    1. Even though Fagin is never explicitly referred to as Jewish in David Lean's Oliver Twist (1948), I found this prosthetic nose to be incredibly uncomfortable and antisemitic
    2. I’m not Jewish (atheist), struggling to feel good about my own identity because of antisemitism being directed at me.
    3. This college addressed its antisemitism problem the right way
