The year 2021 was marked by a series of heart-wrenching setbacks in the fight against hate around the world. From the Capitol insurrection on January 6 to brazen attacks on Jews, Asian Americans, and other marginalized groups in the streets of New York and Los Angeles, these events drew back the curtain on the prevalence of antisemitism and racism, fueled hatred in our communities and fostered division across society.
Fortunately, they did not come without repercussions or a response…
As the year draws to a close, ADL looks back on the moments from 2021 that gave us hope and encouragement that our hundred-plus-year fight against antisemitism and hate is making progress.
And there were plenty of big, inspirational moments to choose from in 2021: A $26 million verdict against the white supremacists responsible for Charlottesville; the launch of a $1.1 billion foundation to help prevent Anti-Asian hate crimes; and meaningful legal victories against racially motivated…
Una de las muchas revelaciones condenatorias de la denunciante de Facebook Frances Haugen durante su testimonio en el Congreso el 5 de octubre fue que la plataforma dedica el 87% de sus investigaciones y recursos a combatir la desinformación en contenidos en inglés, cuando sólo el 9% de sus usuarios son angloparlantes. La falta de control de los contenidos de odio en idiomas distintos al inglés ha contribuido a alimentar conflictos mundiales tales como la guerra…
How much hate exists online, and how large is its reach? Is it possible to independently evaluate the claims tech companies make about the amount of hate on their platforms and how effectively they are addressing it? To answer these questions, ADL Center for Technology and Society (CTS) is building the Online Hate Index (OHI), a machine learning system that detects hate targeting marginalized groups on online platforms. This report presents the inaugural findings of the OHI’s…
One of the many damning revelations from Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen during her Congressional testimony on October 5 was that the platform devotes 87% of its research and resources on fighting misinformation to English-language content when only 9% of its users are English speakers. The lack of content moderation over hateful content in languages other than English has helped fuel global conflicts such as the civil war in Ethiopia.
And it appears Facebook’s efforts in…
Read Full ReportOvert state-sponsored antisemitism ended in Europe with the fall of the Soviet Union. Antisemitic attitudes, however, remain prevalent in Europe, and some European political actors have instrumentalized antisemitism for political gain. This report examines both the conscious use of antisemitism in European politics and the calculated tolerance of antisemitism, demonstrating that the oldest hatred remains a modern political tool.
Unlike antisemitic incidents of…

ADL Center for Technology and Society has published an updated Holocaust denial report card as of April 2023. Click HERE to view the new data.
The Holocaust, the systematic murder of approximately six million Jews and several million others by the Nazis, is one of history's most painstakingly examined and well-documented genocides.
Nevertheless, in the decades since World War II, a small group of antisemites has repeatedly attempted to cast doubt on the facts of the Holocaust…
Despite the extensive attention already paid to intolerant textbooks and other educational materials in many Middle Eastern countries, comparatively little analysis has been conducted on the ideological materials used to indoctrinate children in schools linked to the notorious terrorist organization Hezbollah. This report seeks to address that important gap, documenting the systematic and egregious incitement to antisemitism and support for terrorism that is propagated in numerous such…
From the Boston Marathon Bombing in 2013 to the white supremacist shooting in El Paso earlier this year, from the detention and dehumanization of immigrant children at the border to the largest anti-Semitic attack in United States history last year, this decade was bookended and interspersed by a series of all-too-frequent tragedies, many perpetrated by extremists from across the ideological spectrum and others the result of wrongheaded government policy. Over the past decade, seven of the top…
Hate-fueled mass shootings horrifyingly make up half of our 2019 Top Ten Incidents of Hate List. Three of the shootings took place in houses of worship: two synagogues, and two mosques. One of those shootings was on the holiest day of the year, Yom Kippur. Three perpetrators were white supremacists, two are believed to have ties to an anti-Semitic sect of the Black Hebrew Israelite movement. Two shootings were overseas, three of them spanned both coasts of the U.S. Hate spread across the…
ADL's Audit of Anti-Semitic Incidents in 2018 found that anti-Semitic incidents remained at near-historic levels this year and assaults against the Jewish community nearly doubled.

A large percentage of Greeks harbor anti-Semitic attitudes and stereotypes, according to a series of recent opinion polls. Anti-Semitic incidents, though few in number, are reported throughout the country.
Fortunately, anti-Semitism in Greece does not have a violent character and there have been no reported physical attacks in recent years. Its manifestations…
In a year characterized by a number of high-profile acts of hate, there still were many remarkable moments of hope and inspiration. Here are some of the stories that energized and uplifted us in 2018.
