As we saw in yesterday's march, Federations & JCRCs are effective ways for American #Jews to respond to issues of utmost local & national importance. IAN is proud of our work training such professionals, enhancing their ability to counter Israel delegitimization and #antisemitism

A large part of our efforts to counter the delegitimization of #Israel and #antisemitism consists of building bridges with communities targeted by anti-Israel activists. These programs often result in profound moments that help foster peace and empathy. #ShabbatShalom

College students and professors who associate with #Israel or #Israelis are having their #academicfreedom attacked. Watch these stories of how these individuals were affected. youtu.be/82O6cDTvDdQ

#Antisemitism is on the rise. While it's most painfully manifested in violence, it also permeates the public consciousness in more subtle ways. These tactics — many of which are used by the BDS movement — can be difficult to identify. We're here to help: israelactionnetwork.org/anti…

Happy #PrideMonth to those in #Israel and around the world!

The Sri Lankan flag illuminated on the Tel Aviv Municipality building — Israel standing in solidarity with Sri Lanka. Our hearts go out to all those affected.

Happy #Passover! Both the #Exodus and modern #Zionism honor a national liberation movement. As the holiday begins, we remember Operation Magic Carpet, which brought 50,000 #Yemenite #Jews back to their historical homeland.

Happy #Purim! Queen Esther is one of the strongest women in the Jewish canon, and, perhaps, set the standard for the many strong and accomplished women in Israeli society. #WomensHistoryMonth

Breaking news: The U.S. Senate just passed S.1, taking a bipartisan stand against #BDS. IAN is proud to have played a part in this, working with our local Federations and JCRC allies. Read our statement: bit.ly/2RHli4u #Israel

Dr. King inspired a generation and helped transform a nation. Here at IAN, we like to think we carry a little bit of his sprit in our work - whether that’s bringing #Jewish people and African Americans together or Jewish Israelis and Palestinians. #MLK

IAN staff recently engaged several communities on #BDS-related issues. Here is Deputy Director Stephanie Hausner sharing the latest #BDS trends at an event hosted by @JewishMiami and @ADL_National. Panelists from @AIPAC ,@AEPi, and @David_Project were part of the conversation.

IAN's Stephanie Hausner briefed an amazing group of leading women philanthropists this morning for a breakfast at the International Lion of Judah Conference. Participants went beyond the headlines to learn how they can help counter new BDS tactics. #ILOJC #WomenRepairTheWorld

IAN's Zach Schaffer at @Jewish_Omaha, helping high school students find their own personal #Israel narratives. Providing strategy and guidance to local #Jewish Federations is a big part of what we do.

Today is #HumanRightsDay. Tel Aviv parades marking the occasion have included many different community leaders, including feminists, Arabs, Bedouin, LGBTQ advocates, political asylees and more. All a testament to #Israel's vibrant democracy! photo credit: Uri Lenz/Flash90
