Nearly 180 gravestones at two Jewish cemeteries in Cincinnati have been vandalized, according to the Jewish Cemeteries of Greater Cincinnati and the Jewish Federation of Cincinnati.

Many of the gravestones – some dating back to the late 1800s – have been knocked face-down, with some cracked in half, at the Tifereth Israel and the Beth Hamedrash Hagadol cemeteries in the Covedale Cemetery complex.

      I don’t really encounter anti-semitism around my social circles. There’s definitely anti-islamist and anti-indigenous though. I dunno, all I can do is foster an open mind with the people I interact with. Keep safe, friend
