November 29, 2016 - AHA members are using their historical perspective to build solidarity in the wake of the US presidential election. The Jewish Journal published a statement from over 250 Jewish scholars, including many AHA members, expressing concern about "the racial, ethnic, gender-based, and religious hatred" evidenced by Donald Trump during his campaign and since his election to the Presidency. The statement calls for unity to defend "the constitutional rights and liberties of all Americans."
