Notes From The Brink: A Collection of Columns on Policy at Home and Abroad
Jeff Robbins, a nationally recognized First Amendment attorney, former U.S. Delegate to the United Nations Human Rights Commission and a nationally syndicated columnist, is the author of a new book entitled Notes From The Brink: A Collection of Columns About Policy At Home and Abroad (Creators Publishing, May 2024). It is a collection of columns written from 2019 through mid-2024, focusing on an America not merely fractured but altogether splintered by extremism, hyper-partisanship, unprecedented vitriol and widespread disdain for democracy, and a Mideast taken hostage by genocidal terrorist enterprises funded by Iran, the world’s foremost state sponsor of terror.
Mr. Robbins will discuss the state of American politics and journalism, the profound threats faced by Israel and the lethal scourge of antisemitism on the far right and the far left.
This monthly Knosh and Knowledge program sponsored by Jewish Federation of the Berkshires is held at Hevreh of Southern Berkshire.
Litigator and visiting Professor of the Practice of Political Science at Brown University, Jeff teaches courses on congressional investigations and political journalism. He is a weekly columnist for the Boston Herald, writing about politics, foreign policy and national security issues. He is the former Chairman of the New England Board of the Anti-Defamation League, and the former President of the World Affairs Council of Boston.
