What's working (and what's not) on campus antisemitism
The Glue, with Eric Fingerhut
10/01/24 • 29 min
Over the summer, Jewish Federations joined with many other organizations to urge universities to make some changes in order to prepare for the onslaught we knew would be coming in the fall. While we’re happy to report that we’ve made some significant progress. there is still so much more work to be done, and unacceptable levels of vitriol and harassment of Jewish students.
Earlier this month, at the University of Washington, we saw one of the ugliest versions of this phenomenon in play when a group of leaders speaking up about antisemitism–not Israel or Gaza, but antisemitism–were shouted down and forced to evacuate for their own safety.
One of those leaders was Solly Kane, the President and CEO of the Jewish Federation of Greater Seattle, and Lauren Steinberg, Managing Director of Civic Engagement here at Jewish Federations of North America, who is taking the lead on the college campus issue. In this episode, we discuss what's happening on campuses, what's working, and what's not in the fight against campus antisemitism, as well as how it affects the broader community.
Read Washington Gov. Jay Inslee's full letter in response to calls for him to speak out about what happened at University of Washington.

Inside the secret meeting with President Zelensky
The Glue, with Eric Fingerhut
07/15/24 • 33 min
Last month, a delegation of North American Jewish leaders quietly arrived in Kyiv for a first-of-its-kind mission to take stock of the war and its effects on the Jewish community. During that trip, the group was granted a last-minute audience with Ukraine's (Jewish) president Volodymyr Zelensky. In this episode, we discuss what happened in that meeting and talk to Ukrainians on the ground about how their community is powering through these uncertain and difficult days.
We hear from Eli Buzunov, the American Joint Distribution Committee's (JDC) Missions Coordinator in Ukraine, and Keith Shapiro, a Chicago-based Federation activist who has helped lead the charge on the issue.

Behind the scenes of TikTok's antisemitism problem
The Glue, with Eric Fingerhut
04/02/24 • 27 min
TikTok has an antisemitism problem. One study found that people who use TikTok for 30 minutes or more daily are 17% more likely to hold antisemitic or anti-Israel views, compared with 6% for Instagram and 2% for X (formerly Twitter). In late January, TikTok's top government relations professional in Israel Barak Herscowitz resigned in protest, alleging antisemitism on the social network's platform. In the latest episode of "The Glue," Herscowitz tells Jewish Federations of North America President and CEO Eric Fingerhut about what he saw that led him to that decision.
