This can’t still be happening. But it is.

[fromourperspective]

Maybe Jews aren’t “too much.” Maybe Jews are exhausted.

Exhausted from explaining why Holocaust jokes, “6 million wasn’t enough,” conspiracy theories, blood libels, collective blame, and dehumanization are hate.

People keep telling Jews we’re dramatic, manipulative, sensitive, “playing the victim,” or looking for antisemitism.

Meanwhile Jews are opening social media and seeing it every day.

Repeated exposure to hate changes people psychologically.

Hypervigilance. Fear. Exhaustion. Isolation.

Hineni. We are still here. L’dor v’dor.

Fran Drescher has never shied away from owning her Jewish identity with pride. From her earliest interviews to her decades-long career in entertainment and activism, she has always celebrated where she comes from, and refused to shrink her Jewish identity in the face of bigotry. Her words, “Humor is a Jewish way of surviving,” speak to a deeper truth: Jewish resilience is not accidental. It’s cultural, historical, and intentional. We refuse to disappear or be broken no matter what we face. Fran has consistently stood up for Jewish communities worldwide, speaking openly about her heritage and supporting the safety and dignity of Jews everywhere, including our ancestral homeland. She shows us what it looks like to be unapologetically proud, publicly and powerfully. Let her example inspire all of us: Be visible. Be vocal. Be proud. Stand with those who are fighting every day to ensure Jews can live openly and safely in every community.

‘You have failed your Jewish students’: #EndJewHatred holds rally in support of Shai Davidai, calls for Shafik’s resignation

<i>Updated on April 19 at 1:13 p.m.</i>

#EndJewHatred hosted a protest in support of Business School assistant professor Shai Davidai on Wednesday, calling on University President Minouche Shafik to resign for allegedly not doing enough to protect Jewish students.

The protest came hours after Shafik testified before the House Committee on Education and the Workforce in a hearing titled “Columbia in Crisis: Columbia University’s Response to Antisemitism.”

The protesters gathered at 5:30 p.m. at 116th Street and Broadway with Davidai and members of #EndJewHatred, a movement “centering on Jewish liberation from all forms of oppression and discrimination.” The protest drew over 200 Columbia and non-Columbia affiliates.

Davidai decided to host the protest with #EndJewHatred after it “became clear to us that the University is not going to allow us to organize a protest for the community,” he said in a speech at the protest.

He called for Shafik to “do the decent thing and step down” after repeatedly saying that Shafik had lied in her congressional testimony. He also stated that he would work with whomever came after Shafik to “make sure that the Jewish community, the Israeli community, and the non-Jewish community that believes that Hamas is bad will be safe.”

Gabi Schiller, one of the speakers at the protest, also condemned Shafik’s testimony, saying that she threw Davidai “under the bus.”

“Now we finally see the tip of the iceberg of this institutional rot of antisemitism thanks to these congressional hearings which Columbia President Shafik showed with absolute clarity that she is a moral failure to this institution,” Schiller said. “President Shafik, we will not allow Shai Davidai to be your sacrificial lamb.”

In regard to a recent petition to fire Davidai, which has garnered almost 9,000 signatures as of Thursday night, as well as other complaints posted on social media and sent to Columbia, Davidai said that he is not concerned for himself but rather for the Jewish and Israeli community. He emphasized that the protest was not about him but instead in support of the “Jewish fight” and “the decent American fight against terrorism.”

“Columbia thinks that it can take these complete lies, turn them into investigation, and silence me or fire me and then I go away. Like no, I don’t go away,” Davidai said. “You can fire me, but you can’t silence me.”

Davidai outlined the outcomes he hoped would result from the protest, implying the first to be the resignation of Shafik. He said he wants the Columbia chapters of Students for Justice in Palestine and Jewish Voice for Peace to be expelled and removed from campus. Davidai also stated that “all these indoctrinators,” referring to certain professors and faculty advisors, needed to be “sanctioned.”

Davidai ended his list of demands by saying that every organization that has signed on to Columbia University Apartheid Divest should have 24 hours to denounce CUAD, and if they do not, they should be disbanded and removed from campus.

These two terrorists murdered 4 Jews yesterday and injured more just because they woke up with the intention to kill.

One of them is 19, the other is 20. They grew up indoctrinated by hatred.

One of them attacked people with an ax, the other one with an automated gun.

Being a target in your own home country each and every day aka being a target for being a Jew in Israel goes against anyone's basic human rights.

They are from a city Jenin that is entirely led and governed by the Palestinian Authority (aka a government that has a pay-to-slay policy in motion: kill a Jew and you get a financial allowance)

This is what hinders peace, nothing else.

This is your daily reminder to learn your Jewish history with pride. We renounce Jewish hate in all its twisted forms.

Chanan Burstein, a Jewish man who runs a small business, met with a potential client.  After the meeting, feeling excited about a potential business opportunity, he opened his email to find a hate-filled message, to boycott his company. The reason: Because Chanan is Jewish.  This is a product of a much deeper systemic problem that exists when Antisemitism becomes normalized.
