The History of
Antisemitism: The Crusades
Wednesday, September 27 | 6:00 PM ET
When Pope Urban II gave a sermon in November 1095 about
the “Holy Land,” he began the almost two-century-long military
campaigns that we now know as the Crusades. As they sought control
and territory, Crusaders massacred Jewish communities in France and Germany.
These actions and rhetoric fueled widespread antisemitism, including
specific conspiracies like blood libel.
