The State of Antisemitism in America

Hosted By: American Jewish Committee (AJC)

How have the events of October 7 impacted American Jews’ perceptions of antisemitism in the United States? Compared to one year ago, do American Jews feel less secure? Have American Jews altered their behavior on campus or in the workplace due to concerns about rising antisemitism? And how do these issues resonate with the American general public? Join Holly Huffnagle, AJC U.S. Director for Combating Antisemitism, Laura Shaw Frank, AJC National Director of Contemporary Jewish Life, and Julie Rayman, AJC Managing Director of Policy and Political Affairs, to answer these questions.
