Two women involved in last year’s vandalism of the OSU Hillel building — Oumaima Amri and Lena Ahmad Shabaneh — have each taken a plea deal that dismissed three of the four charges against them. According to complaints filed by the Franklin County Municipal Court, Amri and Shabaneh entered OSU Hillel’s building — located at […]
What Jewish life looks like for teens from Iceland to Beijing, where the Jewish communities are small and antisemitism is high, By Jacob Gurvis June 13, 2024
"...“People have to seek out to find a group of Jewish people,” Yang said, “Not like the U.S., where I think it’s easier to find Jewish people around you, so people think it’s normal to see someone who’s Jewish..."
It's funny in a way - teens from small towns in foreign lands must think all of the US is like NY or LA. Kids here in flyover country often feel like these kids from small Jewish communities in Europe or Asia - isolated and surrounded by actual or potential hostility.
During BBYO's international convention in Orlando, JTA spoke to teens from Iceland, Moldova, Montenegro and China to hear about Jewish life and antisemitism in their home countries.
#UniversityOfDenver set up an ongoing #GazaSolidarity #encampment demanding DU #divests from #Israel.
#Students with DU chapter of #JewishVoiceForPeace speak on DU’s “failure to consider the entire student body, only prioritizing the voices of the #Zionist sect of #Judaism on campus” & how #JewishStudents who support the encampment are “continually being overlooked & misrepresented by upper administration & peers,” according to the encampment’s media representatives.

These #proHamas agitators aren't even trying to hide their brazen #antisemitism. They sent Jewish students a letter threatening them, their freedom, and their safety if they don't singlehandedly liberate the #Palestinians and destroy #Israel. It's time for these #IslamistTerrorists to stop harassing and committing violence against innocent #JewishStudents, and go find something else to do with their time. Their #lawlessness is getting really tired.
An anti-Israel student group at Columbia Law School sent a threatening email on Friday telling Jewish students that they will be neither "safe" nor "free" until "everyone is safe" and "Palestine is free."
With the lack of safety that Jews are experiencing on US college and university campuses, I thought it might be a good time to bring back up this amazing podcast series called Gatecrashers, about the Ivy League and their treatment of Jews.

#Jewish #students hear #FromTheRiverToTheSea as an open call for the #eradication of #Israel, a haunting proposition given the legacy of the #Holocaust that led to Israel’s creation. The phrase has been printed on fliers & projected onto the facade of a bldg at #GWU George Washington Univ. It has been accompanied by other boilerplate like “Glory to our martyrs,” in which #JewishStudents see praise for killing Jewish #civilians, as #Hamas did earlier this month.
The solemn & peaceable candlelight vigils from earlier this month preceded uglier confrontations, leaving #Jewish college #students feeling anxious, afraid & #unsafe.
Amid what the #Biden admin described as an “alarming rise” of #antisemitism on #college #campuses, some #JewishStudents say they feel more vulnerable than ever before.
