We live in uncertain and unsettling times. Today’s global culture is rife with violent bigotry, nationalism and antisemitism. But the rhetoric is not new. It is grounded in attitudes and values from the 1930s and the 1940s in Europe and America.

The symposium "Antisemitism-Then and Now" will take place on April 1, 8:45 a.m.-5 p.m., UNL City Campus Union, Colonial Rooms A & B. The event is free and open to the public. The 3-part symposium focuses on historic antisemitism, religious antisemitism and political ideologies and modern antisemitism in Europe and the U. S.

A free lunch will be provided.
