Educators joined Associate Regional Director Matthew Friedman, along with Dr. Samuel Edelman and Dr. Carol Edelman from the California Center for Excellence on the Study of the Holocaust, Genocide, Human Rights and Tolerance, for the final session in this year’s Los Angeles Holocaust Education Institute. The topic for the March 26 session was “Anti-Semitism Since the Holocaust.”
The speakers discussed anti-Semitism from “the right” and from “the left” and the correlation between anti-Israel activity and anti-Semitism. Participants also heard about recent issues facing the Jewish community on various college campuses.
