According to FBI data, almost 10% of all hate crimes in 2022 targeted Jews, although Jews make up only about 2% of our population. Anti-Semitic incidents rose 400% in 2023, before the most recent Israel/Gaza war. Hate that begins with one group rarely ends there. This three-session program will provide the knowledge and training to help stem hate.
Rabbi Grossman will explore how historical tropes of early and medieval Christian Jew-hatred and 20th-century anti-Semitism play out in contemporary anti-Semitism, the difference between legitimate and anti-Semitic criticism of Israel, and how to recognize and thoughtfully respond to various forms of anti-Semitism. Participants will receive resources to help identify anti-Semitic terms and images, as well as key questions and talking points to help facilitate meaningful conversation in response to anti-Semitism and other forms of hate.
May 7: In the Beginning: Christian anti-Judaism from the New Testament to Today
May 14: Morphing Hate: The Rise of Anti-Semitism and Anti-Zionism
May 21: Making a Difference: What Can We Do?
