It is a bewildering & alarming time to be a Jew, both because antisemitism is rising & because so many politicians are responding to it not by protecting Jews but by victimising Palestinians. Conflating antisemitism and anti-Zionism is a tragic mistake. https://www.theguardian.com/news/2019/mar/07/debunking-myth-that-anti-zionism-is-antisemitic
Jews are grossly outnumbered and last year there were more hate crimes against Jews reported by the ADL than reported since recording began in 1979.
Why are we not talking about it? Jews are 2% of the population, yet the victim of 57.8% of religion-based hate crimes.
We must all be outraged by injustice and stand up against antisemitism, anti-Palestinianism, racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, and all injustice against anyone.
Stand up. Speak up. For Jewish people, for Black people, for all people who are targeted for who they are. Thanks to http://instagram.com/ilanawols for these images found here: https://www.instagram.com/p/CCtKj9PpEWu/
