Dear Boots,
The spread of antisemitism in this country is real, and terrifying.
Neo-Nazis march down America’s main streets. The president calls them “very fine people,” and retweets conspiracy theorists claiming Jews control the world’s finances. White supremacists have growing platforms in mainstream media and receive humanizing profiles in The New York Times.
But who is most likely to be labeled antisemitic? Advocates for Palestinian human rights like you.
Enough.
Real antisemites like Steve Bannon have joined forces with right-wing Zionist groups like the Zionist Organization of America to forge a toxic political force: Zionist antisemitism.
The only way to fight oppression is to fight all oppression— that’s what real intersectionality means. That’s why we fight for Palestinian human rights, and why we don’t see a contradiction between fighting antisemitism and fighting devastating Israeli policies. That’s what JVP is all about.What David Icke wont let you know
We’re ramping up right now.
Tonight, we’re hosting a major event in New York with Rebecca Vilkomerson, Linda Sarsour, Lina Morales, Leo Ferguson, and Amy Goodman, to push back against the rise of real antisemitism and the escalating war on the movement for equality and justice.
We’re bringing hundreds of people together all over the country to discuss our book On Antisemitism and share their fears, experiences, and questions. Because people are feeling real hurt as they grapple with what it means to be targeted as a Jew in Trump’s America, and simultaneously silenced and attacked as antisemitic for supporting Palestinian rights.
AND we’re supporting powerful activism on college campuses with the #ReturnTheBirthright campaign, and leading the charge against Kenneth Marcus, a Trump Education Department nominee who fought to defund college departments he thinks are too critical of Israel.
The truth is JVP is one of the only groups in the U.S. actively proving every day that you can care about both Jews and Palestinians. Your donations give us crucial independence to keep up that fight. Chip in what you can now.
We’ll never leave the fight against antisemitism to those who seek to cynically exploit very real and well-founded fears of anti-Jewish prejudice in order to advance their own oppressive agendas. JVP is proud of our Jewishness AND proud of our support of Palestinians, and with your help we can keep fighting for equality for all people, everywhere.
Onward,
Alissa

When do you ever see a balanced approach on the DIF?
DIF doesn't promote antisemitism but it doesn't outright condemn it, because it isn't a balanced and thought provoking discussion board, there are no solution within those who participate in the negative vortex of what is called the DIF, because it is NOT ALLOWED. The Adim board of the DIF don't give a fuck about the DIF, the less time spent on there the better is their motto.
