Anti-Semitism Is On The Rise; Twenty 2020 Democratic Candidates Are In The Race

We want to hear from you. It's just Colin and your calls.

Twenty Democratic presidential contenders are in the race for 2020. Are you suffering from choice overload? Is electability your primary criteria? If so, it probably shouldn't be. Who we consider electable usually leaves out women and minorities. Do we even know what makes someone electable?  You're not alone if you're having trouble keeping up with who believes what. Give us a call.

Also this hour: Sunday's shooting at Chabad Poway is more evidence in the rise of anti-semitic violence across Europe and the U.S. The nearly 2,000 incidents fueled by social media and provacative language by politicians coincide with what the Anti-Defamation League calls the biggest jump in violence since it began tracking events forty years ago.

Yet, as violence against Jews surge, there is a concurrent denial that anti-Semitism exists, including by way of ignorance.

Here's how both topics come together. We have an opportunity before the 2020 election to demand plans on how candidates from both parties plan to deal with the rise of white nationalist violence.
