Report Antisemitism

If you have experienced or witnessed antisemitism, you are not alone. Here is what to do, and how AIC can help.

Step 1

Report It to the Authorities.

Antisemitic threats, harassment, vandalism, and assault are crimes. Reporting builds the record that lets law enforcement act and lets the community see the true scale of what is happening.

  • Local police: for an incident or a crime that is not an emergency, contact your local police department's non-emergency line.
  • The FBI: for a suspected hate crime, report to tips.fbi.gov or call 1-800-CALL-FBI (1-800-225-5324).

Step 2

Document What Happened.

Details fade and posts get deleted. As soon as you are able, write down and save:

  • The date, time, and place.
  • Photos or screenshots of vandalism, messages, posts, or emails.
  • What was said or done, in the words used, as exactly as you can recall.
  • Names or descriptions of anyone involved, and any witnesses.

Step 3

Tell AIC.

The Atlanta Israel Coalition is a grassroots community organization. We are not law enforcement and we do not investigate. But when the community knows what is happening, it can respond. Telling AIC lets us stand with you: amplify what you are facing, connect you with the right people, and bring the community's voice to bear. You decide how public your story is.

Report to AIC

Tell us what happened. Your report goes to a small AIC team. The box at the end that lets us share it, without your contact details, with partner security and research organizations starts ticked. Untick it and your report stays with AIC.

What kind of incident was it?

Pick all that fit.

In your own words. What was said or done, as exactly as you remember it, and who was there.

When did it happen?
Where did it happen?

For something online, tell us where you live.

Only if it helps. It stays with AIC and is never shared.

Evidence (optional)

Up to 3, JPEG or PNG, 8 MB each. We remove the location and camera details from every photo before we store it.

Have you told any of these?
How can we reach you? (optional)

You can report without giving your name. Leave an email or phone number only if you want us to be able to reply.

What AIC may do with your report

Each box is separate, and you can untick any of them.

Shared means two things. The security and research organizations AIC works with can get your account of what happened, with your name, email, phone number, and street address taken out. And the incident can become one de-identified point on a community threat map: the city and the state, never the street and never you. Either way a person at AIC reads it first. Untick the box and your report stays with AIC.

The last two need an email or phone number above.

You can unsubscribe anytime. Your report reaches us either way. Read past issues (opens in a new tab) ↗

Questions About Reporting

Should I report to the police or to AIC?

Both, and the authorities first for anything criminal. Antisemitic threats, harassment, vandalism, and assault are crimes. Report them to your local police (call 911 in an emergency), and report a suspected hate crime to the FBI at tips.fbi.gov. Then tell AIC, so the community knows what is happening and can stand with you.

What does AIC do when I report something?

AIC is a grassroots community organization, not law enforcement, and we do not investigate. When you tell us, we can amplify what you are facing, connect you with the right people, and bring the community’s voice to bear. Nothing leaves AIC until one of us has read your report and cleared it. You decide how public your story is.

How do I report to AIC?

Use the form on this page, or email Shalom@atlantaisrael.org. First, save what you can: the date, time, and place, plus any photos, screenshots, or witness details.

Go to the form
Who sees my report?

A small AIC team reads every report. The box that lets us share it with partner security and research organizations starts ticked, and untick it to keep your report with AIC. Shared either way, we leave out your name, email, and phone number unless you tick the separate box that allows those to go too.

Can I report without giving my name?

Yes. Your name, email, and phone number are all optional. Without them we cannot reply to you, so keep the reference number the form gives you.
