Mizrahi Stories 
CAMERA on Campus is proud to announce the launch of Mizrahi Stories, a month-long campaign during November—Mizrahi Heritage Month, which recognizes the culture of Jewish communities from North Africa and the Middle East. To tell those stories, we have planned a series of initiatives to educate students about the history of Mizrahi Jewish communities including digital advocacy, student-led events on university campuses, tabling, and displays on college grounds, all highlighting important Mizrahi experiences. The campaign also features coverage of five additional regions this year; Yemen, Libya, Afghanistan, Tunisia, and the Caucuses. “The rich and beautiful culture of Israel would not be what it is today without Mizrahi Jews. Comprising half of the Jewish population in Israel, they have enriched and defined all domains of Israeli culture, most notably music, cuisine, research, politics, and religious practice. Without Mizrahi Jews and their heritage, it would be impossible to understand Israel today. As a Mizrahi Jew, I am proud to be a part of CAMERA’s Mizrahi Stories initiative!” said Avner Yeshurun, 2021-2022 CAMERA fellow at the University of Miami. To read the full press release, follow JNS. To take part in the campaign, please make sure to follow CAMERAonCampus on Instagram, Facebook, and Twitter to share suggested content with the #MizrahiStories.

“The Blue and White Elephant in the Room”
In the Times of Israel, CAMERA’s Israel Campus Advisor, Tom Yohay, covered the Sunshine Movement’s DC chapter’s egregious, antisemitic refusal to participate in a rally with several Jewish organizations due to their support for Israel and Zionism. Though they were condemned by the national movement for their behavior, the chapter’s leaders were not reprimanded specifically for their fallacious remarks on Israel and were pardoned after apologizing only for pointing out the Jewish organizations who support Israel and not others.

Sally Rooney is another Example of anti-Israel Hate within Ireland
“Rooney states that she would like to see a Hebrew translation of her latest work if it can comply with the ‘BDS movement’s institutional boycott guidelines.’ In other words, there is now a Palestinian veto over her relations with Jews and the Jewish state.” Click here to continue reading the analysis of Sally Rooney’s refusal to publish her book in Hebrew by CAMERA’s UK Campus Associate, Daniel O’Dowd. Through social media, CAMERA on Campus is identifying some of the most common rhetoric put out by anti-Israel activists, such as claiming that the BDS movement is a peaceful, political movement against Israeli policies, and using our platforms to educate on its meaning and historical context as well as identifying best practices on how best to respond.

Exclusive CAMERA Fellowship Event with Jonathan Elkoury
Throughout the academic school year, CAMERA will be providing exclusive webinars for CAMERA Fellows, allowing them to engage in in-depth conversations with some of the most renowned scholars on Israel and the Arab-Israeli conflict. The 2021-2022 CAMERA Fellowship cohort had an intimate conversation with Jonathan Elkhoury. Since Jonathan’s father was part of the South Lebanese Army (SLA), he and his whole family were seen as enemies to Hezbollah and their lives were in danger. In 2000, Israel rescued thousands of Lebanese and brought them to live in Israel, including Jonathan and his family. Jonathan spoke with the CAMERA Fellows about growing up in Israel as part of the minority population and discussed the current precarious situation in Lebanon.

These speakers included: Hen Mazzig, Bassem Eid, and Manashe Khaimov. In addition to our guest speakers, CAMERA’s Campus Advisors led workshops for mechinot in Israel, participated in a panel discussion for a conference hosted by the pro-Israel organization, Passages, and visited universities, meeting with students and campus professionals alike across Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas, and Washington.

#ThisIsWhatAZionistLooksLike
“My relationship with Zionism is as connected to my life as breathing. I have been vocally supportive of Israel since I was around two years old, so it truly is second nature to me. I am empowered to be a Zionist because of my ancestry in the land of Israel and our deep connection to it. I want to use this passion to educate others about Israel and Zionism.” Thanks, @saedye_hilf!
“This Is What A Zionist Looks Like” is a CAMERA on Campus Instagram project that aims to show the world that Zionists come from diverse backgrounds and have diverse interests. We showcase different Zionists, their stories, their interests, and their beliefs. To be featured in our  #ThisIsWhatAZionistLooksLike campaign, please follow this link.
