EP41 (S3) - Embracing Secular Zionism: Activism, Antisemitism, and Aliyah with Blake Flayton

In this episode, Blake Flayton, a writer, student, and activist, welcomes us into his Tel Aviv world. Blake made Aliyah from NYC a year and a half ago, immersing himself in Hebrew and joining protests against the Netanyahu government. His journey is a compelling narrative of growth and resilience.

Blake explores personal impacts of antisemitism and nuances of Israel advocacy, promising to challenge your perspectives and delve into the complexities of identity and politics.

For those eager to delve deeper into these themes, check out Blake’s Substack, “Bourgeois Nationalist," offering more takes from Tel Aviv, about the wider Jewish world from a liberal Zionist perspective.

Recorded on February 21 (Day 137).
