Learn why this concerning trend isn’t just a matter of concern to the Jewish community, but a direct threat to democracy and national security. Gain insights into how the U.S. Department of State, and the U.S. government in general, are addressing Jew-hatred around the world and why a comprehensive, whole-of-society approach is more critical now than ever before.
Don’t miss this opportunity to be informed, engaged, and empowered to counter antisemitism.
@shekinahcancook Thanks for sharing this. I find it odd that a briefing about how antisemitism is bad for everybody, not just Jews, specifically targets Jews as its audience. I can think of a lot of non-Jews who need this more.
It’s always Republicans who whine about how government doesn’t work and then they vote all these people in there that do nothing but try to gum it up.
She should spend some time learning how government works: creates bills with substance, gets them passed, the basics.
Maybe this gives some of that side of the aisle some idea that they can deny MAGA. And how much easier it would have been had they supported the impeachments.
@TonyStark I just see that as MAGA strategy though. Muck it up on purpose and blame the other side. If government works, their constituents might end up liking it. Can't have that.
If white folk in Louisiana think two Black-majority districts - fair representation - is "affirmative action by redistricting," maybe we should reconsider our current system of "affirmative action by electoral college" that actually gives extra weight to rural states.
Years ago, I went to Poland to see where the Powazeks came from. Dad and I took a tour of one of the camps where our family was killed. The tour guide asked us if we were Polish or Jewish. "Both," I said. "You can't be both," he said flatly. This was in the early 2000s.
This is how the Poles could kill us. Help the nazis send us to camps. Take our homes. We weren't part of "us."
Today: Republican Ron Johnson reminds us that Jews in America are also not "us."
I’d really rather be posting about the 2024 elections and climate news and other things I enjoy but since the Fediverse just gets more and more comfortable with Jew hatred, not less, and people stay dead silent about it, this is where it is.
Heard the next door neighbor demanding the pest control service douse her house with more pesticidea because of "spiders leaving cobwebs on the outside".
"For Columbia’s president, Nemat Shafik, a hearing on antisemitism went relatively well. But on campus, intense protests suggest a difficult road ahead for the university."
