Was Chesterton Antisemitic?

Breakpoint

About this episode

His words may at times offend our post-Holocaust sensibilities, but taken in context, Chesterton emerges mostly as a friend and defender of the Jews.

This month, the Colson Center has teamed up with Chesterton scholar Dale Ahlquist to create an exclusive set of videos on Chesterton's understanding of the purpose of family. Ahlquist has recently compiled a new book of Chesterton's essays, titled The Story of the Family. For a gift of any amount, you may receive this book and access to the video series at colsoncenter.org/October.
