  • CAMERA Unites Its Social Media Presence Under One Voice

    CAMERA – CAMERA is proud to announce that our social media accounts are being unified under one name: @CAMERA4Truth, bringing together the full range of CAMERA’s work in one place across all major platforms.

  • CAMERA Education Presents: Zionism and the Movement for Jewish Self-Determination

    CAMERA – The CAMERA Education K-12 Program hosted a webinar titled, “What is Zionism?” Attendees learned about the Zionist Movement, its origins, the challenges it faced, and how Zionists overcame those challenges in order to create the State of Israel.

  • Rife with Bias and Inaccuracies, Understanding Palestine Has No Place in Schools

    CAMERA – Teach Palestine’s latest resource for educators, Understanding Palestine, is politically biased and distorts history to delegitimize Israel and Jewish self-determination.

  • CEI Back-to-School Tips

    CAMERA – With the new school year now in full swing, the CAMERA Education Institute offers several tips to ensure a successful start to the year ahead.

  • Summary of CEI Report “Zinn Education Project: Historical Revisionism Fostering Hostility Toward America and Israel”

    CAMERA – A summary of Senior Education Analyst Jess Sadick’s exposé on the Zinn Education Project

  • Why the Massachusetts Teachers Association is Wrong About Antisemitism

    Boston Globe – The MTA’s tax-exempt status exists to support its work on behalf of teachers’ working conditions, not to fund political campaigns or promote foreign policy positions, argues CAMERA’s Jany Finkielsztein.

  • Zinn Education Project: Historical Revisionism Fostering Hostility Toward America and Israel

    CAMERA – The Zinn Education Project bills itself as a grassroots initiative promoting a more “inclusive” approach to history. However, CAMERA Education Institute’s scrutiny of sections of the curriculum exposes a pattern of radical indoctrination targeting K-12 students.

  • Bringing Anti-Israel Activism to Schools Under the Guise of Arab Heritage

    CAMERA – The content of the presentation was less about Arab culture and more about controversial issues from a one-sided perspective. The pedagogy was less about presenting new content knowledge and more about encouraging partisan student activism.

  • How the MTA Embraced Misinformation and Lost our Trust

    JNS – Rather than adhere to educational standards, the Massachusetts Teachers Association has pursued a one-sided approach when teaching about Israel and Hamas.

  • Massachusetts Schools Needs a Balanced Curriculum on the Mideast

    Boston Globe – “While Max Page claims that the MTA is reviewing the curricula-resources web page, there is no clear structure or system in place for how this review is being conducted, who is responsible for conducting it, and what criteria is being used,” says CAMERA’s Jany Finkielsztein, also a member of MEAA.

  • Anti-Israel Propaganda in Two California School Districts

    CAMERA – Based on documents received from a FOIA request filed by Zachor Legal that were subsequently shared with CAMERA, this report documents how anti-Israel propaganda has infiltrated classrooms in two California school districts: Dublin Unified and New Haven Unified.

  • Updated: New Visions Curriculum Promotes a Distorted View of Israel

    CAMERA – New Visions for Public Schools normally provides high quality educational resources. Unfortunately, their lessons on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict fall short.

    UPDATE: New Visions has removed these lessons and is in the process of rewriting them. 

  • Responding to Indiana University Professor Benjamin Robinson’s Attack on a Jewish Student

    CAMERA – CAMERA stands unreservedly behind Applefield, who is a 2024-25 CAMERA on Campus fellow. We’re proud of her article and of her ability to engage in public dialogue in a civil, fact-based manner.

  • The Real Threat to Academic Freedom at Cornell University

    CAMERA – Academic freedom is an important value that must be protected. That includes protection against those who would exploit their freedom to undermine academic integrity and the academic freedom of others from within. At Cornell University, that threat is emerging.

  • Radicals Tried and Failed to Expel CAMERA From A Teachers’ Convention

    CAMERA – A call for book-burning at the 2024 NCTE annual convention highlights the attempt by anti-Zionist activists to control the narrative. After  failing to pressure the NCTE into cancelling CAMERA’s inclusion in the convention with defamatory claims against CEI, the same activists are  now campaigning to stigmatize the teacher’s council.

  • Magazine That Rejected ‘Israel’ Ad Promoted Antisemitic Book

    The Free Press – Jany Finkielsztein, a senior education analyst for CAMERA, said that “P Is for Palestine serves as a tool of indoctrination rather than simple storytelling.  For instance, ‘I is for intifada‘ portrays violent uprisings in a favorable manner, conveying a harmful narrative to impressionable young children.  Books that prioritize indoctrination aren’t literature.”
