Everyday antisemitism at UC Berkeley.
On World Water Day, Cal Berkeley's Palestinian Public Health group posted an antisemitic charicature on their Instagram account.
The bulbous nosed Jewish stereotype has been used since the Middle ages and was a regular feature of Nazi-era propaganda. Now we see it at one of the top public universities in America.
UC Berkeley has had more of its share of antisemitic activities. There have been assaults on Jewish students, swastikas carved into dorm doors and bathroom stalls, and exhibits glorifying the murderers of Jews. This has a cumulative effect on the psyches of Jewish students, Israeli students, and pro-Israel students and has contributed to creating an unsafe space on campus.
