"A brilliant and scathing critique of prejudice. Though Sartre focuses on the the dialectic between Anti-Semite and Jew, his observations are relevant to any discussion of bigotry and othering.
"Sartre shows how wicked were the Nazis to pin a Star on Jews' clothing, thus making their Jewishness the only relevant fact about them. Importantly, the Star poisoned even the generous acts of the well-meaning. By tiptoeing around the stigmatised status, the liberal-minded hoped to treat Jews as if they were just like their own friends, almost resembling those quite ordinary people who lacked this stigmatized status. Belonging to an ethnic minority myself, I feel all of this, fortunately not as strongly as French or German Jews, however. An important book, I think."

"I read this book in a very eye-opening undergraduate class that I took at Indiana University with Professor (Rabbi) Morgan. The course was called: "Philosophical Thought After the Holocaust," and Sartre's book: "Anti-Semite and Jew" served as a foundationaly text by introducing the concept of "bad faith," and the role "bad faith" plays in the rationalization of evil."
