Decoding Anti-Semitism in today’s social media

Workshop with Professor Alexandra Minna Stern on Decoding Anti-Semitism in today’s social media, and how it connects to Holocaust memory (or attempted erasure among the far right). RSVP Link

Wednesday, March 10th, at 6:30PM

  • Although growing more brazen in recent years, contemporary White Nationalism exerts its influence in ways that can escape the notice of the general public, communicating through underground internet subcultures and developing its own coded dialect. The threat this movement poses will continue well into the future.
  • This one hour Zoom workshop will offer guidance on how to decode the racist and Anti-Semitic messaging of White Supremacist and Alt-Right networks, and on how to decipher such messaging. She will give us an overview of coded language and images we might see on Twitter and other social media that have anti-semitism underlying them, and relate it to Holocaust memory / denial.
