About<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

“Is the antisemitism here today worse than it has ever been? Hard to say, because for so very long, almost no one wanted to talk openly about it \u2014 certainly not most of the people committing it, and maybe not even the people who were its victims, fearful that bringing it up would only bring them more hateful attention.” – Pat Morrison, “Antisemitism Has a Long History in Los Angeles”, LA Times<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Join this panel discussion to learn more about why and how antisemitism in Los Angeles is not new and how we, as a community, can work together to stand up against anti-Jewish hate.<\/p>\n
