[quote=Anonymous]Racism, anti-semitism, misogyny and white supremacy go hand in hand. Sometimes we see one particular face of it --Dylan Roof's racism or the anti-asian hate of the man who killed 8 people yesterday or the Pulse shooting or attacks on Muslims or the Tree of Life massacre--but dont let that blind you to the fact that persecution and hate crimes are on the rise everywhere, and that all of us who abhor this disease must join forces.  Its not an either/or. Its an And. We have a serious problem in this country with radicalized conservative christian white men who join communities that propagate hate with varying (and sometimes multiple) targets and who have a terrifying access to guns. We also have a problem with media that allows and perpetuates race baiting and deadly misinformation.

Finally, I think DEI is different than what we are talking about here, which is standing up to hate crimes. DEI are principles and tools designed to combat inequities in varied systems that result in diminished economic professional academic etc opportunities. For the most part, American Jews (and I am one) have suffered far less of these inequities than many other minorities. We continue to be targets of hate crimes, which is why we must join forces with all those who are victims of hate crimes and those who oppose hate crimes. [/quote]
