Instagram Posts Alone Can’t Change Antisemitism
As American Jewish Committee’s Deputy Director of Young Leadership and a young Jewish woman who is active in many progressive spaces, I’ve found myself conflicted. I admire the number of young Jews who are posting and speaking up about antisemitism. It’s been refreshing given that the fight against antisemitism is often a lonely one. However, many of my Jewish peers choose to stay quiet, fearing that raising the issue will seem “too controversial” or “too Jewish.” Others are not prepared to effectively engage.
