Nexus Task Force

The Nexus Task Force analyzes issues at the intersection of Israel and antisemitism. It drafted a White Paper, Understanding Antisemitism at its Nexus with Israel and Zionism, which endeavors to define antisemitism so that it is relevant to the current context worldwide — especially with regard to the relationship between antisemitism, and Israel and Zionism.

The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism welcomed the Nexus Document, which is derived from the White Paper, as a valuable tool to raise awareness and increase understanding of antisemitism.

The Nexus Task Force is affiliated with The Bard Center for the Study of Hate (BCSH). While not necessarily endorsing Nexus positions, BCSH welcomes the opportunity to provide an academic home for such deliberations about hate and its manifestations, and for interested Bard faculty and students to become involved with the Task Force’s work.
