What does it mean to be antisemitic? We explain the term and why it's part of the debate over protests.
Acts of anti-Jewish hatred have been on the rise since Israel-Hamas war started in Oct. 2023. But what does antisemitism mean? What to know.

When I first heard of the 10/7 attack, I was playing #YookaLaylee. I immediately started calling friends & family, & had not been able to pick up the PS5 controller since.
Last night, I finally beat the game. It's a small victory, but it's a bit of normalcy & the closure is real

After an impossible few weeks, it’s hard to put into words just how meaningful this past week was. To be surrounded by 290,000 of my closest friends and family. To stand with Israel, call to free all the hostages, and against rising antisemitism. To not feel alone.
