Ruth K. and Shepard Broad Distinguished Lecture Series

Antisemitism has been called the world’s oldest hatred. It is a tangible threat not only to Jews, but also to the very fabric of democratic societies. In recent years, we have witnessed violent attacks on Jews and Jewish institutions, proposals in some countries to ban central Jewish religious practices, and anti-Jewish sentiments and hate crimes emanating from the far left, the far right and from extremist ideologies. Join us for a timely conversation that explores the opportunities and challenges to confront antisemitism.
