The CJN Daily

Five ways to tackle anti-Semitism


Listen Later

July 14 was a hectic day for Jews looking for ways to combat anti-Semitism: there were at least three large-scale events held on the subject within 24 hours of each other.

One was a virtual town hall organized by the Centre for Israel and Jewish Affairs, which aimed to gather input from Jewish leaders and ordinary people on the current rise of anti-Semitism.

Another happened in Jerusalem, where different Jewish leaders met with mayors from across the world to hear about different programs being launched, what's working and what isn't.

The third event was a meeting of federal parliamentarians from various countries—including Canada, the U.S., Britain, Australia and Israel—who issued an interim plan on how to fight anti-Semitism online.

Today, we're devoting the entire episode to rounding up the highlights from these events: who spoke, what they said and what the Jewish community can do to move forward in combatting Jew hatred.

What we talked about:
