After a week filled with virtual panels and a Yom After a week filled with virtual panels and a Yom Hashoah Holocaust Remembrance prayer service, today marks the final day of Antisemitism Awareness Week.

In light of the recent increase in antisemitism, the Jewish Club at Notre Dame organized this event to both engage and educate the community about combatting this type of hatred.

On Wednesday, Notre Dame’s student senate unanimously voted to pass Resolution SS 2021-37, which calls upon the University to adopt the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance’s (IHRA) non-legally binding working definition of antisemitism — one that has been embraced by nations, international organizations and universities across the world.

“One of the purposes of the working definition is that it’s hard to combat something if you can’t name it, or understand what it is and define it,” said Jewish Club president junior Bella Niforatos about the importance of adopting IHRA’s definition.

After Tuesday’s incident — where a group of non-ND affiliated people zoom-bombed one of the presentations — Jewish Club secretary sophomore Blake Ziegler said the club received an outpour of support from different members of the community. To create a more inclusive space, he said Notre Dame should actively embrace its Jewish members.

“The best way the Notre Dame community can show solidarity with the Jewish community is honestly just engagement, education, learning more about Judaism, engaging your Jewish friends and family, being open to listening to them and their concerns and addressing them,” he said.

After this week, Niforatos said there is one thing the Notre Dame community should remember: “If you have a voice, then you should use it.”

Four years ago, junior Anna Rask traveled to the U Four years ago, junior Anna Rask traveled to the US-Mexico border as a volunteer for Kino Border Initiative. The conversations she had with immigrants not only astounded her, but also inspired her to become an immigration advocate, she said. 
.
“I learned why they're here, why they're trying to come to the US and what they faced along the way -- just the horrible things that people have gone through -- and then seeing how politicians treat these people or how the actual border patrol treat people, it was shocking,” she said. “I was like ‘I can't let this stay on, I need to do whatever I can as an individual to help these kinds of people get a better life whenever I can contribute.”

Herself the grand-daughter of a Lebanese immigrant, Rask is now aiming to shed light on this issue as vice president of Notre Dame’s Student Coalition for Immmigration Advocacy (SCIA). Today’s #TriCampusTuesday features this group’s ongoing initiative: Immigration Week.
.
Throughout the week, the tri-campus community will have the opportunity to “educate, advocate and celebrate” immigration through different activities. On Monday, participants shared a template highlighting why they stood for immigration on their social media platforms. Today, community members could take part in “Trivia Tuesday.” On Wednesday, SCIA will host a panel about strengthening advocacy on campus at 4 p.m. Thursday will include a collection of drawstring bags that will be donated to migrants leaving detention centers. Finally, Friday will feature a call-in campaign, through which participants will call on their peers to demand immigration advocacy from congressional leaders.
