I wonder if AAPI month and JAHM are the same month because Asian Americans and Jewish Americans share the model minority myth

HONORING JEWISH AMERICAN HERITAGE MONTH!

by Danna Zeiger Dear Kidlit Community,Unfortunately, Writers’ Rumpus was not able to air this post earlier in the month for logistical reasons. For this, I would personally like to apologize to the Jewish Kidlit community, as I would have liked to have seen both AAPHI and JAHM honored together. There have been many community discussions highlighting the lack of JAHM recognition and awareness…

To celebrate JAHM, I wanted to share this graphic novel:

If your response to Jewish conspiracy theories is, "That makes no damn sense," there is a reason why! Here's how it all started:

1. Maurice Joly committed suicide, leaving behind copies of a thinly veiled attack he wrote against Napoleon III.

2. When two members of the court wanted to stir up anti-Semitism, they decided to forge a document "written by the elders of Israel" detailing their plot for domination.

3. Golovinski, the con-man they picked to write this document felt pressed for time, so he find/replaced key terms in Joly's text.

This is just the beginning of how a COMPLETELY fabricated document shaped the way that generations viewed and responded to people of Jewish heritage.
