Episode 90 – “The UN, Society, and Antisemitism” (Part 2)
hmTv series: Antisemitism, the United Nations, and Society

In Part 1, Dr. Inna Rozentsvit traced her journey from the Soviet Union to American activism.
In Part 2, she and host Dr. Susanne Seperson zero-in on solutions: How do we arm the next generation—intellectually, emotionally, and institutionally—against a resurgence of antisemitism?

What you’ll hear

• Roots before branches – Why Jewish identity starts at the dinner table, not in the classroom, and how parents can turn values like tikkun olam into lived family culture.
• History as self-defense – A lightning primer on Israel’s wars, the mis-use of “Nakba,” and how factual fluency empowers students to debate with confidence instead of fear.
• Campus tactics – Concrete strategies for confronting chants, bias, and hostile professors: from reasoned public debate to withholding alumni donations when universities enable hate.
• K–12 action plan – Making state-mandated Holocaust curricula meaningful (museum visits, survivor testimony) and insisting on zero-tolerance for antisemitic bullying.
• Policy pressure points – Defunding schools that ignore harassment, stripping tax-exempt status from repeat offenders, and the pivotal role of engaged parents and lawmakers.
• One non-negotiable – Name the problem. “Anti-Zionism” that calls for Israel’s destruction is antisemitism; honest language is the first step toward honest solutions.

“Children need to feel belonging before they can understand it. If home isn’t a place of strong identity, they’ll look elsewhere—and sometimes, those places ask them to hide who they are.” —Dr. Inna Rozentsvit
