Robert Kraft's Foundation to Combat Antisemitism is Calling Upon All Americans to #StandUpToJewishHate

Monday, March 27, 2023

FOXBORO, Mass., March 27, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- The Foundation to Combat Antisemitism today launched a new, national campaign to mobilize all Americans, and especially non-Jews, to #StandUpToJewishHate by using the blue square emoji as a unifying symbol of support. Jews only make up 2.4% of the American population1 yet are the victims of 55% of religious-based hate crimes2. That startling discrepancy is the cornerstone of this new omnichannel campaign, created through a $25 million investment by Robert K. Kraft and his family, which combines alarming data with humanizing storytelling representing everyday instances of antisemitism to encourage audiences to recognize Jewish hate in order to stand up against it.

Key Points: 
  • Another recent study from the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) found that 85% of Americans believe at least one anti-Jewish trope4.
  • Additionally, the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism has observed an increase in discussion of antisemitism online over the past two years, with the biggest increases in conversation in 2022 related to antisemitic flyers, conspiracy theories, and the Holocaust5.
  • Also, Kraft will appear on "TODAY" to discuss the rise in antisemitism and efforts to combat it.
  • "Our Foundation has tracked a steady rise in antisemitic rhetoric on social media since 2020, with an increase of 14 percent in the past year," said Matthew Berger, Executive Director of the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism.
