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.
In the week of April 26th our partners promoted the campaign and petition #JusticeForSarah and mourned the tragedy at Mount Meron on the Jewish festival of Lag B’omer. CAM partners around the world stood in solidarity against hateful online celebrations of the deaths in Israel and organized events to raise awareness about the grave injustice committed against Sarah Halimi.
