Enough is enough:
We're standing up to Jew hate.
Together with our community and our partners, we've built a plan to combat antisemitism in all its forms.
CJP's 5-point plan
We've seen a 48% increase* in antisemitic incidents in Massachusetts from 2020 to 2021.
We are alarmed; and we are taking action.
Together with our communal partners and the Fighting Antisemitism and Anti-Zionism Task Force, we've proposed a 5-point plan to combat Jew hate.
As part of our mobilization campaign, we're lifting community voices to call attention to the antisemitism so many of us have faced, from offhand remarks to physical violence. Please consider sharing your experience below to help us illuminate and stand up to Jew hate.
We aim to:
-
Face Jew hate. The first part of our strategy is a public-facing awareness, education, and mobilization campaign to fight back against antisemitism.
-
Empower our community. The campaign will direct people to a communal resource hub: a website with curated resources, educational tools, and opportunities to act so that community members are motivated and equipped to stand up and fight back.
-
Build allyship. A key component of our strategy is building stronger relationships with non-Jewish influential people, such that they stand up and publicly speak out about antisemitism, and work to ensure policies are free of discrimination toward Jews and Israel.
-
Inform and educate the next generation. We’re giving young people the tools they need when faced with Jew hate and working to ensure fair and equal treatment of Jews and Israel through the educational system.
-
Strengthen communal security. Finally, a cornerstone of our plan is the growth of our Communal Security Initiative (CSI), where we are doubling our capacity to serve the safety needs of our community.
