The persistence of an old anti-Semitic myth: The dark legacy and ongoing body count of an ancient anti-Semitic myth

theatlantic.com/newsletters/archive/2024/04/the-persistence-of-an-old-anti-semitic-myth/678184/

Quick Glance: The Legacy of an Ancient Anti-Semitic Myth

Mary Antin recounts the false accusations against Jews regarding the Passover festival in a 1911 article in The Atlantic.

The 'blood libel', rooted in medieval beliefs, continues to have deadly consequences, exemplified by the case of Russian Jew Menachem Mendel Beilis.

Contemporary dissemination of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories about Jewish ritual murders persists, as evidenced by recent events.

Despite the historical backdrop, the Passover celebration remains a traditional festival unrelated to the false accusations.

Flame is lit for Paris 2024 in choreographed event in the birthplace of the ancient Olympics

cnn.com/2024/04/16/sport/paris-2024-olympic-flame-lit-spt-intl/

Quick Glance: Paris Olympics Flame Lit in Greek Cradle Amid Weather Challenges

Despite the absence of Apollo, the flame for the Paris Olympics was ignited at the site of the ancient games in southern Greece on Tuesday.

A backup flame was used as cloudy skies prevented the traditional lighting, where an actress dressed as an ancient Greek priestess typically uses the sun to ignite a silver torch.

The flame will be carried by torchbearers from Olympia for over 5000 kilometers through Greece before being handed over to the Paris Games organizers in Athens on April 26.

The Belem, a French three-masted sailing ship, will transport the Olympic flame from Greece to Marseille, arriving on May 8 after visiting the historic site of Olympia.
