According to the ADL data released Thursday morning, there were 114 antisemitic incidents last year in Pennsylvania.
What happened Monday in the city's Port Richmond section will likely be a part of next year's report, as residents found dozens of white supremacist fliers and stickers with racist and antisemitic messages.
The Anti-Defamation League just released new data showing antisemitic incidents in the U.S. rose 36% last year to hit an all-time high. There were 3,697 incidents of harassment, vandalism, or assaults against Jewish people reported across the country. "Pennsylvania has some of the largest chapters of some of the white supremacist groups that exist nationally," said Goretsky, who added that public officials should speak out against hate.
