How do we respond when a friend shares a harmful stereotype? In this short video, eighth grader Sasha sees an antisemitic meme in a group chat and has to decide what to do. Her story brings to life the base of the Pyramid of Hate, a model that shows how biased attitudes, when left unchallenged, can contribute to discrimination and violence. The video explores how antisemitism can hide in humor, why recognizing stereotypes matters and what it looks like to speak up.
Sasha’s story is one example from ADL's Understanding the Pyramid of Hate mini-lesson for students and teachers. This 20-minute lesson explores each level of the pyramid through real-world examples, helping students understand how bias can escalate and identify opportunities to challenge it.
