As the CEO and National Director of the Anti-Defamation League, Jonathan Greenblatt is on the front lines of todayâ€™s fight against rising antisemitism.

Greenblatt was in Cleveland on Monday for ADL Cleveland's Annual Meeting - where he joined Regional Director James Pasch and ADL Vice President of National Affairs George Selim, a Westlake native, for a conversation on the organization's work in fighting hate in all forms.

"We're living in a moment today when we seem more polarized than ever, when people are pitted against one another, that's deeply problematic for all of us," Greenblatt told 3News' Russ Mitchell in an exclusive broadcast interview.

The group's annual meeting was held the same day the FBI released new data, revealing more than seven thousand hate crimes were reported nationwide in 2021 â€“ a figure experts, including the Anti-Defamation League, say, is just a fraction of the true number due to lack of reporting from several major US cities and states.
