Rise above the Hate

Are Jewish people doomed to be stuck in this cycle forever? Is there a way to escape this history of hate?

Through illuminating source texts and captivating case studies, this course considers the sources of this ancient scourge, along with the appropriate strategies for overcoming it. It’s time to find the confidence to fight hate with hope and to stand tall against antisemitism with positivity, purpose, and plenty of Jewish pride!
