Hundreds of University of California, Berkeley students, professors, and community members marched through the campus on Monday to assert Jewish visibility and presence following an attack last month on Jewish students attending a talk by an Israel Defense Forces (IDF) soldier. Starting at Zellerbach Hall on the south side of campus, the marchers, clad in white shirts symbolizing peace and transparency, heard a speech by UC Berkeley Center for Jewish Studies director Ethan Katz, who linked their fight against antisemitism to the US civil rights movement of the 1960s. Proceeding from there, they walked north, attempting to reach California Hall via a footbridge leading from Sather Gate.

At the 96th Academy Awards ceremony in Los Angeles on Sunday night, British-Jewish director Jonathan Glazer, whose film, The Zone of Interest, had just won the Oscar for Best International Feature, made a somewhat garbled statement critical of the Israeli governments policy, conflating the Occupation with the Holocaust. Many Israeli officials and Jewish leaders criticized the statement, but some Jews in Hollywood actually cheered it. Thats because he did what so few who have criticized Israels decision to respond militarily to Hamass October 7 attack on Israel in which about 1,200 Israelis were murdered (and raped, burned, dismembered, and tortured) and 240 were taken hostage have done: He mentioned the victims of October 7 in Israel.

(March 7, 2024 / JNS) Tufts University is investigating reports of some extremely disturbing antisemitic words and conduct directed at Jewish students who opposed anti-Israel resolutions in the student government and Islamophobic actions against students who supported them. The school will hold accountable any student found to have engaged in these behaviors, wrote the university president and other senior academic officials.

An ad purchased by the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism that ran during the Academy Awards on Sunday is drawing criticism for depicting a bar mitzvah celebrated in a church. Im sure they had decent intentions but this ad sends a poor message, wrote Dovid Bashevkin, director of education for NCSY.
