In an urgent and personal new book, Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer sheds light on the Jewish American experience and sounds the alarm about the troubling resurgence of antisemitism.

Chuck Schumer is the Senate Democratic Leader and highest-elected Jewish official in American history. He has been United States senator from New York since 1999. He is the author of Positively American: Winning Back the Middle Class One Family at a Time.

When it comes to the history of the Jewish people, there is a national and global crisis of misunderstanding. This lack of knowledge feeds demons of ignorance, hatred, and violence. Antisemitism in America: A Warning is an urgent book that illuminates the Jewish experience and the prejudices both hidden and overt that have led to the chronic persecution of the Jewish people.

By placing antisemitism in its proper historical context, and drawing from Senator Schumer's own life, the book informs Americans' understanding of the causes of the recent swell of antisemitic rhetoric and violence in our country. In very personal terms, it will engage with debates over the purpose and meaning of Israel, and help draw a line between legitimate criticism of its government and when criticism of Israel as a Jewish homeland verges into antisemitism. This book is a warning, informed by the lessons of history, about what can happen when the “world's oldest hatred” is allowed to rise, unchecked.
