Antisemitism is when a person or group of people don't like Jewish people. Over the centuries, antisemitism has caused a lot of hate and violence against Jewish people. Here's a timeline of the most important moments in the history of antisemitism:
1) In the 1400s, Jews were forced out of Spain, ending centuries of Jewish life there.
2) In the 1500s, Jews were killed in Hungary and Poland during uprisings called "pogroms."
3) In the 1700s-1800s, Jews in Europe faced job discrimination, were forced to wear special clothing and were not allowed to own land.
4) In the 1800s-1900s, Jews were falsely blamed for Germany's economic problems and the basis for Adolf Hitler's rise to power.
5)In 1941, the Nazis established the death camp Auschwitz-Birkenau and began systematically murdering millions of Jews in what is known as the Holocaust.
6) In 1947, the United Nations adopted the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, affirming the right of all people to be free from discrimination.
7) In the 1950s-present, there has been a rise in antisemitic attacks around the world, including acts of violence like shootings and bombings.
