What is Antisemitism

  • HoCoJAG recommends and endorses the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA) Working Definition of Antisemitism.  The IHRA definition (click HERE) is the only widely adopted definition including by every western democracy and most US states; it is expected to be adopted into federal law in 2025.  It is endorsed and recommended by virtually every major Jewish organization, including the Jewish Federations of North America, URJ, AJC, ADL, B’nai B’rith, COP, Hadassah, the Brandeis Center for Human Rights, Rabbinical Assembly, and many more  (click HERE).
  • Anti-Zionism is, almost always, a contemporary form of antisemitism.
