Jewish Education Failed to Prepare Us for Antizionism
This section does not lay out these failures to assign blame, but to clarify the urgency. The dominant form of Jew-hatred in the West today is antizionism, and we have built almost no infrastructure to name it, track it, or teach it. Holocaust education neglected Mizrahi history, ignored the MENA expulsions, and erased Soviet Jewry from public memory. We failed to treat antizionism as an object of study, much less a threat. The links offered here are a corrective. They deliberately de-center the Holocaust and classical antisemitism - not to deny their importance, but to address the vacuum we now face.
Why These Resources Matter
Antizionism feeds on historical amnesia and rhetorical distortion. This resource hub offers essential books, articles, media, and educational tools for those committed to understanding - and confronting - the ideological, cultural, and political dimensions of this global hate movement. Whether you're an educator, student, advocate, or simply seeking clarity, these materials are designed to inform, equip, and empower.
