Why did the holocaust happen? | Hasidic woman Pearl

This conversation did not go as expected. It turned into a discussion about Hasidic anti-Zionism, whereas I thought it would be a gentle discussion on faith. Since I did my first video with Pearl three years ago, my friendship with her has deepened and become richer. Still, we have always had deep ideological differences. I am no longer Hasidic, and I reject many of the beliefs of my upbringing. Pearl is a deeply believing Hasidic woman who not only lives a joyous life in the heart of her world, but in a way, she is also a vanguard of the views of the post-Holocaust generation. I believe that her passion for speaking up on her anti-Zionism is partly driven by her sense that this view is being lost among the younger generation in her community. I think this motivated her to make this interview about how faith relates to the Holocaust and Israel. During the interview, I was fairly certain I would not air it—partly because I felt an urge to protect Pearl, and partly because I felt an urge to protect Zionism/Israel. (In the spirit of full disclosure, I'd say I'm a Zionist -- which of course doesn't mean carte blanche support for anything Israel does. I don't believe Israel is a perfect state, and I think its actions should be open to criticism. Still, I also believe that the world's outsized obsession with the perceived sins of Israel is often motivated by an undercurrent of anti-semitism.) After some deliberation on whether I should publish or not, I came to believe that neither of these impulses to protect was the right one. I’m grateful to live in a free society where we can disagree and not shy away from difficult discussions, even if someone might try to weaponize them. And so, with that in mind, I decided to share the interview. I did not add captions for Yiddish words within the video itself, but they are available through the subtitle feature—if you turn on CC, you’ll see the translations.
