Viral Video of Antisemitic Chants on Senior Trip Prompts Official Condemnation

Institutions pledge DAIA-led training following widespread official condemnation.

Overview

  • Footage recorded on September 10 in Bariloche surfaced publicly on September 28 after X user Dani Lerer shared it, propelling the case into national attention.
  • Students from Escuela Humanos are heard chanting “Hoy quemamos judíos” on a bus while a Baxtter coordinator appears to encourage them, and a traveling parent is also seen participating.
  • Escuela Humanos issued statements repudiating the conduct, said it contacted DAIA for training and a review, and noted measures are under evaluation with no public sanctions announced yet.
  • Baxtter rejected the chants in an official message and pledged steps to prevent a repeat of such behavior on future trips.
  • President Javier Milei posted “Repudiable. Fin” and tagged key ministers, and attorney Jorge Monastersky filed a complaint seeking identification of the students, the coordinator, and the parent present.
