College students from all backgrounds are determined to work together to fight against all forms of contemporary antisemitism. As we’ve seen with non-Jewish students at Indiana University and Hindu American students from across the U.S., interfaith collaboration is needed to facilitate dialogue, thus lowering the temperature on campuses. As the United States and Canada celebrate heroes, Germany grapples with baffling court decisions. For future generations to be free from the vice of unadulterated hatred, we need to learn the history of infamous antisemites and the living memory of the Holocaust.

Here is a snapshot of how CAM’s global partners are making a difference this week:

 

Spotlight

Indiana University: Meet Indiana University’s “Antisemitism Prevention Task Force,” an inspiring student-led interfaith initiative to fight religious bigotry and nurture Jewish life on campus. We’re proud of Indiana Hillel and Chabad Lubavitch of Indiana for supporting their students to be proud of their Jewish Hoosier identity.

Watch and learn about this inspiring student-led initiative here.
