Boston, MA - CAMERA on Campus announces the continuation of its “This Is Zionism” campaign, which was conceived to inform students and the general public about the meaning of Zionism.
—
The campaign rollout comes at a time when 24% of the American population holds strong antisemitic beliefs, according to the Anti-Defamation League. “This Is Zionism” is a response to various anti-Jewish propaganda and provides support for students who believe in the right of Jewish people to self-determination in their indigenous homeland.

The educational and awareness campaign is complemented by a website that helps students better understand Zionism and how to respond to current threats against it. CAMERA on Campus explains that the most powerful weapon against ignorance is education. Sasha Chernyak, content and campaigns manager, emphasizes that the “false equation of Zionism to something harmful and nefarious has fueled antisemitic attacks against Zionist students.”
CAMERA on Campus highlights various anti-Jewish incidents in the last few months, from the Hamas massacre of Israeli civilians on October 7 to the attack of IDF search and rescue officer Yuval Klein on April 2 at Florida State University. They state that students who would otherwise maintain a neutral stance on the current political climate are influenced by popular media to view all Jews as harmful.
To address this constant spread of misinformation, CAMERA on Campus continues its mission of providing accurate and unbiased coverage of Israel and the Middle East.
As explained by their spokesperson, "CAMERA fosters rigorous reporting while educating news consumers about Middle East issues and the role of the media. Because public opinion ultimately shapes public policy, distorted news coverage that misleads the public can be detrimental to sound policymaking. A non-partisan organization, CAMERA takes no position concerning American or Israeli political issues or about ultimate solutions to the Arab-Israeli conflict."
“This is Zionism” provides students with the resources they need to develop a more objective mindset of the current geopolitical tension.
Binghamton University CAMERA Fellow Aviad Levy ends with, "Zionism is an inextricable part of our identity and sense of peoplehood. In a time when Jewish people around the world need to stand together, CAMERA on Campus’ efforts are a positive step toward strengthening Jewish communities on campuses everywhere."
