Anti-Semitism AKA Jew Hatred is at an all time high.
The Antidefamation league (ADL) reported in January 2023 that they found 20 percent of adults or 52 million Americans harbor antisemetic beliefs. They also found through other surveys that a rise in workplace harassment exists against Jewish employees.
According to the FBI director, Jews make up 2.4% of the US population but are targets of 60% of hate crimes. This is far higher than ANY other minority group in the US. Let that sink in...
And this was reported PRIOR to October 7, 2023. Since this date, anti-semitism has risen 400% in the United States alone. This is also occuring globally.
Statistically speaking, there are 68 people with antisemetic beliefs per each Jewish person, globally.
16.1 million people in the world are Jewish AND 1.09 Billion people harbor antisemetic attitudes.
0.2% of the world is Jewish AND 13.6% of the world has antisemetic beliefs.
It is critical that we start educating on this in a BIG WAY. Through education comes change. As such, the following are the learning outcomes for this course.
After completion of this course, participants will be able to:
Identify and recognize various forms of antisemitism, from overt expressions to subtle biases.
Analyze the impact of antisemitic remarks and behaviors within the healthcare environment.
