| Indiana House unanimously advances bill defining, banning antisemitism in schools If passed by Senate, law will define antisemitism as religious discrimination; critics fear it will be used to silence talk on Israel, though legislation protects fair criticism Federal complaint filed against American U. for allowing ‘persistent’ antisemitism Suit alleges ‘disparate’ treatment of Jews and Muslims: ‘AU has ignored the discrimination and harassment that Jewish and Israeli students have endured’ US Education Department opens new antisemitism probes into universities, schools Investigations also launched into two largest public school districts in the San Francisco Bay Area, Jewish anti-Zionist professor who praised Hamas Ann Arbor public schools approve contentious Israel-Hamas ceasefire resolution Michigan city’s decision calls for end to fighting and for teachers to discuss conflict with students; some parents opposed process as waste of resources Columbia University chapters of SJP, JVP remain suspended as new semester begins Told they can be reinstated if they show ‘a commitment to compliance with university policies,’ the pro-Palestinian and anti-Israel student groups have yet to do so, say officials Member of new Harvard antisemitism task force signed letter saying Israel imposes ‘apartheid’ Harvard professor Derek Penslar, who was tapped as a co-chair of the new antisemitism task force announced by the university, signed a letter in August that denounced Israel as an “apartheid regime.” The open letter, which is titled “The Elephant in the Room” and has nearly 2,900 signatories, denounced the controversial judicial overhaul advanced by the Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s right-wing government and asserted it had a “direct link” to Israel’s “illegal occupation of millions of Palestinians.” Courtesy of Grom the Reflective in comments yesterday: Harvard faculty form new anti-Israel group |
