Hate Crimes
This doesn't even mention the anti-semetic attack on the subway last week....
Nor the attack in the deli in Jersey City, just across the river from NYC.

@emacsen I don't understand antisemitism. It perplexes me.

I strongly recommend the series The Story of the Jews. It's both a book and a TV series:
https://www.pbs.org/wnet/story-jews/
While it doesn't describe everything, it covers the history of Jewish persecution better than any other series I'm aware of.
One of the common themes in the history of persecution of Jews is the question of what I'll call "loyalty tests". Non-Jews are always concerned with who Jews are loyal to, and they invent ways to imagine Jews aren't loyal to them.
