| Â | Anti-Semitism Worldwide 1999/2000 - Poland |
| | The small village of Dmosin in central Poland reacted to a proposal in spring 2000 to name an elementary school after the poet Jan Brzechwa with a letter-writing campaign, supported by the local parish priest, protesting the notion of naming a school after a “poet of Jewish origin,” whose original name was Lesman. | | | The leading and most vitriolic anti-Semitic publications are Szczerbiec (Sword), the monthly of Odrodzenie Narodowe Polski and Internet bulletins (some affiliated with parties, others independent) such as Krucjata (Crusade), Jestem Polakiem (I Am a Pole), Rozpoznaj Zydow (Recognize the Jews) and Zydzi przestancie klamac (Jews Stop Lying). | | | In May 2000 the latter ran a story vigorously protesting the findings of Jan Tomasz Gross’ book Sasiedzi (Neighbors), which detailed the July 1941 massacre of some 1,600 Jews in the town of Jedwabne (near Lomza) carried out by local Poles. |
