Barely seven decades after the fall of the Nazis, the scourge of anti-Semitism is once again, openly and at times violently, re-emerging in Europe. Terrorists have murdered Jewish children and adults in Paris, Brussels, Copenhagen and Toulouse. Jewish buildings and graves have been desecrated. Comparisons to the early 1930s are being made.

On the next episode of the public-affairs program “Sanctuary” – which airs at 11:30 a.m. Sunday, May 17, on ABC7-Channel 7 – two of European Jewry’s leading figures offer insights into what is happening across the continent and, specifically, in their native France, home to more than half a million Jews.

Featured are noted philosopher and author Bernard-Henri Lévy, who in January keynoted a United Nations session on global anti-Semitism, and Jewish communal leader David Revcolevschi. Cindy Sher hosts.

Starting Monday, May 18, the program will be available for viewing on the Jewish United Fund website, www.juf.org/interactive .

“Sanctuary” is a joint production of the Jewish United Fund of Metropolitan Chicago and the Chicago Board of Rabbis, in cooperation with ABC7-Channel 7.
