Every time I write, as I did last week, that I dont think anti-Zionism is necessarily antisemitic, I get emails from Jewish readers that are angry, disappointed or sometimes simply baffled. Israel is the political entity through which the Jewish people exercises its natural right of self-determination and control over its own fate, said one typical recent message. How is singling out the Jewish people to deprive it of those rights not antisemitic

The natural response to Jonathan Glazers acceptance speech of an Oscar for is recent movie The Zone of Interest, is one of utter disgust and disappointment. Glazer specifically said that he refutes his Jewish ancestry and secondly accuses Israel (whom he doesnt mention by name) of hijacking the Holocaust by an occupation which has led to conflict for so many, for so many, innocent people. These days, such an accusation by a Jew is probably the most damning accusation imaginable, and when it is leveled at us by the director of an apparently highly successful film, which focuses on the Hoess family of the commander of the Auschwitz Birkenau death camp, and purports to deal with where dehumanization leads, it is hard to ignore

I think its fair to say that a lot of Jews are pretty upset with philosopher Judith Butler right now. That Butler and other Jewish intellectuals who are highly critical of Israel receive a spotlight in the non-Jewish media is not surprising, but in this case, something else has occurred.

In the last five years, amid the racial reckoning in the US, the pandemic, economic challenges, and the October 7 attacks on Israel, the Jews of Color Initiative (JoCI) has made steady progress toward our vision of a Jewish community that reflects racial equity and diversity and centers the leadership of Jews of Color (JoC). Now in our seventh year, we are beyond the start-up phase of an organization, those first few years of organizational infancy when a few easy wins are often to be had. We are increasingly aware that supporting serious research is strategically vital for advancement and growth in our field.

(March 8, 2024 / JNS) The Indiana state House voted unanimously on Friday to approve an amended antisemitism bill, which includes the text of the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA)s working definition of antisemitism but not its accompanying 11 examples. House Bill 1002, which now heads to Gov. Eric Holcomb, a Republican, originally had the IHRA contemporary examples, but the state Senate removed them.
