    Time, Monday - 05/06/2024 - 07:00 AM

    “Educate them about the Holocaust.” That’s the rallying cry for many of those who feel shocked by skyrocketing antisemitism and Islamophobia on college campuses and K-12 schools. Learning about the Final Solution, the reasoning goes, steers young Americans against bigotry.
