Gratitude to Jewish People Standing Up for Gaza

Your presence is valued and appreciated

It must be hard.

The trauma of the holocaust and the effects it’s had on your families.

The tough conversations. The strained relationships.

Standing up anyways.

I just want you to know how much I appreciate you, your voices, your actions.

You are the living proof that being anti-genocide is not the same as being anti-semitic.

“Never again.” You know that was meant for everyone.

I hope you’re hearing this from others, because my sense is that yours is a lonely and difficult journey much of the time.

Thank you. For standing up for what is right when there is so much money, power and historical wounding against you.

Thank you.
