    It’s still a stretch to consider young Americans not recalling the name of a place antisemitic. The article only briefly mentions at the end about the educational requirements for US schools on teaching about the holocaust and it varies state by state. Certainly not enough info to declare this is the cause of antisemitism.

      I’m not sure where you’re getting that it’s supposedly antisemitic to not know the names. The article talks about the rise of antisemitism being because of a lack of understanding about history, and points out the lack of education about it, by people not even knowing a single concentration camp.
