The man who perpetrated the deadliest attack against Jews in U.S. history, taking 11 lives and injuring seven at the Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh, was sentenced to death on Wednesday.
 
The shooting was the genesis for Robert Kraft's commitment to create a foundation to combat antisemitism and all forms of hate. May we never forget the terrible crimes committed that day and use that memory as motivation to ensure that it never happens again by encouraging everyone to stand up to all hate, violence and antisemitism.
 
Despite the death sentence, it could be years before the execution is carried out due to the Department of Justice’s current halt on capital punishment.
 
Conversation online focused on remembering the lives of those lost and their families. While some debated the ethics of the death penalty, most users were relieved that justice was served.

Rothschild Conspiracy theories

A recent tweet by conspiracy theorist Matt Wallace falsely attributed a photo of a tourist attraction in Felicity, Calif., to the Rothschild family, calling it the “Rothschild Temple.” Wallace claims that “very disturbing things happen in the caverns underneath it” and threatened to release more details. Users of X, formerly known as Twitter, added a community note to the post, clarifying that the pyramid is actually a landmark that marks the “Center of the World."

The Rothschilds are a Jewish banking family that began their business in the 18th century. The family is commonly invoked by conspiracy theorists as a generic dog whistle to claim Jews are in control of the U.S. Federal Reserve system and, in effect, control all the money in the world. Wallace’s tweet is an example of social media users using false information to promote antisemitic conspiracy theories.

Antisemitism and Racism Panel At NAACP convention
The "Hate Has No Home Here: A Conversation on Racism, Antisemitism, and Building Bridges to Fight All Hate" panel discussion took place this past weekend in Boston at the 114th NAACP Convention. Moderated by Fox Sports 1 host Joy Taylor, the panel featured FCAS founder Robert Kraft, NAACP President Derrick Johnson, Professor Henry Louis Gates, and criminal justice reform advocate Meek Mill for an important conversation to discuss the commonalities between anti-Black racism and antisemitism, the historical relationship between Black and Jewish people, and the importance of continued solidarity amongst the two groups. 
 
Kraft explained that, “we have to stand together and stand proud and push back on this hate to keep the vibrancy of this country.” Speaking about the importance of building bridges between the Black and Jewish community Kraft said, “people are trying to put boulders between the Black community and the Jewish community, and we’ve always been uniquely tied together.”
 
Users online celebrated the conversation and emphasized the importance in building strong relationships and support between the Black and Jewish in the fight against all forms of hate.
