This month, the United Nations will celebrate 20 years since the infamous Durban Conference in 2001, an event that descended into an unhinged display of Jew-hatred and antisemitism, while giving birth to the modern BDS Movement and campaign to delegitimize the State of Israel. In this special ‘How We Fought Against …’ Podcast, we speak to world-renowned attorney Richard Heideman, who as President of B’nai B’rith International in 2001, served as Head of Delegation in Durban. Richard will take you behind the scenes of the Durban conference, discuss its ripple effect on international law today and the lessons to be drawn.
