Program Description
Today, more than 60 years after the Holocaust, many parts of the world are experiencing a dramatic resurgence of anti-Semitism. Reports from western watch groups indicate a drastic increase in anti-Semitic incidents since the year 2000. Meanwhile, in a growing number of Arab and Islamic communities, there is an alarming rise in anti-Semitic rhetoric in the political and public arenas, especially in mainstream media. In the context of its historical, religious and political underpinnings, this documentary examines how and why anti-Semitism continues to flourish today. Hosted by Judy Woodruff.
