So cool to get talented writer Bari Weiss in book form. Grateful to be away from the painfully predicable and boring white noise of the internet.

Her book is How to Fight Anti-Semitism and it’s from Crown Publishing and it’s out now!

I’m really excited for this to be out in the world. Out September 10 from @CrownPublishing. pic.twitter.com/7o3Eq2WUSk
