In America, the number of antisemitic incidents has risen to a level not seen in decades. The type of antisemitic incidents has also become more extreme, moving from graffiti, hate speech, and social media attacks, to more violent crimes. In addition to the mental and emotional toll this can inevitably take on our students, antisemitism can impact Jewish identity as well. In this workshop for 7-12 grade teachers, we will discuss the impact of antisemitism is having on students and focus on how to combat these effects by actively building up resilience, Jewish pride, and activist values.
