i'm glad it happened, but adl and the center for caring digit hate have just been doing some researchanti-semitic activity on twitter in recent weeks since the new management took over. and we found a decrease in the moderation of this kind of content. i could tell you, we report regularly problematic hateful anti-semitic tweets and we're not seeing them go down as the rate that they were just a few months ago. maybe that is because the people aren't there, i don't know. but what i do know is that all of us win, kate, if twitter is a safer space for all users. it should be a public square, not a firing squad. where jews or anyone else feels endangered. >> the reason why you're seeing what you're seeing in the research, the net effect is the same. it is bad. it needs to be addressed and one of the necessary ways to do it sometimes is presenting the evidence, laying it bear for everyone to see which is what you are doing with this research that you guys have put together. so really appreciate it. jonathan, thank you for come on. >> thank you. i appreciate you covering these issues. than

greenblatt and the adl.up the good work and go get them, although i had my doubts about whether things will change. it seems like it is getting worse now. i'd better get off the phone and let you answer. as they accuse many of us jews of being, i like the sound of my own voice. [laughter] guest: thank you for the call and the kind words. even though the incidents have never been higher, as we started tracking it 45 years ago, and as you noted we find antisemitism lacing the questions. the reality is i am incredibly hopeful. america is the most amazing democracy in the history of civilization. it is resilient. it is extraordinary. we have worked through global conflicts, civil war, economic upheaval, social unrest and pandemics. do i think antisemitism will go away? no, i don't. do i think there is a better society equipped to deal with antisemitism? i don't. this country can overcome and has again and again. this issue of political polarization, that is one of the worst issues we have. people on the right ha

the local community, the fbi will definitelyly be there, our attorney general will be there and the adl will be there. what, i mean, is the department of homeland security not being relevant and in the game and not just handing someone an intel piece that you've done the work and push it out and make it available to a wider audience and the chairwoman of the committee with john governmental agency to learn about the proud boys, which we had a real problem with. my district is where they raise happening for the plot to kidnap and kill my governor and it's a real thing for us on the ground but i couldn't feel more strongly and on the beach but when you are being at the table. >> i take your point and what i was trying to say earlier about enhancing our engagement with partners and a large part with the faith-based partners and not a first amendment and the organizations like the ones you cited and the ones we see as mobilization indicators and radicalization indicators and we put a product out and we do try to get out to the table. >> they're embedded with thenc faith-based groups. >> i y

but it includes the local community, the fbi will be there, our attorney general would be there, the adlill deftly be there. is the department of homeland security not part of that conversation? it strikes me that if you want to be relevant and be in the game, it's not just about handing someone a piece of paper or finished intel to show you've done the work but it's to push it out and make it available to a wider audience. as the chairwoman of the committee, the fact that i go to nongovernmental agencies to learn about the crowd boys which we had a real problem with -- my district is where the race happened for the plot to kidnap and kill my governor so it's a real thing for us on the ground the government agencies, i understand it's a sensitive issue but i couldn't feel more strongly about the importance of you all getting left and right limits and being clear about it and coming up to proactively talk to us about this issue. no one wants to go after someone for free speech. when you have had a double the incident of anti-semitism in my state, the question remains -- what is my governm

this is the adl report. 10-year-olds who have experienced harass amount.t, 80% of 10 to 17-year-olds have been harassed. doda. 71%. fortnight, destiny 65% of 10 to 17-year-olds have been harassed. pubg battleground, 65%. >> what is it? say it. >> pug g. player unnobody battleground. >> 65%. kids have been harassed. world of warcraft, i know that one. 64%. call of duty, another one that is ubiquitous, all kids have that one, final fantasy, grand theft auto, these are huge numbers. like 60% to 80% of kids are getting harassed online. and that they know of. do you think they're reporting it to a parent. >> certainly not. people have experienced toxicity and sexism and geno phobia for playing online. and a lot of gamers felt underheard and was wanted industry to do more and we've seen more parental controls. parents don't know about all of these so i would encourage parents who are listen to this to read up to do some extra research on the fact that you could take a voice chat off an xbox or a playstation and you could deactivate how you kids can interfere whe

since then, adl has launched a formidable ground game.aders at the local level, mayors, council members, local municipal leaders can adhere to. and pledge themselves to combat these levels of antisemitism's, bias, and -- at all levels across the country. and the last point that all mention, in january, the natural conference of mayors is coming together in washington, d. c., and it will be working in conjunction with the national conference of mayors to lead this new push for mayors across the country want to be on the front lines, pushing against antisemitism, extremism in their city. >>, so kyle, the push against this, that -- all the resources that are playing put into educate americans are an important point. while that's happening, turning point usa's pointing a big america fest in phoenix. and everyone from kari lake, tucker carlson, to donald trump jr., will be there. so, you can anticipate a little bit of, noise. what should we know about events like that? >> so, so the right-wing has been holding these types of events and trying

over 12 years, the volunteers of the liza-adl search and rescue squad have managed to return home more your name today lisa alirt one of the largest movements in it is more than 30.000 volunteers rescuers searchers coordinators pilots. an example of the fact that volunteering brings together completely different people in life, i am the ceo. i have my own production. uh, i run the enterprise of the moscow areas. well, i combine family work and volunteering. over the past two years, i have traveled almost all of russia in a recognized search for my branches. his squads. there are so far only 64 regions to open a search and rescue unit. it is not so easy for the detachment to have special requirements. ot volunteers must undergo special training. no, nothing complicated, uh, fill in all the regions of the russian federation, she is like a lysolist. first of all, the quality of searches. we are developing slowly. already in several regions now, as well the team of enthusiasts have grown to the point that next year uh is considered uh. uh, part of the isolet detachment catalyst for the acc

this took me out to the home of the adl. you have a decent example of one of the most powerful weapons, law enforcement is certainly an element of it. a country that cherishes its free-speech the incident involving kanye west shows the power of using the public to effectively go after and ensure these individuals that effectively spew hate. the fact that one of his last for many corporate sponsors -- this is where the collaboration comes in. police do what we can just to support public efforts to publicly shame these individuals and let them know the activity will not be tolerated. >> lets cook some questions our viewers have. steve is referring to a report from an organization called cap, a liberal think tank -- they found that per capita murders were 40% higher in states that voted for trump then states that voted for biden. they voted republican every -- in every presidential election in this entry. i don't know if there is any correlation or if you find anything useful or of value in this. >> it is all in blue state-cont

are there any technological solutions that adl is -- top-tier names in the gaming industry.prove the situation. >> one area where companies can stand to invest more is around voice chat moderation. right now, a lot of tools that are available are focused on text. the technology to detect and action content in voice chat is nascent in comparison. i would recommend companies invest in developing the technology to being able to do voice chat moderation at scale. ed: some of the groups in your research and experience target gaming, and in particular online gaming platforms because they think it is an area of vulnerability. in other words, opportunity. >> the fact that moderation is so lax gives an opportunity to people who want to abuse it. either extremists who want to use it for their own ends, or young people who want to use it to explore some of these hateful ideologies. if you look at the report the new zealand government put out in 2019 about the radicalization of the christchurch shooter. he started his journey in online games, testing the waters by experimenting with hat

when you have moments where the lava is being injected into the air forming lava fountains like in the adl, that can be hazardous. you don't want to get too close to that. however, this eruption is actually, at the moment, one at that best case scenarios for a volcanic eruption. because the law but that mauna loa produces is really losing and running. it is not the type of lava that you see with mount saint helens, or lascivious where you have a really sticky lava that creates a big explosion. mauna loa is losing and running and flowing, that means that scientists can get up close and personal to really understand what is going on with volcano. >> that is what is so exciting for volcanologist like yourself to think about. you don't want it to impact communities or cause any harm, but there is something very magnificent, i'm sure, about the study seeing it active after 40 years. so, what kinds of things could you learn about this, seeing the eruption. have distinct is it from its dormant period to have a better understanding of what makes a volcano take and a way to prevent or predict? >> r

something when he wason young about the fact the revolutionary war heroes were dying and worried the adlsere not taught to the next generation as a result so he words wishing every mother could read to every child what the revolution was about and that's what we need more than anything to remember what the nation was founded onso the declaration of independence andee the ideals and the gap between the reality and the ideals just so they are not lost in a metaphorical way that people from the sixties are dying off right now. that's one thing i'm so proud of so many people are in their eighties and we went the decade to live on so we can learn from the mistakes and why it works and when young people cared about the country and active in that as those young people get into those archives and young people thought they were making a difference in 1000 different ways even fighting against the government with the war in vietnam there was that since they were fighting for their country in the civil rights movement was an extraordinary movement were willing to give up their lives for a cause that

ather for adl seas or non adl . >> i want to be clear, the 45% number is one racist attachment for blacks and has been, exce a number of applicants it was determinative for. that's not my, number that's harbors, number in their report. >>counsel, if i could return a moment to drafting the 14th amdment, you said we should ignore the post ratification history but let's pay attention to it for a moment. in the briefs,we had discussion about the friedman's reau that congress set up. howis that consistent or inconsistent with your position. >> i think it's entirely consistent, your honor. the friedman bureau dino draw any racial classifications. it was classifications on the basis of being a former slave for therefugees. the refugees from the te om this four were mostly white. in fact, one objections were made in congress that thisis a racial-based law, the people whose aborted the friedman bureau denied the charge. they didn't say so what, they said it does not race based at all. >> today, a benefit to descendants of slaves would not be race based, correct? >> i think that's incorrect, justic

. >>> and the adl is calling on the fbi to do better collecting these data. 7,000 hate crime incidentsti and threats, all of which are abhorrent and unacceptable, but also physical violence against our jewish brothers and sisters, sometimes deadly. muncy, poway, pittsburgh. and people on the streets simply because they're kieger a kipa. >> you see anti-semitic flyers being posted and leaflets going on in all kinds of neighborhoods. >> well, i think it's important to note that what appears to be anecdotal evidence of increased hate crimes not just based on religion but based on sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, race obviously, national origin. a whole slew of things. there's a lot of anecdotal reasons for thinking about why this is happening. but it is really important to have the hard data. and i think one of the things i would be asking is who is responsible for making sure full compliance goes forward. in order to do your job effectively, in order to know where you want to spend your very limited law enforcement resources to combat the worst hate crimes, you have to have data

and the highest number on record since adl began tracking incidents in 1979.he rise of hate is further documented by congressional testimony from fbi director christopher wray. at a senate judiciary committee hearing in august 2022, director wray stated that the top -- and i'm quoting him -- the top domestic terrorism threat we face continues to be from domestic violent extremists we categorize as racially or ethnically motivated violent extremists, unquote. director wray later highlighted that the number of fbi investigations of suspected domestic violent extremists has more than doubled since the spring of 2020. this continued an upward trend when director wray testified in march of 2021 that investigations had also doubled since 2017 to more than 2,000 investigations and that the number of investigations into white supremacists had tripled. furthermore, on december 12 of this year, the fbi released its annual hate crime report and reported over 7,200 -- let me say that number again -- 7,200 hate crime incidents just in 2021, the third largest number in the

so one of the answers as a private sector -- as agency it adl they do a great job of capturing the statsctor, the business, sector needs to walk away in droves from platforms like, for example, twitter, that seem to be giving license to this. that's the answer, marjorie taylor greene talking not only on republicans gala in new york over the weekend, the event venues need to look at who's coming here to talk, where these people. they are known as fascists, known white nationalists from germany, austria, at that event this weekend. why won't private sector when i'm saying we are not having them at our place, do you hate somewhere else. >> frank, is it too soon to draw any connection between hate crimes that are targeting race, sexual orientation, or gender identity, and attempts to ban books on these very topics? because proponents of the banning books say, oh, we're just doing it to keep people safe. but that's happening, while you are seen up rise in hate crimes, in these specific areas. >> so, let's put this in perspective you, for crying, time and then the new your term future. >> this

just put somebody , but a person that is specifically lgbtq focus in the center for extremism with the adlion league because we can see direct links from what is being said from politicians to what is set online to than what the attks are in our community. so yes, there's a direct line and it's really sad and these politicians understand that people expect lgbtq people. the vast majority of americans accept lgbtq people and they're trying to use us as political ponds to inflate their career, to raise money for their well-being with lies and disinformation. amna: the violence of course is a disturbing trend. sarah kate ellis, ceo and president of glaad. we thank you for joining us to talk about it tonight. >> thank you. ♪ amna: becoming a poet laureate is a coveted role and rare honor. rarer still -- having two laureates in the same family. jeffrey brown went to philadelphia to meet with a poetic family and hear how a mother-son duo works to bring poetry to a wider public. it is part of our arts and culture series, canvas. >> want to between or up or down or through the bloodline. desire is

more than 61% in the first two weeks after his acquisition of twitter, according to findings from the adl, who dined with west and white supremacist, nick fuentes, over the thanksgiving break at mar-a-lago. just weeks after posting a threat to american jews on his own social media site, to get their act together before it's too late. kanye. elon. trump. wherever heard that before? oh yeah, that's right. and that now deleted tweet from the house judiciary republicans. it seems that whenever republican is accused of antisemitism, they follow the same card. the same defense. i can't be antisemitic, i love israel. >> we need to be the best friend israel can have, i don't think we have been as good as friend as we should've been. >> i encourage my colleagues to show solidarity with israel, to support the presidents removal of the united states from unesco. >> i'm proud to stand here with my colleagues, stand with israel, they have the right to defend themselves. from terrorists who are trying to kill them and take their lint. >> yes. they do support israel. and they want you to know that. even

we know that when the adl did a recent survey shows students in high school when taught holocaust education testimony they have more empathy, more tolerance, they're more open minded and that is a fact. so i am hopeful and ptimistic through education we can affect social change. >> beth, eric, i wish we had more time but i thank you both for really important conversation. we appreciate it. >>> free speech and gay rights are on a collision course to the supreme court again. what did we learn where the court is leaning from today's arguments? we got that next. rom argumes?nt we got that next. i promise - as an independent advisor - to put the financial well-being of you and your family first. i promise to serve, not sell. i promise our relationship will be one of partnership and trust. i am a fiduciary, not just some of the time, but all of the time. charles schwab is proud to support the independent financial advisors who are passionately dedicated to helping people achieve their financial goals. visit findyourindependentadvisor.com my most important kitchen tool? my brain. so i choose neuri

the adl expects similar numbers in 2022.s are part of a consistent, steady, upswing in hate over the last six years. there was the deadly unite the right rally in charlottesville in 2016 a trio synagogue shootings in pittsburgh votes left 11 people dead. and thousands of other incidents since then in which jewish people have been targeted across the country. over the past few months, antisemitism has been pulled in the mainstream in ways we haven't seen since world war ii. yay, the rapper formerly known as kanye west has made headlines over notar since october he tweeted, he was going to death con three on jewish people. his consistency remove antisemitic remarks led to the rapper saying he loves hitler on the conspiracy theorists, alec joneses, talk show. that same week ye defended hitler and told jewish people they should, quote, move on from the holocaust and forgive hitler in an interview with the founder of the proud boys, gavin mcguinness. that is just one of the emmy many anti-semitic things he said that month. donald

you have the adl reporting the highest number of anti-semitic incidents last year.the group even started tracking this stuff back in 1979. it's on the rise everywhere. jewish institutions, synagogues, gradeschools. somebody that knows this information very well, somebody at that white house round table today, ceo of the american jewish committee and former congressman ted deutch. take us inside the meeting. how did it go? >> it was a really powerful acknowledgement by the second gentlemen, but really by the white house and this administration, that this is a really challenging moment for the jewish community, that these anti-semitic statements that appear over and over online by social media figures, that -- who praise hitler and nazis and deny the holocaust, that they positive a real threat to the community, and that we need to do something about it, that was the tableaway from today, it was very powerful to hear that coming in the white house, and from the white house. >> you mentioned some of the influencers, people who are openly saying things like -- disgusting

i was actually speaking to all of adl on this topic just last week. this was more broadly.antisemitism and violence come out of this. it was a persistent and present fact. these are numbers that we have seen. about 63% of religious hate crimes overall were motivated by antisemitism. that is targeting a group that makes up 2.4% of american populations. with a community that deserves and desperately needs our support because they are getting hit from all sides, we are trying to address it through a combination of things. one, on the terrorism side, the domestic terrorism doesn't, that is through the joint terrorism task force. to, on the hate crime site, through the civil rights program, we have elevated that to a national threat priority. we have created a domestic terrorism hate crime fusion sale. that. brings together those two programs that i just mentioned. domestic terrorism hate crimes. we can track. to be more proactive. in fact, that fusion cell has already had results. we were already able to bring a proactive hay charge to prevent an intended attack on a synagogue
