  • The Jewish Community of Australia and Its Challenges
    Changing Jewish Communities www.jcpa.org No 13, 15 October 2006, 23 Tishrei 5767 The Jewish Community of Australia and Its Challenges Jeremy Jones • The Australian Jewish community numbers between 100,000 and 120,000. The majority of Australian Jews were born in other countries, with the United Kingdom, Poland, the Former Soviet Union, and South Africa being the most significant of many and diverse sources of immigration. Estimates of the number of Australian Jews who have emigrated to Israel, despite the absence of serious "push" factors, are high, as are percentages of Jewish children attending Jewish day schools. • The internal challenges for the community include preserving Jewish identity in a society that offers numerous choices for an individual's self-identification, understanding and addressing the particular needs of newer arrivals and their place in the broader Jewish community, and providing for the financial and other requirements of an aging population and of Australian Jews who suffer from social disadvantage. • The external challenges the community faces include confronting anti-Semitism, protection from terrorism, and maintaining a satisfactory relationship with government. In the first fleet of British ships that established the Penal Colony of New South Wales in January 1788, the human cargo of prisoners sentenced to servitude included some eight to fourteen Jews. From relatively early in the history of the Colony, convicts, including Jewish ones, were expected to attend religious services of their own faith. In synagogues in the former colony of Van Diemen's Land (now Tasmania), physical reminders of convict days remain in the form of structures permitting convicts to be physically chained by their leg to the pews.

He reflected: ‘At Easter we cannot help but think about the land that Jesus knew and the city outside whose walls he was crucified. These last months have seen a phase of peace talks between Israel and the Palestinians yet again stalling, staggering and delivering little or nothing for those who most need signs of hope. Everything seems to be presented as a zero-sum game. And all who love both the Israeli and the Palestinian communities and long for their security will feel more desperate than ever … Listening to a rabbi talking about what it is like to witness the gathering up of body parts after a terrorist attack is something that can't be forgotten; neither is listening to a Palestinian whose parent or child has been killed in front of their eyes in a mortar bombing.’ The Archbishop went on to comment: ‘So how do we respond? By turning up the volume of partisanship, by searching for new diplomatic initiatives, by pretending it isn't as bad as all that after all? If we believe in a God who acts, we have to go beyond this.

LOOSE CANON ON DECK: HOW CONTEMPORARY CHRISTIANS REACT TO MEDIA PORTRAYALS OF FAITH, BELIEFS, AND RITUALS by MITCHELL L LEOPARD Under the Direction of Timothy Renick ABSTRACT Throughout much of Christian history, the church had predominant control over religious ritual and belief. As early as the 1st Century, institutions representing “orthodoxy” were banning, forbidding or destroying the “heretical”, separating it from what eventually would become canon and religious practice. The 21st Century provides new ways for spiritual knowledge to spread, bypassing traditional methods. Modern Martin Luthers can nail a manifesto to an internet door while the media’s obsession with non-canonical texts provides no shortage of material for movies and television. A multi-media barrage challenges orthodox concepts and scriptural definition, often blurring the line between religion and entertainment.

This dissertation examines the use of Gospel tracts in the construction of evangelical identity. Often overlooked as mere ephemera, tracts can be used as windows into the lived religious behavior of ordinary Evangelicals. While nominally tools of outreach, the efficacy of tract distribution is often called into question. However as artifacts of religious and cultural behavior, gospel tracts also shed light on the ways in which certain evangelical communities construct borders of identity between themselves, secular society and rival religious groups. Archival research was employed in the gathering of historical documents from tract literature databases. Contemporary material was obtained through excavation of online literature and found ephemera.

  • SHEG Research Note: Dot-Orgs and Hate Groups
    Research Note, B-2019.12 Dot-Orgs Spreading Hate: Southern Poverty Law Center Hate Group Domain Research November 23, 2019 [email protected] Methodology We set a sample size of n =100 websites from the Southern Poverty Law Center’s (SPLC’s) list of over 10221 hate groups operating in the United States in 2018 (https://www.splcenter.org/hate-map). We sought to discover the prevalence of the dot-org 1 These are not 1022 unique groups but include geographical variations domain among the various groups appearing on the SPLC list. Research shows a dot-org domain is a weak sign of credibility for evaluating online information, and yet is widely thought to be a useful signal.2 This potential to mislead internet users is particularly concerning when it comes to hate groups. We sought to understand the scope and scale of this issue. Given that we were concerned with a group’s online presence, we naturally excluded those organizations that did not have a corresponding website. For some groups on the SPLC’s list, we were unable to find a website even when digging deep into the internet and using the Tor Project browser to mask our online footprint. There was generally a negative correlation between how extreme or violent the group was and the likelihood that a website could be located for it (though there were exceptions; for example, the American Nazi Party and the Loyal White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan both maintain a web presence). We also excluded organizations that did not have a currently active site, even if we were able to find an internet archive version of the group’s past digital presence.

  • Bds As a Threat to Academic Freedom and Campus Free Speech in the United States
    BDS AS A THREAT TO ACADEMIC FREEDOM AND CAMPUS FREE SPEECH IN THE UNITED STATES Michael B. Atkins and Miriam F. Elman1 This article considers the impact that the anti-Israel Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions (BDS) movement has had on academic freedom and freedom of expression in the American academy. Focusing on campaigns to boycott Israeli academic institutions; attempts at disrupting Israel-related speaking events; and actions that impede the ability of Jewish students to freely express their Zionist identities, the article examines the most significant ways that BDS-related activism undermines and threatens to erode well-established notions of academic freedom and free speech on a growing numBer of US college and university campuses. Legal avenues that are increasingly Being pursued to address campus antisemitism, including the filing of complaints with the US Department of Education alleging discrimination under Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, are also analyzed. While most BDS-related advocacy is lawful, protected by the First Amendment and by institutional rules and norms regarding freedom of expression, the article underscores that protected speech can also Be deeply hurtful and offensive to its intended targets and can weaken the diverse, inclusive, and intellectually roBust environments that universities strive to create. The article concludes by highlighting the positive efforts being undertaken by a growing number of university leaders to address anti-Jewish intolerance and to improve the climate on campus for all students. 1.

The American white supremacy movements of the Ku Klux Klan and Christian Identity are deeply rooted in Protestant Christianity and are also responsible for some of the gravest acts of violence on American soil. The intersection between religious belief and terrorist action illuminates the interplay between religion and acts of violence. This study firstly provides a history of the ideology of Christian Identity with specific attention to the ways in which committing violence is rationalized and understood as redemptive.
