Real Jewish Leadership at Harvard

The Jewish Leadership Project is bringing public attention to the ugly situation at Harvard while most Jewish leaders are reluctant to make displays of their concerns

A picture of our truck (above) outside Harvard was published in The Wall Street Journal. Our truck depicted President Gay’s despicable statement in front of Congress that “It depends on [the] context” whether or not calls for a second Holocaust go against Harvard’s policy against harassment and bullying.

Hostility to Jews at Harvard continued this past Chanukah as President Gay’s staff told the head rabbi of Harvard’s Chabad house to put the menorah away at night, since the university could not prevent it from being vandalized.

Later in the week, pro-Hamas students took over a reading room at Widener Library under a huge banner proclaiming “Free Palestine!” No Jewish student could possibly sit there and prepare for exams.

President Gay must be fired or resign if Jews are to be protected; or Harvard to be respected.

This is a momentous time for Jews around the world. American Jews need strong leaders to stand up and fight back.
