Students are already returning to college campuses across the country. And they are already facing discrimination and hate, not the least of which is coming from angry protestors.
Additionally, this hate and discrimination has spread to the corporate setting and is disrupting the work environment.
As we approach both the Jewish High Holidays and the one-year anniversary of October 7th, we can only anticipate that these things will escalate.
The Brandeis Center, a leading nonprofit human rights organization, is leading the fight to help students, employees, and Jews, stand up to this discrimination and hate on campuses and in corporate settings. We have hired some AMAZING lawyers over the summer. We need MORE!
