RUINING THE GAME: ANTISEMITISM IN SPORTS

Antisemitism in sports follows similar patterns as it manifests in other areas of society, with the use of historical myths and tropes to justify exclusion or oppression of Jews in the world of sports or their fans.

In this webinar, we will discuss the intersection between sports and antisemitism in today’s world.

We will also offer practical implementation tools related to ADL Education’s programs, online learning, and resources as well as specific educational resources to turn this intersection into a learning opportunity for students to learn about the Jewish people, antisemitism, and the role the sporting world can play in combatting antisemitism.

Our webinars are designed to increase participants’ knowledge of Holocaust history, explore and access classroom-ready content, and support instructional practice to promote student learning and understanding of this complex history and its lasting effect on the world.

This professional learning experience is part of the Shine a Light on Antisemitism webinar series for educators.
