The term "pogrom" refers specifically to the organized and violent attacks on Jewish communities in Russia during the late 19th and early 20th centuries. This was a form of anti-Semitic violence that targeted Jews for their religious and ethnic identity, and was often carried out with the support or complicity of the state or local authorities. The other terms listed (diaspora, ghettos, anti-Semitism) are related to Jewish history and culture, but do not specifically refer to the phenomenon of pogroms.
