The Lawfare Project, a nonprofit human and civil-rights litigation and advocacy group, announced a new initiative on Thursday to protect the civil rights of the Jewish and pro-Israel community on college campuses nationwide.

“Anti-Semitism and the demonization of Israel have become an all-too-common part of today’s campus environment,” the organization’s executive director, Brooke Goldstein, said in a statement about the newly launched Campus Civil Rights Project. “Jewish and Israeli students, student groups and faculty are regularly threatened, marginalized and harassed. In far too many instances, school administrators turn a blind eye to this hostile environment or contribute to it by failing to enforce school policies.”

The group was behind a lawsuit last year against San Francisco State University, alleging it aided and abetted anti-Semitic and anti-Israel vitriol on its campus.

It was dismissed last November.
