A new, final report from Columbia University’s Task Force on Antisemitism details the day-to-day lives of Jewish and Israeli students who faced discrimination on campus due to their race or religion.

“When students are told that there is a country called Palestine from which Jews are stealing land, this mythology brings renewed vigor to ancient, hateful slurs about Jews, and leads directly to hateful actions,” he said.

Menken continued by stating that the examples in the taskforce report have “real consequences for all students: disrupting classes to silence opposing voices is a tactic acquired from the Nazi Brownshirts, and is no more acceptable behind its newest facade.”
