As you may or may not have heard by now, there have been a few antisemitic and racist hate crimes committed in Ithaca.
On behalf of the Student Board of Hillel at Ithaca College, we would like to extend our support to our entire community. As students, we know this is a scary and overwhelming time in more ways than one, and we want to be a resource. We are proud to stand together as a Jewish community and we hope to find strength as we move forward together.
In response to the rise in antisemitic and racist activity in Ithaca, NY, the Hillel student board and the religious leaders of the Ithaca community stand together to firmly denounce hatred. Hate. Has. No. Home. Here.
In solidarity, religious leaders from all across Ithaca came together to denounce hatred and make a commitment to eradicating silence around hatred and bigotry. We created a video to lift up their voices.

We are so grateful for the allyship from all of the religious communities in Ithaca
