Rising Campus Antisemitism: Unveiling the Dark Reality
Harvard students who signed an open letter blaming Israel for the violence in the recent conflict with Hamas have faced severe backlash, including being doxxed and having their personal information posted online. A conservative group even hired a billboard truck to display their names and photos, while critics created do-not-hire lists. The incident has sparked a debate about free speech on campus and the influence of outside groups and donors. Some argue that the pressure is stifling speech, while others believe that employers have the right to choose not to hire individuals with certain views. The controversy has further divided an already fragile campus community.
