Holocaust Warnings: American Antisemitism and Extremism
Join us as we explore the genesis of hate. We'll look at spiking rates of anti-Semitism, we'll explore civic participation and whether American democracy is at risk, where and how misinformation and disinformation gets its start, and whether it's instructive to look to the past when it comes to the future. And, perhaps most importantly, what possible solutions are out there for all of us.

So much hate.
Such brutal acts.
People committed against one another.
People trying to live, work and raise their families.
Our grandfathers and great grandmothers.
The Holocaust is indeed world history, but it's not ancient history.
And it's clear that hate is still alive and well.
But hate doesn't start with a gun or a knife or bombs or tanks.
It starts with words.
I'm a victim.
I'm a survivor.
I'm a mourner.
A gunman armed with an AR 15 assault rifle.
Something like congregants were shot dead in my sanctuary.
It starts with speech.
Words of hate.
In the next hour.
Join us as we explore the genesis of hate.
We'll look at spiking rates of anti-Semitism.
We'll explore civic participation and whether American democracy is at risk.
Where and how misinformation and disinformation gets its start.
Whether it's instructive to look to the past when it comes to the future.
Isn't there a chance for good?
The answer is yes, there is.
And perhaps most importantly, what possible solutions are out there for all of us.
As we look ahead.
We will rebuild.
Just stop the hate.
Don't say it.
Holocaust warnings.
American anti-Semitism and extremism.
