What makes an image or a joke antisemitic, and why can it be hard to spot? This short video unpacks what antisemitism really is, from harmful stereotypes to conspiracy theories, then puts that knowledge to the test with a real example: the widely shared "Happy Merchant" meme. Designed for middle and high school students and educators, it reveals how centuries-old myths about Jewish people still circulate today, hidden in plain sight. Viewers will walk away with practical questions they can ask any time they encounter a suspicious image or message, so they're ready to spot antisemitism and help build communities rooted in dignity and respect.
