By Marc Rod Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-MI), speaking to a gathering of Jewish activists on Capitol Hill, highlighted concerns about rising left-wing antisemitism and the ways that antisemitic narratives are being spread to and by college students. "We're used to the right-wing side. What is new and what I think has so many in the Jewish community on our heels is that new left-wing antisemitism and how to approach it," Slotkin said at a pre-High Holidays security briefing organized by several Jewish communal organizations. "How do we counteract it? How do we protect against it? How do we educate?" "And certainly, we're watching, on many college campuses, a lot of young people who actually maybe didn't grow up with the Jewish community at all, get to campus and maybe repeat what they're hearing, sometimes not even understanding or knowing," she continued. |
