To help build greater awareness of antisemitism and antisemitic tropes and dog whistles, we are pulling together a thread of learning resources.

For a basic overview, the Wikipedia article on antisemitic tropes is a good start.

The Anti-Defamation League has created an extensive guide to historical and contemporary antisemitism called Antisemitism Uncovered: A Guide to Old Myths in a New Era

From the Institute for the Study of Global Antisemitism and Policy, there is a collection of scholarly research seminars called Historical Tropes in Contemporary Antisemitism

Please feel free to reply with additional resources!

This is a bit ranty so sorry.

I don't want to talk about The Bad Batch anymore than to say that I watched the start of S2, and it’s really bad for the same reasons as the first season was bad: the whitewashing is fucking disgusting. Like, it’s so blatant and just overwhelms the rest of the story (and is critical to it, unfortunately). I'm supposed to be paying attention to Imperial atrocities, greed, the oppression and use of the regular clones, but I'm still reminded by the show time and again that Clone Force 99 apparently have the desirable traits the Kaminoans didn't want – more individualism, more cunning, more creativity, more intelligence (looking at you Tech). And when the regular clones have the appropriate skin tone, I'm just supposed to sit here and assume that it’s not relevant to their differences when it’s right in front of my eyes? And because that difference is clearly not intentional because the team knew about the issue and already ""addressed"" it (poorly), that's even more fucking disappointing.

Instead of paying attention to the nuances of the Empire's development and small resistances to it, I'm basically only watching to see what the regular clones are up to. I don't much care for whatever the Bad Batch do next. The subservient regular clones are worse than the whiter individualistic clones, great, thanks story for your wonderful message. :(

I'm really fucking annoyed because SW animation has some of my favorite stories in the entire universe. It’s a huge step back. We need to move on to something different because this isn't it. The only saving grace is that TBB isn't the only SW media coming out right now, so I can pay attention to The High Republic, Mandalorian, etc.

Hi! I'm part of the #unwhitewashthebadbatch movement. Its a Star Wars show called the Bad Batch and the show is a racist disaster and keeps getting worse as the show goes on. @/clonehub has a convienent carrd showcasing and explaining the racism in the show! I was hoping of you could share it and spread awareness. Have a great day!

What’s The #UnWhiteWashTheBadBatch Campaign And Why Does it Matter? — CultureSlate

Season 2 of Star Wars: The Bad Batch has officially begun. Premiering this past Wednesday with its first two episodes titled “Spoils o

Since The Clone Wars, a good number of fans have been pointing out the inconsistency in the design of the clone troopers, with many noting the lighter skin tones and general Euro-centric features exhibited by the characters. This is notable, especially since the clones are visually based on Temuera Morrison, the Māori actor who plays Jango Fett and all of his clones in every live-action Star Wars project.
