Boston, Massachusetts In honor of Mizrahi Heritage Month, CAMERA on Campus is thrilled to announce the start of the fourth installment of “Mizrahi Stories,” a human rights campaign dedicated to amplifying the voices of the Jews hailing from North Africa and the Middle East. These communities faced extraordinary challenges during...
University Students Have Lost Their Morality
Basic morality seems to have gone from the world — or at least the university campus. In the aftermath of the horrific and awful attacks on Oct. 7, Shmini Atzeres, the response of most people was to express shock and outrage at the atrocities committed by Hamas. According to an...
Perspective: Now is not a time to project hate on campus
Jewish college students are dealing with attacks on Israel and harassment on their campuses. When will it stop? It feels odd — wrong, even — that my family and friends scattered across Israel are asking me if I’m okay and safe. But I’m not, and nor are many of my...

In this hideous crime against humanity, 1,400 were killed, over...
Didn’t you Know? Hamas is on a Humanitarian Mission
The common theme among “the river to the sea crowd” is that Palestine must be free of all Jews between the river Jordan and the Mediterranean Sea. They are not protesting for a free democratic society but for a land free of the presence of the Jewish people. This is...
Antisemites Have Shown Their True Colors
When I was a child and first learned about the Holocaust, what shocked me most was not so much the atrocities but mostly the silence around the world as Jews were rounded up and slaughtered. This week, something even more shocking happened. Jews were rounded up and slaughtered, and “social...
