U.S. Chargé d’Affaires Alan Meltzer highlighted efforts to combat Jew-hatred during a May visit to Baden-Württemberg in southwestern Germany, where he toured the “Anti-Anti 2.0” project at the Haus der Geschichte Baden-Württemberg in Stuttgart.
Developed by Jewish and non-Jewish curators, the initiative uses exhibitions, educational programs and historical remembrance to address antisemitism and promote dialogue.
Meltzer “was moved by how this interfaith collaboration demonstrates that different perspectives can strengthen efforts to combat antisemitism through education and remembrance—values central to both American and German society,” the U.S. Mission in Germany stated.
The visit also included meetings focused on strengthening U.S.-German ties. In Stuttgart, Meltzer addressed the American Chamber of Commerce in Germany’s annual membership meeting and met with Baden-Württemberg Minister-President Cem Özdemir, becoming the first international partner to meet with him since his appointment.
