Words of the Week: Tanya Gold and Vivian Bercovici

Today: links to two powerful columns on what transpired in Amsterdam last week. (Note, both were published before they could account for what transpired last night in the same city.)

First: Tanya Gold on “The Horror of the Amsterdam Riots” for The New Statesman.

And then: Vivian Bercovici’s “There’s No Excuse for the Amsterdam Pogrom” for Canada’s National Post. (I learned about this one through Bercovici’s latest Substack post; I’ll repeat my recommendation that it’s worth subscribing to her Substack and podcast.)

an assortment of screens: laptop, phone, tablet, plus other desk items, and a text label that reads, "Words of the Week"
