Antisemitic Claims about Religious Texts

Hi I’ve been reading about antisemitism recently and I’ve seen antisemites refer to the Talmud as this sinister text that is violently anti-gentile, (specifically Alice Walker wrote a poem claiming that) and I’m just curious if there are passages in the Talmud that they are completely misinterpreting or if they’re just basing their conspiracy theories on nothing. (I mean they’re baseless conspiracy theories either way, but you know what I mean.) It’s not out of the ordinary for a religious text to contain passages that are somewhat derogatory towards non-believers, so I assume antisemites cite these passages and exaggerate them. Is there a good source debunking specific antisemitic claims about the Talmud and putting specific passages in context?
