The two-day event featured 25 panels with over 100 guest speakers, including Devorah Halberstam, chair of the NYPD Hate Crimes Review Panel, Rabbi Moshe
Nearly 4,000 delegates from around the world gathered for the Anti-Defamation League’s “Never is Now” summit at the Javits Center in Manhattan on March 6 and 7 to discuss and examine strategies to end antisemitism, history’s oldest hatred.
“Unfortunately, I think it’s actually gotten worse,” Halberstam said, emphasizing that silence wasn’t an option. Hauer detailed that Orthodox Jews follow the Halakha, where they pray three times a day and observe the laws of Shabbat, which forbids the use of cars on Saturdays, among other laws. Feiner shared comments made by Rockland County politicians. One, she said, described non-Orthodox Jews as “normal” Jews, while the other said Orthodox women were in abusive marriages and that there was “no other use for them than to have babies.”
ther communities, she noted, such as religious Muslims, also live “within themselves, not because they are necessarily insular.” “For us to run away from who we are is not the way we’re going to get rid of antisemitism,” Halberstam said. “They’re going to find us. They always seem to find us.” “If it’s in line with what we’ve been seeing, it’s going to be somewhere around double what we had the year before. And the year before was the highest year on record we’ve ever encountered. So it’s a tough moment,” Richman said.“It’s because an incident may happen to them or they may witness it, but they may not necessarily think that it rises to a level to report,” Scheinbach said. “Or maybe they think, ‘Oh, I’ll report this later,’ and then they forget.
