A media and government watchdog group launched a campaign Tuesday that it says will expose students and faculty on college campuses who have engaged in antisemitic activities and encourage employers to utilize a database that documents such behaviors.
According to Accuracy in Media, a group whose mission is to use “citizen activism and investigative journalism to expose media bias, corruption, and public policy failings,” Tuesday and Wednesday will serve as national days of activism on a number of college campuses across the country where reports of antisemitic behavior have been on the rise.
Those campuses include Columbia University (only on Wednesday), Harvard University, University of California at Berkeley, University of Colorado at Boulder, University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill and the University of Southern California.
As part of the days of activism, Accuracy in Media will deploy mobile billboards to each of the campuses, which will promote a new website launched by the group: CheckYourHate.com. The website includes a petition that urges employers to “blacklist” applicants who have allegedly engaged in antisemitic activities or sentiments on each respective campus.
Those applicants, the group said, will be tracked on a new database, launched by fellow watchdog group Canary Mission, that documents students, professionals and organizations “that have espoused hateful, antisemitic beliefs on college campuses and beyond.”
“The surge in antisemitic sentiment we’ve seen at American universities is disgusting and concerning,” Accuracy in Media President Adam Guillette told Fox News Digital in a statement. “The October 7 attacks emboldened these hateful antisemites to come out of the shadows and brazenly call for the destruction of Israel.”
