We can’t just ignore Kanye—
we can’t just ignore the rise in antisemitism
we can’t just ignore antisemitic signs over a highway
we can’t just ignore antisemitic monologues on national television
we can’t just ignore our graves being vandalized
Ignoring hate gets Jews killed.
Tom Frauenhofer retweeted
Just because you don’t understand why something is antisemitic doesn’t mean its not.
It means you need to educate yourself of the tropes, conspiracies, and hate Jews face.
Tom Frauenhofer retweeted
Furthering Jewish stereotypes, even when they seem on their face positive, makes Jews less safe.

A teacher in Austin Texas calmly expressed his white supremacist ideology to Black students in his class.
This is the reason why we need reparations and an anti-Black racism hate crime bill

#Kristallnacht happened in November 9 1938.
In one night 91 Jews were murdered by Nazis.
30,000 Jewish men were then kidnapped and sent to concentration camps.
After, 638 people committed suicide.
Never again can we accept hate as the norm for Jews.

Our successful lawsuit in Texas, filed just last night, helped remove an election official who allowed harassment of Black voters. That lawsuit was possible b/c of a tip to the @866OURVOTE #ElectionProtection hotline. We're standing in the breach to help voters. Call 866-OUR-VOTE
.@DamonTHewitt is part of a team at @LawyersComm that filed an emergency lawsuit in Texas against white poll workers for intimidating Black voters.
"When the casualness of racism is weaponized in the electoral process, that leads to voter suppression if we don't stand up."

I will always stand up for working families - tackle inflation, lower costs, make more sh*t in America.
Dr. Oz won’t.
It’s really that simple.

It was rightly pointed out to be that I neglected to mention one of the most unprecedented licensed comics prior to Star Wars, namely Jack Kirby's 2001: A Space Odyssey, loosely based on the 1969 Stanley Kubrick movie which in turn was based on the writings of Arthur C. Clarke.
