In this special event, authors from a themed issue of Journal of Jewish Education discuss their articles on antisemitism on college campuses since October 7. The issue spotlights cutting-edge research to broaden and deepen our understanding of antisemitism and anti-Zionism by analyzing their contemporary manifestations and implications for Jewish education and learning. This webinar features the following authors speaking about their papers:

• Vikki Katz (Chapman University): Unsettled Ground: How Jewish Undergraduates are Negotiating Identity Shifts and (Un)civil Campus Discourse after October 7
• Rebecca Kobrin (Columbia University): Anti-Israelism, Social Media and the College Campus in the Aftermath of 10/7: The Case of Columbia
