In this video, we explore antisemitism on college campuses, specifically at Harvard, MIT, and the University of Pennsylvania. As of the publication of this video, one of the university presidents from each school who testified on before Congress this past week has already resigned (Elizabeth Magill at Penn).
The video challenges the prevailing perspectives of all three university presidents and how they've reacted to acts of antisemitism on their respective campuses. It questions the following:
1) If we replaced Jews with another target ethnic group, would the reactions by these university presidents be the same?
2) In university cultures that for almost a decade have even policed microaggressions, how is any of this acceptable towards Jewish students?
3) How can we correct the long and dark history of antisemitism on many U.S. college campuses?
In addition, the video raises prescient questions about whether anti-Zionism equates to antisemitism. What can be done about the antisemitism on college campuses? Is foreign money that's accepted by many U.S. universities to blame? Should we rein in the tax-exempt status of these institutions? Should they focus more on intellectual diversity by hiring a balance of teachers across the political spectrum?
All of these questions and others related to the Israel-Palestine conflict are discussed and debated.
Please tell us your thoughts. So long as they are made in good faith, I will do my best to respond.
Here's to hoping that morality, humanity, and critical thinking can prevail.
