A social media blitz launched this month by the David Horowitz Freedom Center is targeting “Jew-hating” academic departments and centers at ten prestigious American universities which have used university resources to vilify the Jewish people and their homeland of Israel in direct violation of federal Civil Rights law.
The Freedom Center’s social media campaign will place eye-catching graphics and posters exposing each university’s complicity in promoting Jew hatred directly into the Facebook and Instagram feeds of individuals with a connection to each campus.
“For its blatant Jew-hatred, promotion of terrorist violence against Israel, and elevation of Hamas propaganda to the realm of scholarly discourse, Columbia’s Center for Palestine Studies clearly belongs among the top Jew-hating academic departments in America,” reads the text on one of the posts.
“For its politicized use of official university resources to promote anti-Semitism and glorify Hamas, the University of Minnesota Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies belongs on the list of the worst Jew-hating academic departments in America,” states another.
Posters created for the campaign charge that these university departments are “Standing with Hamas” and “Complicit in Jew Hatred,” and call on the lead administrators of each university to launch an immediate investigation to determine whether the Title VI rights of Jewish students have been violated by the academic departments and centers under their auspices.
Each post links to a detailed report documenting the Jew-hatred at the targeted university and department.
The ten campuses and academic departments targeted are:
#1: San Francisco State University, College of Ethnic Studies
#2: University of California-Santa Cruz, Critical Race and Ethnic Studies Department
#3: Columbia University, Center for Palestine Studies
#4: University of Pennsylvania, Middle East Center
#5: University of Minnesota, Department of Gender, Women, and Sexuality Studies
#6: University of North Carolina-Chapel Hill, Center for Middle East and Islamic Studies
#7: University of Colorado-Boulder, Ethnic Studies Department
#8: University of Maryland-College Park, Harriet Tubman Department of Women, Gender, and Sexuality Studies
#9: University of Illinois-Urbana Champaign, Department of Latina/Latino Studies
