Florida Jewish History Month
January 15, 2021
January is Florida Jewish History Month, designated by the Florida Legislature in 2003. It is a time to teach and celebrate the contributions of Floridian Jews to the development of the Sunshine State. Since my seminal book, Jews of Florida: Centuries of Stories, was released in January 2020, I am pleased that many organizations throughout the state and nation have invited me to present my PowerPoint book talk highlighting some stories with about 100 photographs selected from the 716 in the book. The audience meets contemporary Floridian Jews who contribute much to the quality of life.

January 15, 2021
There are a couple articles in this week’s issue that use “antisemitism” rather than anti-Semitism. In fact, one writer insisted that Heritage use the spelling lowercased with no hyphen.
This led to the question “why?” and an interesting dig into the history of the words anti-Semitism and Semitism.
First, Heritage sought the answer by asking Marcia Jo Zerevitz, who used “antisemitism” in the article “January is Florida Jewish History Month.” She gladly supplied her answer:
“This is currently the appropriate scholarly way to spell the word, which was coined in 1879 by Wilhelm Marr, a German journalist who wished to distinguish his non-religious, politically active brand of hatred for the Jews from its predecessors. This is the same year he promoted the concept that all Jews must be removed by force from Germany, as “they were a threat.” ....
