Chloé Valdary: How Would You Respond to BDS?

As part of the increasing focus of Americans for Peace and Tolerance on countering the hostile campus environment for Israel and its supporters, we have partnered with an outstanding student leader, Chloé Valdary, to produce a short video which features her powerful call to action against anti-Jewish bigotry.

Chloé is a Christian Zionist whose solidarity with Israel is born out of the shared histories of struggle against oppression by both Jews and black Americans. While a student at the University of New Orleans, she founded the student group Allies of Israel. After graduating, she co-founded the new campus-focused Israel advocacy group, Here Is Israel. Here is Israel is behind the viral music video “Boycott Israel,” which exposes the hypocrisy behind the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement against Israel. When she heard of a BDS conference being held at Brooklyn College in New York, she felt compelled to speak out about the parallels she sees between BDS and the Nazi boycotts against Jews in the 1930s. We were inspired by Chloé’s clear moral message to produce this video with the goal that it reaches a broader audience.
