The Jewish Federation of Greater Binghamton has launched a %u201CHate Has No Home Here%u201D campaign. Its website’s page about the campaign offers a 17” by 11” inch poster and social media graphic of the slogan for free download. The poster is also available from the Federation for those interested in hanging one in a business, office, house of worship or school. The Federation will also promote those who partner with the campaign. For more information or to request a poster, contact the Federation at 607-724-2332. 
“Antisemitism has been escalating across communities around the world,” said Shelley Hubal, executive director of the Federation. “Historically, surges in antisemitism have served as a harbinger for broader waves of discrimination against marginalized communities of all kinds, often fueling a dangerous escalation of hate and violence in society. We all share the responsibility to directly confront bigotry and hate of all forms. Now is the time for us to join together and declare that ‘Hate Has No Home Here’ in Binghamton and around the world.”
Hubal noted there are other ways people can help:
 Amplify the message on websites, in e-blasts and on social media. The social media graphic is free for individuals, businesses and organizations to use. 
 Be an ally: Speak out when hearing antisemitic slurs and tropes or derogatory comments toward any marginalized community. Silence sends the message that such remarks are acceptable and normalizes them.
 Advocate against antisemitism and all forms of hate.
The web page also includes additional resources to help fight hate. “Help us stop hate in all its forms,” Hubal noted. “We would like to thank the Jewish Federation of the Berkshires for allowing us to use their material and expertise in creating this ad and webpage.”
