JUSTICE - No. 72

36 No. 72 JUSTICE To reduce levels of antisemitism and hate, and restrengthen our democratic social fabric, Americans must relearn trust. Fortunately, 92% of U.S. adults say antisemitism affects society as a whole and everyone is responsible for combating it.61 The U.S. National Strategy echoes this sentiment, closing with the reminder that our country’s culture of pluralism is one of our most cherished assets. We were founded on the idea that our whole is stronger than the sum of our parts.… This strategy represents a detailed plan to counter antisemitism in America as well as a foundation to tackle other forms of hate in our society, and to protect our greatest strength: our democracy.62 n Holly Huffnagle serves as the U.S. Director for Combating Antisemitism at American Jewish Committee (AJC), spearheading the agency’s response to antisemitism in the United States and its efforts to better protect the Jewish community. On behalf of AJC, she participated in the White House’s civil society listening sessions to help develop the U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism in 2023. Previously, Huffnagle served as the policy advisor to the Special Envoy to Monitor and Combat Antisemitism at the U.S. Department of State and as a researcher in the Mandel Center of Advanced Holocaust Studies at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C. She received her master’s degree from Georgetown University where she focused on 20th century Polish history and Jewish-Muslim relations before, during, and after the Holocaust. She has appeared on media outlets ranging from CNN, NBC, Fox and ABC, and has published articles in Times of Israel, Fox News, and other U.S. publications. 61. Supra note 56. 62.
