Following the release of the Nexus Project’s Shofar Report, JTA reported on the report’s impact as a major Jewish response to Heritage Foundation’s Project Esther. JTA summarized the report’s aims and purpose: “fighting antisemitism requires fighting for democratic institutions and embracing traditional liberal coalition-building. Universities, civil rights law, and immigration rights all must be protected in order to safeguard Jews within a liberal democracy, the authors argue.” Nexus Project National Director Jonathan Jacoby told JTA: “Each of these recommendations needs to be translated into more concrete and more specific ideas for action, and our hope is that they will be over the coming year, and actually over the coming years as the political landscape shifts.”
