March 23, 2023

The number of antisemitic incidents in the United States last year was the highest since the Anti-Defamation League began keeping track in 1979, the Jewish advocacy group announced on Thursday. “We’re in a new era for antisemitism,” said Brian Levin, the director of the Center for the Study of Hate and Extremism at California State University, San Bernardino, which monitors hate crimes in American cities. “We’re now seeing Jews becoming a default target.”

Mr. Levin’s organization, which is unaffiliated with the A.D.L., released its own report on Tuesday revealing that religion-based hate crimes in select major American cities rose 27 percent last year, with a majority of incidents targeting Jews. Hate crimes against Jewish people made up 78 percent of the religion-based crimes tracked by Mr. Levin’s organization, and the number rose by more than a quarter from the previous year.
