Many thought we, in America, were immune from this resurgence, but swiftly and violently Jews in America, are also targets for that unique hatred. The FBI statistics (2019) confirm this. <strong>Attacks on Jews accounted for 60.3% of all religion-based hate crimes<\/strong>. The highest, by a wide margin, of any targeted religious group.<\/p>\n<p>Yet, to judge by the level of reporting on this in the mainstream media, one would have no idea just how bad it has become. In fact, most Americans are completely unaware of the extent of antisemitism in the United States and around the world. A recent <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ajc.org\/AntisemitismReport2020\/Comparing-American-Jews-and-General-Public\">study by the American Jewish Committee<\/a> (2020) bears this out.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s why the JCRC has compiled a list of <a href=\"https:\/\/jewishpb.org\/fed\/index.php\/2021\/11\/30\/resources-for-standing-up-to-hate-2\/\">recommended resources <\/a>from across the political spectrum that you can turn to for balanced information about issues affecting Jews, Israel and antisemitism.
