B’nai Brith Canada plans to release five videos associated with Ontario Anti-Racism Anti-Hate Grant Program workshops it held between April 2022 and May 2023.

The program focused on “anti-Black racism, anti-Indigenous racism, antisemitism, Islamophobia, anti-Asian racism, homophobia and other forms of intolerance and discrimination, which were accelerated during the COVID-19 pandemic,” the nonprofit stated.

It grew out of a 2016 task force and provides “a blueprint for future antiracism initiatives,” B’nai Brith added.

“Jews, Blacks, Muslims, Asians and other marginalized groups can learn from the experiences of one another,” stated Michael Mostyn, the nonprofit’s chief executive officer.

“Our videos demonstrate the power of solidarity in the face of all forms of hatred and provide a valuable anti-racism resource for Ontarians.”

Cairo has taken on the role of mediator, but local media is clearly leaning toward Tehran.
There was never a question whether bar and bat mitzvahs were going to continue, says Rabbi Marla Hornsten at Temple Israel, despite the havoc that had teachers and children evacuate the building.
“We will not rest in the mission to stop the spread of radical Islam,” Texas Gov. Greg Abbott stated.
The panel conducts research on antisemitic activity and works with public and private entities on statewide initiatives on Holocaust and genocide education.
“If it’s something that families are attuned to, then I think it may be a good way to engage the kids on that level,” Rabbi Steven Burg, of Aish, told JNS.
“I was a little surprised at the U.K. to be honest with you,” U.S. President Donald Trump told reporters at the White House. “They should have acted a lot faster.”
