ADL REGIONAL UPDATE

"Antisemitism on the left is subtler than on the right. But it’s getting worse."
This week, ADL CEO Jonathan Greenblatt wrote a new op-ed in The Washington Post. He explains why we can't ignore the decision by the progressive Sunrise Movement’s DC chapter to exclude Jewish groups from a rally because of their support of Zionism and the State of Israel. “Excluding Jews and Jewish groups from civic life,” he writes, "is antisemitic, no matter who is doing it."

The ADL-Hillel Campus Antisemitism Survey: 2021
Jewish students in the United States report that antisemitism continues to be a looming and present threat on college campuses. Their concern about antisemitism can impede their ability to participate in classes, join clubs and display their Jewish identity proudly.


Within the last year, nearly one-third of Jewish students personally experienced antisemitism directed at them on campus or by a member of the campus community. The most common forms of antisemitism were offensive comments or slurs online or in person. For those who experienced offensive comments or slurs directed at them in person, 79 percent reported that it happened to them more than once. One student described an incident at a party where someone gave a Nazi salute after finding out they were Jewish.

As Trial Begins, Unite the Right Defendants Find Themselves in Changed Circumstances In the four years since the Unite the Right rally (“UTR”) in Charlottesville, Virginia, the major players and groups have undergone seismic change. This is certainly true for the defendants in the Integrity First for America lawsuit, which
[link removed]
goes to trial this week.


In stark contrast to the white supremacist movement that formed alliances and crisscrossed the country in 2017, holding in-person events that culminated in the Unite the Right rally in August of that year, today’s groups and leaders reflect a loss of membership and influence. Legal challenges have found some imprisoned and others on the run, while others have departed the white supremacist movement entirely. The few groups that remain are embattled and disunited.
