Barnaby Raine (born May 1995) is an English intellectual historian[1] and activist.


Background and Career

Raine is Jewish[2], and is the son of businessman Henry Raine.[3]

As of February 2024 Raine is writing his PhD at Columbia University on "the decline of thinking about the end of capitalism",[4] and is a member of the 'Editorial Collective' of Salvage, "a bi-annual journal of revolutionary arts and letters".[5] Raine has written for a number of publications on topics such as the Israel/Palestine conflict and anticolonial history, including The Guardian[6] and Jacobin[7].

Activism

As a teenager, Raine spoke out against the planned increase in university tuition fees.[8] Raine has described volunteering at the Stop the War Coalition around this time, as well as for advocacy group Liberty, and being involved in protests against the 2001–2021 War in Afghanistan.[2]

In 2014, while a student at the University of Oxford, Raine organised a debate hosting speakers who were involved in a boycott of the Oxford Union.[9] He also protested against Marine Le Pen's visit in 2015.[10]

In a 2017 interview with Al Jazeera, Raine described himself as a "firm anti-Zionist", and called Israel "instilling [oppression] with gruesome violence" a "betrayal" of Jewish values, which he believed to be "mending the world" and standing "at the forefront of struggles against oppression and exploitation".[11]
