School District Document Redefines Antisemitism to Justify Pro-Palestine Movement

A California school district handed out a document that tried to redefine antisemitism to justify the pro-Palestine movement.

From the Man of Steele Substack (who profiled the same district in his documentary Killing America):

When I read through the document it became clear that antisemitism was being redefined in order to fit into the oppressor-oppressed framework that serves the liberation ideology. For those who don’t know, this ideology reduces Jews to their stereotypical white skin, placing them on the oppressor side along with white supremacists. This raises the obvious question: if Jews are the oppressors under this framework then how can they also be victims here, especially of antisemitism?

When one gets past all the academic jargon the answer is quite clear: they can’t.

The main concern of the authors behind the document was not understanding or preventing antisemitism — it was redefining it to preserve the “moral legitimacy” of the pro-Palestinian movement. In “Killing America” we documented how teacher Chloe Gentile-Montgomery told outright lies in the classroom — the UN declaring Israel illegal, that Hamas attacked soldiers, and that Israel stole land — and now we have educators seeking indoctrinate young minds that are largely Holocaust-illiterate with this ideological revision of antisemitism.

Why is this wealthy district that is supposedly committed to academic excellence allowing in such a biased organization?

You can also read about PARCEO, the organization behind this document, here.

Below are a few highlights from the document along with some thoughts:

The need for a curriculum on antisemitism within a pedagogic framework of collective liberation resonated as particularly important for this moment as rising white nationalist violence targets many of our communities, including Jews, Muslims, Black people, immigrant communities, trans and queer people, among others. The misuse of antisemitism and charges of antisemitism repeatedly directed at those fighting for justice for the Palestinian people add another layer of urgency to this project.

On one hand, the authors say Jews can be victims of this whiteness. On the other hand, the authors clearly imply that the Palestinian victimization trumps everything, placing the Jews back on the side of whiteness. It seems the only good Jew here is one who agrees with the authors’ definition of antisemitism.
