Antisemitism in K–12 Public Schools Is All Too Common

A now infamous joint statement from several Harvard student groups deemed Israel “entirely responsible for all unfolding violence.” When students at the University of Wisconsin–Madison chanted “glory to the martyrs” and “by any means necessary,” the school struggled to craft a response, opting to call these abhorrent proclamations “respectful dialogue.”

If only such loathsome views were confined to higher education. Alas, antisemitism is alive and well in American public schools.
