Jewish students have been subjected to a hostile environment in the Mental Health Counseling master’s program (“MHC program”) at Brooklyn College (“BC” or “the College”) since the beginning of the 2020-2021 academic year. In class lectures and course materials, professors have maligned Jews on the basis of race and ethnic identity by advancing the narrative that all Jews are white and privileged and therefore contribute to the system oppression of people of color. Jewish students in the MHC program have also been bullied and harassed in class discussions and on social media by student peers, who target Jewish students using the same ethnic stereotypes, anti-Semitic tropes and divisive concepts that faculty members promote in their courses.
