Teaching about Contemporary Antisemitism

It is clear that antisemitism did not fade after World War II, but is a global phenomenon that continues to rise. ADL reported a 12% increase in antisemitic incidents in 2019, including an alarming 19% increase at K-12 non-Jewish schools. It is up to all educators to bring the lasting lessons of the Holocaust to students, and to gain accurate and authentic tools to ensure that antisemitism and hate is not allowed to flourish in today's society.

Echoes & Reflections' new Online Course, "Teaching about Contemporary Antisemitism", will give you the resources needed to deliver thoughtful, engaging, and historically accurate lessons on contemporary antisemitism and support students to recognize and combat antisemitism and hate in their schools and communities.
