Trump's assault on our freedoms and higher education writ large is being done in our names – our fears about antisemitism exploited to push an extreme, anti-democratic agenda. J Street U leaders will be the first to tell you that it’s only making things worse.
We spoke directly with students Lauren Haines at the University of Michigan and Ma’ayan Stutman-Shaw from Brown University, who told us how this moment is transforming the atmosphere on college campuses – how it’s impacting both Jewish and non-Jewish students alike.
J Street President Jeremy Ben-Ami zoomed out to discuss our response as a community and a movement that has to speak out – and how we’re pressing others in the organized Jewish community to take action as well.
