 Maybe you’ve seen Fox News pundits blaming this summer’s Black Lives Matter uprising on “out-of-state agitators funded by George Soros.” And you definitely remember the moment around this time last year when Trump called American Jews who voted for Democrats “disloyal.”

 These antisemitic tropes and dog whistles didn’t appear out of nowhere; they’re a vital part of the Right’s strategy to use antisemitism to undermine social movements. Antisemitism doesn’t only hurt Jews; it also undermines all those who are fighting to confront systems of injustice.

 We know this is complex, so our members are putting on local educational workshops about how the Right has used antisemitism to undermine social movements for decades, and how this dynamic is playing out now.
