From the Frontlines: Behind the Scenes at "In Concert Against Hate"

"From the Frontlines" is an ADL podcast which brings listeners to the frontline in the battle against antisemitism and hate. Thirty years ago, ADL’s Washington office created a very special event which eventually became known as “In Concert Against Hate.” It has grown and morphed over the years, but the basic idea remains the same: People coming together to enjoy beautiful music, to lift up heroes in the fight against antisemitism and all forms hate and to be in community as part of the shared struggle to battle this age old scourge. This year’s Concert was held on November 18th at the Kennedy Center. Meredith Weisel joined this podcast to provide an exclusive behind-the-scenes look at the details of this year's concert and what goes into making it happen. She is the Regional Director of ADL's Washington DC office and is the ringleader for this special event.
