I took a Holocaust course under Professor Browning ages ago while in grad school at Wisconsin. He now teaches at my undergrad alma mater, 5 miles from my house. This couse is quite interesting so far.
The origins of antisemitism go all the way back to the Old Testament. It started with the story of Abraham and Sarah lying to Pharaoh about Sarah’s status as an ‘unmarried woman’ in order to be 'treated well' and gain access to the highest levels of power in Egypt. Pharaoh and his harem come down with a "mysterious illness" (venerial disease) and Pharaoh confront Abraham about his trickery and kicks Abraham and his followers out of Egypt. So there you have, Pharaoh kicking Abraham out of Egypt was the first act of antisemitism.

Thank you for posting his lectures.
My man here is recording this on a potato. For God's sake, give me an address and I'll ship him a Blue Yeti or something.

Audio is not good at all.
