Faculty Against Antisemitism Movement

Faculty Against Antisemitism Movement (FAAM) is a network of academics who stand against antisemitism on campus — and demand that university leaders join them.

Introducing the Center for Jewish Legal Studies, supported by @TheAENetwork and launched by Professors @Rona_Kaufman_ and Andrea Martin. The Center will advance scholarship on Jewish civil rights — an area often overlooked in legal academia.

⚠️ A special issue of @APA “American Psychologist” includes @TheAENetwork-funded research that points to a predictive, substantial relationship between antisemitism and anti-Israel hostility. Read the article co-authored by @RutgersU Prof. Kent Harber. ➡️ https://t.co/BZdNqMhIbn

The Pioneering Israeli Science Conference @scienceabroad in NYC featured 112 posters from Israeli postdocs and grad students.
We proudly sponsored two Best Presentation awards for Columbia postdocs:

“You start to think of yourself more as a link in a chain.” 🔗

Professor Nicholas Lemann of @Columbia reflects on how Jewish identity has a way of returning and deepening with age, as we think less about personal achievement and more about peoplehood and legacy.

What do you do if a student reports an antisemitic social media post — written by a classmate? Matt Nosanchuk, Associate Dean at @gwlaw, shares how faculty can help their students navigate antisemitism online and use campus resources.

The Lemann story charts a series of generational shifts and cycles, including the ebbs and flows of Jewish observance and a journey that takes his family south, north, and then south again as they build their lives in America.

An important read on Jewish identity and reclaiming the right to define our lived experiences as Jews. ➡️ Professor Audrey Thacker, who chairs Matadors Against Antisemitism at @csunorthridge, puts a frustrating reality into words:

[Faculty Against Antisemitism Movement @_FAAM]

“It’s no wonder that in the recent, choking chaos of antisemitism that has erupted so forcefully, American Jews are only very gingerly laying claim to or even defining their position as Jews.”

[Faculty Against Antisemitism Movement @_FAAM]

📘 @DePaulU Professor @robertakwall is ready to publish her next book: “Polarized: Why American Jews are Divided and What to Do About It.” The book explores growing fractures within the American Jewish community and offers a path forward.

She was invited as a special guest of @yechielleiter, Israel’s ambassador to the United States, to a celebration at the Israeli Embassy in D.C. 🇮🇱

Who marched down Fifth Avenue in support of Jewish identity and peoplehood at the Israel Day Parade? These #FAAM faculty and allies!

[Faculty Against Antisemitism Movement @_FAAM]

👏 Resolution 2026-1 was rejected! Jewish members of @MLAnews spoke out and voted against this divisive proposal, which inserted unsubstantiated accusations against Israel and alienated Jewish scholars under the guise of academic values.

A webinar for higher ed administrators:

Hosted by @TheAENetwork in partnership with the @HolocaustMuseum, this session is an opportunity to hear testimony from a Holocaust survivor and learn how to navigate antisemitic incidents on campus. ➡️ https://t.co/eYkv6tOyKC

With virulently biased anti-Israel narratives entrenched across many disciplines, to the exclusion of all other perspectives, 50+ faculty marched for academic integrity and as loud, proud Zionists in support of each other and their Jewish students. What an incredible show of strength. 💙

50,000+ marching down Fifth Avenue. 🇮🇱 And our faculty were among them!

[Faculty Against Antisemitism Movement @_FAAM]

They came from across the five boroughs of New York City and even and as far away as California, Utah, and Oregon for the Israel Day Parade, a historic celebration of Jewish identity and peoplehood.

Universities have been misapplying institutional neutrality policies, and as a consequence, silencing the very expression these policies were meant to protect. This pattern, writes @mark_yudof of @TheAENetwork, can only be corrected with clear guidelines.https://t.co/5kGmRCMTLc
