For the first time in generations, antisemitism has become a daily reality in America, and it’s getting worse.

From Brooklyn in the 1960s to Harvard in the 1970s to the inside of a secure bunker on January 6, 2021, Schumer takes readers on a personal journey of how Jewish Americans like him have come to understand their history, their place in America–and why they worry about the future of Jewish life in America.
