Hillel International’s “Understanding Antisemitism on Campus” Curriculum teaches about the origins and evolution of antisemitism and how it manifests today, with a focus on the college campus setting. This video-based curriculum aims to help participants better understand, identify, and proactively address antisemitism.  

The first three sessions of the curriculum each revolve around a short video that introduces each topic. Each video is paired with a video reflection worksheet, facilitator guide, and participant source sheet to help participants gain an understanding of the topics, which are:

1. What is Judaism? Who are Jews?

2. History of Antisemitism

3. Antisemitism Today

The curriculum also includes a fourth session, entitled “Definitions of Antisemitism.”

About the Videos: Launched in partnership with the Anti-Defamation League, and inspired by the work of the Antisemitism Education Initiative at Berkeley, this project was a shared vision and passion of many people who played important roles in drafting and editing scripts, creating video and curricular content, and participating in multiple focus groups along the way to provide critical feedback.
