The letter @ReverendWarnock signed was from a delegation of US Black and South African church leaders who traveled to Israel and Palestine together, part of a long history of Black transnational solidarity with people struggling against systematic racism in all its forms. https://twitter.com/J_Insider/status/1324524237793697793
Republicans & pro-Israel groups who try to use @ReverendWarnock's past solidarity with Palestinians against him will be appealing to the evangelical voters who Trump has openly admitted are the real beneficiaries of his pro-Israel policy, not the safety or interest of US Jews
Black solidarity with the US Jewish community comes from the same place as Black solidarity with Palestinians, the collective need to oppose oppression in all its forms and work together for better world. You cannot attack one while claiming to support the other
