Chuck Schumer Releases Book Warning About Rising Antisemitism in America

The Senate Minority Leader addresses antisemitism on both political sides and faces criticism over his legislative efforts.

  • Schumer's book, 'Antisemitism in America: A Warning,' explores the evolving nature of antisemitism in the U.S. and its presence on both the political left and right.
  • He argues that antisemitism on the left, often tied to criticism of Israel, can be more challenging to address due to its subtle nature and origins within political allies.
  • The book discusses Schumer's personal experiences with antisemitism and traces his journey as the highest-ranking Jewish elected official in U.S. history.
  • Jewish activists plan to protest Schumer's book launch, criticizing his failure to pass the Antisemitism Awareness Act and his response to campus antisemitism.
  • The Antisemitism Awareness Act, which Schumer supported, remains stalled due to disagreements over its implementation and concerns about free speech.
