This week’s focus for Connect 3 is Understanding Antisemitism. Our recently released audit of antisemitic incidents records the highest number since ADL began collecting this data in 1974. On average, there was as many as six antisemitic incidents in the U.S. for each day in the 2019 calendar year.
1: Students
Antisemitism is a symptom of a larger issue that connects with other harmful ideologies. Read, reflect and discuss the current data about the rise of antisemitic incidents in 2019. (For high school and college students)
2: Teachers
The recent surge of antisemitic incidents is very concerning. Use our middle and high school lesson plan to understand the harm antisemitism does and explore ways to challenge the trend.
3: Families and Communities
Our family discussion guide on the state of antisemitism today in the U.S. provides guiding questions to engage your family in a conversation about current trends and what individuals and groups can do to address it.
Please continue to be safe and good health to all.
How is antisemitism impacting both the
Jewish community and the United States at large?
