My interest in Anti-semitism stemmed from my interactions with the Jewish community where I witnessed and experienced various forms of Anti-semitism both through technologies in the media and in person. This lead me to question why these prejudicial beliefs and behaviours against Jews still exist in the 21st Century; an age where racism and discrimination against groups and minorities is highly frowned upon and illegal. actions are being taken to mitigate Anti-semitism’s prevalence in Australia. I was drawn to finding out how prevalent antisemitism was in Australia on a micro, meso and macro level and what measures were being taken to prevent these prejudicial beliefs.
