The director of the Roger Waters documentary, an entertainment lawyer, a Lawfare Project counsel and AIC's executive director, on Waters's antisemitism and his BDS campaigning — timed to his North American tour.

Speakers

  • Ian Halperin

    Director, Wish You Weren't Here

Roger Waters was touring North America until mid-October, so the timing was the point.

Ian Halperin, who directed the documentary, joined Lana Melman, Gerard Filitti of the Lawfare Project, and Cheryl Dorchinsky to go through what Waters says, what his BDS campaigning has cost, and what an audience can do about a stadium act. The first thousand registrants got the film free for the week beforehand and came to the conversation having watched it.
