Antisemitism has surged around the world in the year since the vicious antisemitic attack on a synagogue in Poway, California. It continues to increase during the current pandemic, as some have preyed on the isolation, fear, and economic insecurity brought on by the coronavirus to scapegoat Jews and minorities. Join Museum experts as they discuss how we can respond to antisemitism as individuals and as a society.
