Name
The History of European Antisemitism
Description
Where does antisemitism come from? This question – often asked when students learn about the Holocaust – is as relevant today as it has ever been. The history of this phenomenon is over 2,000 years old, but courses that deal with the Holocaust often do not consider pre-20th century history. This session will equip teachers in helping students understand the origins of this form of hatred and how it has persisted within modern expressions, allowing students to better understand and combat antisemitism’s current forms. Using an array of interactive primary sources, teachers will experience student activities and receive classroom ready materials.
