For 50 years, AJC’s Jacob Blaustein Institute for the Advancement of Human Rights (JBI) has worked to combat religious intolerance, end torture, and oppose all forms of discrimination, issues of central importance to the Jewish community and beyond.
In June 2021, AJC released its annual survey of American Jewish opinion along with a companion survey capturing the views of Israeli Jews. The two surveys shed light on the perspectives of American and Israeli Jews on a range of important topics focusing on the relationship between the Jewish state and the Diaspora, attitudes toward President Biden, and much more.
The American Jewish community is a beautiful tapestry made up of individuals from many diverse backgrounds and with many ways of being Jewish. There’s no one American Jewish experience, and each unique perspective only adds to the richness of the Jewish story in America. American Jewish Committee (AJC) highlights stories of American Jews in this video series. Watch the videos here.
