The Combat Antisemitism Movement regularly produces videos to educate viewers about antisemitism and inspire people to take meaningful action against this resurgent age-old scourge.

As 2021 draws to a close, take the time to watch and share with your family and friends our five most popular and impactful videos from the year:

1. The unprecedented wave of violence targeting Jews worldwide during the flare-up of Israel-Gaza violence in May only reinforced the truth that anti-Zionism is antisemitism.

2. As acts of vandalism at Jewish cemeteries across Eastern Europe increase, Michał Laszczkowski, a non-Jewish Polish man, is leading efforts to restore them.

3. U.S. Army Master Sergeant Roddie Edmonds refused to abandon his Jewish comrades even when threatened at gunpoint by a Nazi POW camp commander. For his courage, Edmonds was the first American serviceperson to be designated a “Righteous Among Nations” by Yad Vashem.

4. Esther Bejarano survived Auschwitz as a member of the Nazi death camp’s women’s orchestra. She later used the power of music to fight antisemitism in post-WWII Germany. Esther passed away in July at the age of 96. May her memory be a blessing.

5. Israeli singer Yair Levi turned a biblical verse into a song that captured the hearts of millions around the world and brought together communities of all faiths.
