Confronting Foreign Antisemitic Influence in America
Join us for a timely briefing on the rise of antisemitic and anti-Zionist activity in the U.S.—particularly on college campuses—and how this hatred is being fueled by foreign actors. Led by the Simon Wiesenthal Center’s Vlad Khaykin, this important discussion will reveal how outside forces are spreading antisemitic and anti-Zionist propaganda to undermine American democracy and erode our society.
Featured Speaker: Vlad Khaykin
Vlad Khaykin is the Executive Vice President of Social Impact and Partnerships, North America for the Simon Wiesenthal Center. In his role, Vlad spearheads policy changes that reduce acts of antisemitism and hatred, promote positive behavior toward Jews and other persecuted communities, and increase public support for the State of Israel. Previously, Vlad led advocacy efforts for ADL, AJC, and JCRC of Boston. He is a former refugee from state-sponsored antisemitism in the Soviet Union and a grandson of Holocaust survivors.
