International Day Against Fascism and Antisemitism is a significant event in Black history as it highlights the ongoing fight against hate, discrimination, and bigotry. Black communities around the world have often been targets of fascism and antisemitism, facing oppression and violence due to their race and religion.

During the Holocaust, many Black individuals and communities were among those targeted by the Nazis for extermination. The intersectionality of racism and antisemitism led to the persecution of Black Jews and others who were deemed undesirable by the fascist regime.

In modern times, the International Day Against Fascism and Antisemitism serves as a reminder of the importance of solidarity among marginalized groups in the fight against hate and discrimination. Black activists and organizations have played a crucial role in combating fascism and antisemitism, advocating for equality, justice, and inclusivity for all individuals regardless of their race or religion.

By commemorating this day, we honor the resilience and strength of Black communities in the face of hatred and oppression, and we reaffirm our commitment to building a more just and inclusive society for future generations.
