Fund for Irish Studies: Lecture on “Unmasking Conspiracy: Philip Graves and The Protocols of the Elders of Zion” by Fintan O’Toole

Scholar, critic and writer Fintan O'Toole gives the annual Robert Fagles Memorial Lecture, contending that the most toxic forger of all time may be The Protocols of the Elders of Zion, which falsely purports to be the record of secret meetings of Jewish leaders plotting to take over the world. It was used as the basis for the most violent antisemitic propaganda of the 20th century and continues to circulate today. Free tickets required.
