Canada is special for me. When my grandfather Morris Goldberg + his brother fled antisemitism he made Montreal his home, half-sister to Winnipeg. His parents were actors in Yiddish theater in Paris, Rue des Rosiers, got out well before the Nazis came in, wiped out what was left https://twitter.com/NoraCutcliffe/status/1302670116803534849">https://twitter.com/NoraCutcl...

As a kid I was a @CanadiensMTL fan, still am!

Many ask me about the origin of "Hotez" on my father& #39;s side. A bit of a mystery, they were from Galicia, Ukraine-Poland. The Z not too unusual, for instance Norman Podhoretz, who I seem to remember once wrote an essay on the "Galtizianers", but I couldn& #39;t find it just now

It& #39;s actually a reason I confronted #antivax anti-science groups when they made that pivot to the far right in 2015, and wrote the book. Working on a paper now about the antiscience rallies in Berlin on August 29 sponsored by neo-nazi groups. I can smell antisemitism a mile away
