CAM’s Coalition in Action – Taking a Stand Against Anti-Semitism
Each week, we highlight the activities of our partner organizations around the world who are doing amazing work to combat anti-Semitism in their communities.
The week of April 26th saw CAM’s partners continuing to raise awareness about Sarah Halimi’s murder and the abhorrent decision by the French judicial system’s decision to let her killer go free. CAM’s campaign to demand justice for Sarah Halimi went viral on social media thanks to collaboration and support from partner organizations in the United States, Canada, Europe, and beyond.
