OUR COMMUNITY stands strong. Hundreds of New Yorkers gathered on Manhattan’s Upper East Side to stand against hate after two men were stabbed in a hate-motivated attack.
We will not stay silent. We will continue to stand together, support one another, and hold our heads high as we work toward a safer future for all.
There is no tolerance for antisemitism. There is no place for hate.
Thank you for always showing up and standing up for what is right, together.

THISPAST WEEK IAC Magen teens, in collaboration with Kimama Half Moon, held a day of resilience and antisemitism-fighting training, focused on the importance of civic engagement from a young age and empowering the next generation to be more involved.
Participants learned Krav Maga, took part in and solved the IAC's "Fighting Antisemitism" escape room, engaged in group discussions, and created social media marketing campaigns aimed at their peers and sharing positive messaging about Israel.
These activities, among many others aim to help the next generation of Jewish and Israeli-American teens navigate today's complexities with resilience and confidence. By providing practical tools and a deep sense of belonging, inspiring them to embrace their identity and celebrate who they are with pride while helped strengthening their knowledge, skills, and confidence.
The Focus Project is an IAC Magen collaborator and we are excited to share their content and material with you. The Focus Project develops and distributes news, background, history and weekly talking points on timely issues to inform individuals and organizations about issues affecting the American Jewish community and Israel, and help readers speak with more consistency and clarity. The editions also provide potential responses for addressing incidents of antisemitism and anti-Zionism. With input from a spectrum of major American Jewish organizations, the focus on that which unites us, rising above political and individual agendas.
IAC Magen turns concern into readiness. It trains adults and teens. It builds local teams. It connects communities across the country so none of us stand alone. Resilience does not happen by accident. It happens when people step forward.
If you believe our community deserves to be strong, organized, and prepared, this is your moment.
