October 2021 – Antisemitic violence is sharply rising and becoming more prevalent, indicating that existing programs and traditional solutions are not enough. As trusted public institutions with diverse audiences, how can archives, libraries, museums, and cultural institutions use their unique strengths to combat antisemitism and create lasting change?

This critical question is at the core of Confronting Antisemitism: Activating Archives, Libraries, Museums, and Cultural Institutions in the Fight Against Antisemitism, a symposium made possible with support from the David Berg Foundation and the Leon Levy Foundation, and presented virtually to an international audience by the Center for Jewish History and jMUSE on Sunday, October 17, 2021.
