Following the remarks of Pop Culture Icon Kanye West, there has been a rise in antisemitic hate in incidents of assault, vandalism, and harassment targeting Jewish communities in the United States. In response, we partnered with T'ruah: The Rabbinic Call for Human Rights, to offer free, one-hour trainings on how to intervene in antisemitic hate. We facilitated a training on October 26th, November 2nd, and November 9th, resulting in training over 500+ people. We will continue to aim to put a stop to antisemitic harassment, because we believe in a world that is free of harassment and filled with humanity! Join us for our next upcoming one-hour training below!

We are ecstatic to share that we achieved our goal of training 20,000 people in how to intervene when they see street harassment and aiming to make more progress as we enter 16 Days of Activism! 16 Days of Activism is an annual international campaign against Gender-Based Violence and an amazing opportunity for you to make a difference in your community.

We’re proud to join #StopToxicTwitter, a coalition of 60+ civil rights groups urging top Twitter advertisers to stop advertising on the platform if Elon Musk follows through on his plans to undermine content moderation. A number of advertisers have pulled back from Twitter after this call for safety first. Since Musk takeover, hate has exploded and Twitter has failed to enforce its policies to keep users safe.
