Mr. Berger has been instrumental in the unveiling of the #StandUpToJewishHate campaign that has launched a movement to use the Blue Square as a unifying symbol of support for Jews in America. Â It is designed to raise awareness about antisemitism and to encourage all people, especially non-Jews, to post and share the Blue Square to stand up against intolerance. Â Matthew is a vereran non-profit leader who will share his experience in combating antisemitism and advocating for broader DEI issues. Â It is hard to know what to do as just one person in the fight against antisemitism, and he provides a vision to raise awareness about hate and injustice and foster change. Â Special thanks to our partners at Howard County Library System and Howard County Office of Human Rights & Equity. Â
