against the Prevention of Terrorism Act entitled Apartheid in Britain and was invited in 1976 to speak at a meeting organised by the National Council for Civil Liberties (now Liberty) about its contents. The meeting was broken up by fascists and Steve was knocked unconscious. He was not deterred. Steve championed the rights of the Palestinian people. He was an activist until the end, fighting Tony Blair’s immigration controls as a member of the No One Is Illegal (NOII) campaign. Steve was a member of the Jewish Socialist Group off and on over the years. For most of his campaigning life this had little bearing on his politics, until the Israeli invasion of Lebanon in the early 1980s. He started putting pen to paper for a book full of his condemnation about the aggressors’ actions. During the research, he stumbled across Left antisemitism by self described ‘anti-racists’ time and time again. He was in shock and horrified. This racism perpetuated by leaders of the radical and revolutionary Left was an affront to his senses. The 1984 polemic That’s Funny, You Don’t Look Anti-Semitic was the result of what he found.
