MAKING EVERY DAY MATTER

Anti-Defamation League Annual Report 2013

OUR LEADERSHIP MAKES EVERY DAY MATTERThe generous support provided by ADL’s Centennial Committee and our outstanding lay leadership makes our work possible. Many of them are shown below during the ADL Centennial Mission to Israel in November 2013, where they met with Israeli President Shimon Peres, center, and many other high-level members of government.

Making Every Day Matter 1

What a year it was for us at ADL celebrating our Centennial!

Our Imagine a World Without Hate video, conveying in a powerful way the consequences of hate, went viral and was watched by over a million viewers.

President Obama, Vice President Biden and other American officials testified to ADL’s great contributions to American society over the last century. And Broadway honored us by revisiting the melodies of the stage that spoke to ADL’s lifetime fight against hate and anti-Semitism.

Our celebration was, of course, about the past, but it also was about the future. There are big challenges ahead: global anti-Semitism is spreading, incivility in our politics is undermining the workings of democracy and cyberhate is a growing threat. But the fact that we have succeeded in the past—together with coalition partners and through our voice, our education programs and our grassroots work around the country—all bode well for future success.

The connection between the past and the future was what this Centennial year was about. Our exciting, relevant and remarkable past gives us reason to believe that our future will be equally exciting, relevant and remarkable.

STANDING UP FOR OURSELVES


‘ADL has been at the forefront of the global struggle against anti-Semitism and racism.’ –Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu


FIGHTING GLOBAL ANTI-SEMITISM/CASE STUDIES

While the Hungarian Jewish community has flourished in the last 5–10 years, the phenomenon of political anti-Semitism is a significant national issue—especially since the parliamentary success of a neo-Nazi party. We have been honored to work with ADL, giving us the opportunity to cooperate with and learn from the most important organization fighting anti-Semitism in the world. In 2013, we successfully closed down the primary Hungarian neo-Nazi portal on Facebook. Our most recent field of cooperation is the program on hate crimes and the Jewish community in the curricula of national law-enforcement colleges and graduate schools.

There is palpable escalation in anti-Semitic and anti-Muslim hatred triggered to an extent by the influx of 10,000 refugees and other immigrants from the Middle East (Syria). Throughout 2013, Shalom Organization of Jews in Bulgaria (OJB Shalom) maintained continuous relations with ADL. We collaborated in the training of experts from the Bulgarian Jewish community in fighting anti-Semitism and racism, and received expert assistance from ADL in planning and presenting important events. Our relationship with ADL also helped us secure support from the U.S. government and other governments.

The French government remained very active against all forms of anti-Semitism. But, paradoxically, anti-Semitism perceived in French society increased in 2013 because of public debates around ancestral Jewish rituals such as circumcision or animal slaughter. At the end of the year, the ‘quenelle,’ a Nazi-like salute initiated by anti-Semitic comedian Dieudonné M’bala M’bala and far-right ideologue Alain Soral, was widespread. Photos of M’bala M’bala sympathizers making this gesture in front of Jewish sites and Shoah memorials were posted on the Internet. Some of M’bala M’bala’s videos were viewed more than 3 million times. In France, anti-Semitic content is forbidden by law. We look forward to continuing our work with ADL and Internet companies to combat online anti-Semitism.

WHEN ISRAEL ISTHE TARGET/CAMPUS

Campus advocacy isolating Israel ratcheted up in 2013. Student senates at nearly a dozen universities considered resolutions calling for divestment from multinational companies doing business with Israel. More academic departments sponsored anti-Israel programming. Additionally, the Association for Asian American Studies and the American Studies Association both approved resolutions calling for academic boycotts against Israeli institutions.

ADL works with high-level campus administrators nationwide to counter such activity. Mark Yudof, now a professor of law at UC Berkeley School of Law, had this to say about the tensions he encountered during his tenure as president of the University of California from 2008 to September 2013:

In general, Jewish students are comfortable on the 10 campuses of the University of California, and have a high level of belonging. They are among the most satisfied students at UC.

Clearly, though, during events such as Israeli Apartheid Week, which is terribly offensive to Jewish students—with the pseudo-roadblocks and inflammatory speakers—Jewish students do feel uncomfortable. Sometimes the rhetoric gets out of hand. A student expressing a

critical viewpoint on Israel, a legitimate policy debate, might lapse into language such as, “You Jews don’t understand my position because Jews control the banks and the newspapers”—the old canards. But what you can’t do legally or ethically is close down speech you don’t like. Rejoinder and not censorship is the better response.

When I had a quandary about something like this, in addition to meeting with Muslim student leaders and Hillels and consulting with other organizations, I would call [ADL Civil Rights Director] Deborah Lauter or [ADL National Director] Abraham Foxman informally on how to proceed. I trusted them and got good, confidential tactical advice. I also recommended that the UC chancellors consult with ADL.

ADL has a lot of experience with this sort of thing. They understood the free speech issues and what we could do positively. When I created a climate committee to deal with inclusiveness at UC, one of the people I appointed to it was Richard D. Barton, an ADL lay leader from San Diego. He’s made an outstanding contribution. The committee, composed of representatives of diverse groups, collaborated on a campus climate survey undertaken by the UC President’s Office that is looking broadly at discrimination and inclusion on campus.

THE EXTREMISTS NEXT DOOR

A major Islamic extremist group in the U.S. called Revolution Muslim effectively went out of business in October when one of its leaders pleaded guilty to using the group’s Web site to threaten Jews.

ADL’s intelligence-gathering capabilities and expertise helped law enforcement obtain this guilty plea and put two other members of Revolution Muslim in prison. Mitchell D. Silber, who was at the time the director of intelligence analysis with the New York Police Department’s Intelligence Division and is now executive managing director of the business intelligence consulting firm K2, describes ADL’s role:

Revolution Muslim was a proponent of Al Qaeda ideology in the U.S. It was able to bring Al Qaeda messages legitimizing violence against

American and specifically Jewish targets to an English-language audience and make them more accessible to home-grown extremists.

One of the group’s leaders, Yousef Al-Khattab, used the Revolution Muslim Web site to justify violence against specific Jewish institutions and synagogues in the New York area. He posted a video on the group’s Web site that named leaders of Jewish Federations in the

U.S., gave directions to specific facilities and linked to instructions on how to use explosive devices against them. He said, “Make every attempt to reach these people and teach them the message of Islam.”

Revolution Muslim was by far the most influential Islamic extremist group in the U.S., inspiring a range of domestic extremists and attempted terrorists.

The NYPD was aware of Revolution Muslim, but it was very helpful to have another set of eyes watching the group online—and capturing evidence of the explicit threats that appeared on its Web site. ADL was very comprehensive in documenting the threats, which made it much easier for law enforcement to build its case against the individuals involved.

ADL has a deep and savvy understanding of the nature of domestic extremism. It’s able to detect and understand threats as they’re beginning to materialize, and to provide the actionable intelligence needed to build a prosecutorial case.

As a result of work by the NYPD, the federal authorities and ADL, Revolution Muslim is no longer in existence.


STANDING UP FOR ALL


‘You have become the conscience of this country.‘

–U.S. Vice President Joseph Biden Jr.


PRESSING FOR ACTION ON IMMIGRATION REFORM

ADL believes that our current immigration system is broken and unfair. In February 2013, ADL provided testimony to the Senate Judiciary Committee explaining why the country urgently needs immigration reform that creates a pathway to citizenship, eliminates immigration enforcement by local law enforcement, and ensures that reform efforts reflect our values as a nation of immigrants. We welcomed Senate passage of an important immigration reform bill in June. Then we organized a social media campaign mobilizing advocates to urge the House of Representatives to take similar action. As the year ended, ADL supported advocates engaged in a months-long fast for immigration reform, stating that “Immigration rights are human rights.”

James Ferg-Cadima, Regional Counsel for the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund (MALDEF) in Washington, DC, had this to say about ADL’s efforts to help pass immigration reform in the Senate:

ADL was one of many key partners in creating one of the most tempered, fact-based and least hate-filled conversations we’ve had about immigration in decades.

Showing broad support for a pathway to citizenship, which ADL offered, was essential. ADL ably pointed out—from a perspective outside the so-called intended beneficiary communities—that second-class citizenship or unrealistic paths to citizenship are unworkable. ADL’s call to make sure that state and local police do not have a role in immigration enforcement—by pointing out the chilling effect a local role has on immigrant victims of crime coming forward—was also incredibly helpful. And, more importantly, ADL’s appeal to avoid hatemongering lowered the temperature of this debate and allowed facts and reason to prevail in the Senate.

We’re off to a good start, but we still have to get the House to act. It’s easy for officials to dismiss an immigration bill in Congress, because those that would benefit are not voters today. But when other communities like ADL support common-sense, comprehensive immigration reform, there’s an extra validation that reform is good for all. Comprehensive reforms to our broken system are in the best interest of our entire nation. ADL should be applauded for its unwavering support.

BROADENING HATE CRIME PROTECTIONS

Since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, ADL has raised concern about an increase in bigoted “backlash crimes” targeting those perceived to be Muslims, Arabs, Sikhs or Hindus. Seeking better protection for these groups, we helped form a broad coalition to ask the Department of Justice and the FBI to start tracking hate crimes against all of them. In 2013, the FBI agreed to do so.

ADL also assists individuals of all nationalities. Jibran Shermohammed, a Pakistani-born Muslim from Atlanta and a student at Emory Law School, spoke about his long association with ADL and how important it is for ADL to stand up for others:

I was involved with ADL’s A WORLD OF DIFFERENCE® Institute Peer Training Program just before 9/11, when I was in middle school. The program taught me the value of openly discussing my Muslim heritage—and I haven’t been shy since.

In college, I interned at ADL’s Atlanta office, where my desk was across from the person monitoring hate. Talking to him, I learned about angry groups across the nation that make life difficult for anyone who isn’t like them. It was eye-opening.

I also learned about ADL’s law enforcement trainings. Police may have expertise in drug addiction or ordinary street crime, but they may not know anything about spotting a hate crime. ADL shows them how to do it.

It’s the same thing with the new FBI hate-crime data collection categories for Sikhs, Hindus and Arabs. People probably assume there already was a category like this, but it took a civil rights organization like ADL to make it happen.

When people ask me why I am so involved with ADL, I am always proud to tell them of my experience with ADL as a champion of all groups suffering from discrimination. While interning with ADL’s Atlanta office, I learned that ADL is often the first responder to incidents of violence against Muslims in the Southeast. It’s really important to see another face—a non-Muslim face—supporting Muslims.

It was very cool to learn that ADL’s approach to fighting anti-Semitism has been supporting pluralism in society. They show people that the way to fight moments of discrimination is to fight discrimination more broadly.

ORGANIZING FOR EQUAL RIGHTS

ADL has long believed that the principle of equal treatment under the law means equal treatment for all. Because of this, our work on behalf of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community has ranged from advocating for anti-discrimination laws and marriage equality—including in the cases the U.S. Supreme Court decided in 2013—to speaking out against mistreatment of LGBT people in Russia and Africa.

ADL filed an amicus brief in U.S. v. Windsor, arguing that the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA) improperly enshrined one particular religious view of marriage into law. ADL created a coalition of more than 20 religiously affiliated and civil rights organizations to join our brief. Ms. Windsor’s attorney, Roberta Kaplan (shown on the right of Edie Windsor), a partner at Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison LLP, had this to say about ADL’s contribution:

The idea of getting amicus support from very mainstream religiously affiliated groups was very important to me, as the lead counsel in the Windsor case. The vast majority of the amicus briefs filed against us were from religious groups or made a religious argument in favor of the inequality. Obviously, we needed an effective, powerful way to counter that message.

I also felt it was incredibly important for the Court to understand that the issue is not one-sided. Many groups, based on their own strongly held religious or cultural beliefs in the dignity of all people, believed that DOMA was unconstitutional.

That sense of human dignity is obviously a core principle of ADL, so ADL was an obvious, natural ally on our side of the case. And not surprisingly, ADL was instrumental in rounding up a diverse coalition of support.

The consequences of the Windsor decision have been both unprec-edented and profound. Immediately after the decision, marriages that had been void in the eyes of the federal government were valid, bringing over 1,100 rights and benefits involving taxes, health care, immigration and more. And developments since the Supreme Court’s decision have been even more astonishing. Courts across the country have relied on Windsor to extend civil rights to gay people.

No other minority group in American history has achieved so much so fast. ADL should be justifiably proud of its important role in this landmark case, which Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has said reflects the “genius of our Constitution.”

INNOVATING TO CURB CYBERHATE

The dark side of the Internet—with bigoted rants, lies, bullying, conspiracy theories and even calls for violence—spreads hate around the globe in seconds. On many levels, ADL is spearheading the drive to combat this threat.

Facebook, Google, YouTube, Amazon and other major Internet companies are part of the Anti-Cyberhate Working Group we’ve convened to address this problem. In 2013, ADL created the Cyber-Safety Action Guide to help users find site policies about online hate and report abuses quickly. And ADL National Director Abraham H. Foxman and ADL Civil Rights Chair Christopher Wolf wrote Viral Hate: Containing Its Spread on the Internet, a seminal book about cyberhate.

We asked Monika Bickert, Facebook’s Head of Global Policy Management, how her company and ADL work together to counter online hate:

We definitely share ADL’s concerns about hate speech online. Our mission is to make the world more open and connected. We’ve taken a strong stance against direct and serious attacks on people based on their race, religion, ethnicity, national origin, sex, gender, sexual

orientation, medical condition or disability. What we’ve seen is that when people in these groups are attacked, it chills their willingness to connect and share with others online, and that makes our mission a lot harder.

Working with groups like ADL, we get a much better understanding of the issues that affect groups that have historically been discriminated against, and the unique ways that hate speech can affect the individual. We really want to understand what hate speech looks like to them and feels like to them so that we can be our best in responding to it. ADL helps give us that insight.

Groups like ADL also give us the ability to educate people about what our policies are, and how individuals can use the controls and reporting tools on the site to address issues of concern. ADL’s Cyber-Safety Action Guide is a fantastic example of that.

One of the valuable things that’s come out of the Anti-Cyberhate Working Group is a shared understanding that it’s important for online services to facilitate productive counterspeech in response to online hate. We’re exploring what motivates people to post counterspeech, and what types of counterspeech are most effective.


IMPROVING OVERSIGHT OF BULLYING

Last year ADL mobilized 49 national organizations to support the U.S. Department of Education’s (DOE) effort to monitor incidents of bullying based on religion and sexual orientation in schools across the country. The DOE agreed to do so. The new data collected will shine a light on and assess the problem of bullying against commonly targeted groups such as Jewish and gay and lesbian people—an essential step toward better prevention and protection nationwide.

In addition to working with the federal government to prevent bullying, we worked on state and local levels. For example, we helped the Colorado Department of Public Safety conduct regional trainings for educators about bullying based on religious, ethnic and other kinds of bias. Christine Harms, director of the Department's Colorado School Safety Resource Center, said this about ADL:

In 2011, Colorado passed a law requiring more active prevention of bullying in schools. That’s when my group and the nonprofits we work with really ramped up our outreach. With ADL, we began regional trainings around the state to teach educators that some groups are bullied more than others due to bias, and how to respond.

ADL does a great job of showing why it’s important to sweat the small stuff—why educators need to stop discrimination among students before it escalates, even at the level of “jokes.” After the trainings, we get comments such as, “I didn’t think about the fact that the language students use is a factor in later harassment and discrimination. Adults in the schools have to be appropriate role models and stop biased language as soon as they hear it.”

The workshops also use scenarios based on actual bullying incidents. The educators break into small groups and talk about how they would have handled the situations differently. In the workshop on cyberbullying, which uses ADL scenarios about legal precedents, the feedback we’ve been getting is, “Very helpful. These are real-life situations that give me my obligations and limits under the law.”

The trainings we do with ADL have reached more than 1,200 educators, mental health professionals, law enforcement and school security personnel to date. The people at ADL are excellent professionals, willing to share their expertise so that the work all of us do to stop bullying is more successful.

SHARING COUNTERTERRORISM EXPERTISE

In October, a delegation of high-level West Coast law enforcement officials participated in an Anti-Defamation League counterterrorism training in Israel. More than 235 members of American law enforcement have participated in these trainings to date. The West Coast group met with security experts, intelligence analysts and commanders in the Israel National Police and Israel Defense Forces, and learned about effective methods of terror attack prevention and response in a variety of settings—including at Ben-Gurion Airport.

A few weeks after the training, Patrick Gannon, the chief of police at Los Angeles International Airport (LAX), had a chance to draw upon what he learned when a man entered LAX, fatally shot one Transportation Security Administration (TSA) officer and injured two others before airport police wounded the man, stopping the rampage. Chief Gannon recalls the sequence of events:

I was meeting with the new director of the FBI office in West Los Angeles when I received a phone call about the shootings from my dispatch. It’s your worst nightmare that some gunman would end up

walking around one of your terminals randomly shooting. I hurried down to the scene.

What I was very proud of is that the outcome could have been much worse if we hadn’t responded quickly and effectively. In a situation like the one at LAX, you have to make split-second decisions. I have to think my discussions with officials I met in Israel and our visit to Ben-Gurion Airport, seeing how security is put together there—it all helps to form how you respond without even thinking.

After the shootings at LAX, my counterpart at Ben-Gurion Airport, Roni Tidhar, and I exchanged e-mails. He wished me luck and offered me any assistance. I will get back to him after the criminal investigation has concluded and I’m free to share information. We’ll talk about what was effective and what we need to do better. I’ll be looking for suggestions from him.

After this trip, because of the experiences I had and the relationships I’ve developed, I’ll be a friend and supporter of ADL for the rest of my life.


EMPOWERING FUTURE GENERATIONS


‘You are all leaders in the making.‘–U.S. Secretary of Labor Thomas Perez


‘TELLING THE WHOLE STORY’ FOR A BETTER WORLD

Bill Bayly is a religion and social studies teacher at St. Vincent Pallotti High School in Maryland. Last summer, as part of ADL’s Eileen Ludwig Greenland National Bearing Witness™ Institute, he joined Catholic-school educators from around the country in Washington, DC, to learn about the relationship between Judaism and Catholicism, especially during the Holocaust. Upon returning home, Mr. Bayly incorporated what he learned from Bearing Witness™ into his school’s curriculum—potentially affecting thousands.

More than 1,800 Catholic educators to date have participated in this unique educational opportunity, a partnership between ADL, the National Catholic Educational Association, the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and local dioceses. Below Mr. Bayly describes his reaction:

I allowed myself to be vulnerable to the whole ugly history of anti-Semitism, even the chapters that involved my own Church: the Church that I love, the Church of my father and mother, my grandparents and their grandparents, where my brother and I were

altar boys. For all the good things the Catholic Church has done, I was being asked to hear also the hard things. The things that weren’t so loving.

I have been taught since I was a boy the importance of repentance, and I truly believe that the future of Jewish-Catholic relations depends on our willingness as Catholics to hear the truth of the whole story of anti-Semitism, especially the ugly parts. And probably the most difficult thing was allowing myself to feel that I could’ve been one of the people that stood by [during the Holocaust] and did nothing.

So what now? What do I do with this experience? I can’t stop thinking about the etching from Isaiah at the [U.S. Holocaust Memorial] Museum: ‘You are my witnesses.’ I intend on doing just that: being a witness. I intend on being a witness for my Jewish brothers and sisters. I intend on telling the whole story—even the ugly parts—of the history of anti-Semitism to my students, my colleagues, to whoever will listen. I believe telling the whole story will bring true healing and lead us into a better world.

‘I THINK WE CAN CHANGE THE FUTURE’

More than 1,500 student leaders from across the country have participated in a life-changing ADL mission that teaches lessons of the Holocaust and shows them ways to make their own worlds more just. Last year a diverse group participated in the ADL Grosfeld Family National Youth Leadership Mission (NYLM) to Washington, DC. There, they visited the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum and met Holocaust survivors, an African-American member of the armed forces who helped liberate Buchenwald during World War II and a survivor of the genocide in Rwanda. They also heard U.S. Secretary of Labor Thomas Perez speak, attended ADL’s Concert Against Hate and were taught hands-on tactics to help fight hate back home. Here is what some students said about the experience:

Photos: Carl Cox

“Every exercise we’ve done here has taught us a lot about what we can do both in our own communities, in our school and in our cities.”–Clay Walsh, New York

“Our generation is one of the last generations that really gets to listen to Holocaust survivors.”–Frida Herrera Lozano, San Diego

“I could never put a face to people who stood up and weren’t bystanders, people who acted and helped people who were being victimized.”–Mallory Sherwood, Chicago

“We can still see how something like this could happen today.”–Caitlyn Malick, Santa Barbara

“I really want to bring education about the Holocaust to my school.”–Samuel Boudreau, New England

“I was astonished that Jacqueline, after all her family was killed in Rwanda, still went on to college. It made me feel, if she can do that, what am I complaining about?” –Kamerie Gibson, Los Angeles

“It was inspiring that somebody as grand as Mr. Foxman felt that we, as 17-year-olds, have the power to change the world.”–Armando Mayo, Florida

“I think we can change the future.”–Ethan Robinson, Los Angeles


“I feel that ADL is … the one group of people who have faith that if everyone works together, we can do something more than

what we are doing now to have a world without hate.”–Lycette Sanchez, New York C
