Artists Under Fire: The BDS War against Celebrities, Jews, and Israel

Set in the world of entertainment, this new book helps readers understand the connection between antizionism and rising global antisemitism.

Today, Jews are being attacked on the streets in New York, Los Angeles, and Toronto. In London, cars drive through Jewish neighborhoods as their passengers scream out calls for violence against us. On the right, it is the self-proclaimed neo-Nazis who murder Jews in synagogues and grocery stores. Jew-hatred, however, owes no allegiance to politics. Radical left-wing politics have created the boycott, divestment, and sanctions (BDS) campaign against Israel, and it is fomenting worldwide antisemitism.

Meet Lana Melman, author and entertainment industry insider, and purchase your autographed copy of her book, Artists Under Fire, in these in-person events.

In her book Artists Under Fire: The BDS War against Celebrities, Jews, and Israel, Melman recounts stories involving Scarlett Johansson, Alicia Keys, Rihanna, The Rolling Stones, and other artists, who have been used as pawns by BDS in its crusade against Israel and calls out a group of artists led by Roger Waters (from Pink Floyd) who have joined the BDS movement. She also provides the reader with a step-by-step plan to combat this newest form of antisemitism.

Jew-haters have weaponized culture, and Jews everywhere need to pay attention to this now. We are a diverse people leading different lives, but when the sky darkens with hate, to the rest of the world we look amazingly alike.
