"Understanding Anti-Semitism" is a well-researched documentary that helps to explain "why" some people express Jewish antipathy. While condemning hatred, violence, and anti-Semitic stereotypes, the DVD takes the viewer on a journey through time, showing that Jewish hatred has nevertheless existed in America and beyond. It focuses on the reasons why, as expressed by others and reiterated in a relatively objective manner. The video has scene-selection, consisting of over 25 chapters, covering these and other topics: The Jewish Look, focusing on the stereotypes and showing that not all Jews fit such; The Rabbinical Kosher Excise Tax, dealing with certain claims; What Does the Term "Anti-Semitism" Really Mean(?); The Jewish Political Action Committees; Washington: A Jewish Closed-Shop(?); The "Jewish Media Barons," which states the claims argued by some anti-Semites; Holocaust Propaganda through the eyes of the Jewish Media Barons, dealing with such accusations by others that some Jewish claims are exaggerations; "The International Jew," dealing with Henry Ford's books; The Jewish Integrationists or Segregationists(?); Jews and Slavery, describing claims proposed by the anti-Semitic Nation of Islam; The Jews and Modern Art; Judaism and Judeo-Christianity; Zionism: A Jewish Plot to Control the World(?), focusing on claims made by anti-Semites dealing with this; The Jews and the Mideast Wars, describing modern claims that Jews were behind the war; Jewish Treachery; Jewish Terrorism; and, Jews and Germany. This video is ideal for sociology or psychology classes who are interested in such matters. Due to the many topics covered, it might help to animate students and to get them thinking. It is also useful for individuals who have been curious about such matters. It is not recommended for people with health conditions or for juveniles.
