The U.S. National Strategy to Counter Antisemitism recently released by President Joe Biden represents a comprehensive effort to confront and defeat the modern surge of this ancient evil, and it spares no corner of American society from scrutiny or a call to action—not our schools, our houses of worship, or our places of work.
The workplace has not been immune from the explosion in global antisemitism, in all its malignant forms, and the National Strategy calls out an insidious form of exclusion that is stifling the ability of Jews to confront and mitigate on-the-job antisemitism: across the country, tens of thousands of Jewish employees—whether religiously observant or decidedly secular—at many of America’s largest, most successful, most innovative, and, yes, most enlightened companies, are told that a prime mechanism for combating workplace discrimination and promoting diversity—the identity-based Employee Resource Group (ERG)—isn’t available to Jews.
