American Jewish Committee (AJC), the global advocacy organization for the Jewish people, invites all Americans to join in the celebration of Jewish American Heritage Month each May. Find resources here:
AJC has created this online toolkit for all K-12 schools and institutions of higher education to use to celebrate this special month and support their Jewish students, faculty, and staff.
AJC's Voices Against Antisemitism is a series videos featuring American Jewish celebrities and influencers, reckoning with the impact of Hamas’ October 7 massacre, the rise of anti-Jewish hate, including in the form of anti-Zionism, in the U.S., the hostages being held in Gaza, and why Israel is critical to the Jewish people.
Sometimes the rest of the world feels far away here in San Diego. We watch the crises across the globe and would like to think “no, not here, we’re not affected.” If only that was the case with antisemitism, which knows no boundaries. And in communities where antisemitism has been left to rage unchecked, all of society suffers.
