Disturbingly, every major organization that tracks hate groups and anti-Semitism has reported an alarming spike in anti-Semitic hate and violence over the past three years. However, the history of hate goes back thousands of years. This lecture will explore the philosophical, ideological, and pseudo-scientific roots of anti-Semitism, examine its justifications over time, and consider the links to what is happening today.
