Anti-Jewish hate crimes and bias incidents in Maryland have increased by 60% last year, according to the American Jewish Community (AJC).
There were 77 antisemitic incidents in 2022 and 48 in 2021, according to a 2022 Maryland Department of State Police Hate Bias Report.
“These figures demonstrate that we need to take concrete steps to confront antisemitism; the time for simply talking about it has long passed,” Alan Ronkin, American Jewish Committee Regional director, stated in a news release.
