Statement on Recent Violence Targeting Asian American and Pacific Islander Communities
The Department of Judaic Studies at Brooklyn College condemns the recent violence around the country that has targeted people of the Asian American and Pacific Islander communities, and we stand in solidarity with our AAPI fellow Americans and immigrants. Hatred and bigotry have no place in America. Those of us in the field of Jewish history know all too well how prejudice and bigotry can escalate quickly and how important it is for those not being targeted to stand with those who are. Never again means never again for anyone.
