The Schneider definition of antisemitism
The definition of antisemitism chosen by Jackie Walker
Jackie Walker issued this statement about antisemitism.
In the session, a number of Jewish people, including me, asked for definitions of anti-semitism. This is a subject of much debate in the Jewish community. I support David Schneider’s definition and utterly condemn anti-semitism.
I would never play down the significance of the Shoah. Working with many Jewish comrades, I continue to seek to bring greater awareness of other genocides, which are too often forgotten or minimised. If offence has been caused, it is the last thing I would want to do and I apologise.
