Just one day after the 75th anniversary commemorating the liberation of the most deadly concentration camp during the Holocaust, Auschwitz, the Beverly Hills City Council unanimously adopted a definition of anti-Semitism. Historians estimate that six million Jews were systematically murdered during the Holocaust.
In response to an increase of anti-Semitic attacks across the county, including last month’s anti-Semitic vandalism at Nessah Synagogue in Beverly Hills, the Council reaffirmed its commitment to take meaningful measures to ensure that its actions reaffirm the promise of “never again.”
