I was honored to attend last week’s The White House roundtable on antisemitism — and I’m heartened that the administration is now launching an inter-agency group to combat antisemitism and other forms of hate. Full Karine Jean-Pierre statement —>
Grateful to have been a part of the The White House roundtable on antisemitism today with the Douglas Emhoff, Susan Rice, Ambassador Deborah Lipstadt, & other key admin leaders. The fight against increasingly normalized antisemitism is at the core of the fight against antidemocratic extremism.
IFA’s Amy Spitalnick spoke to The Associated Press on the normalization of antisemitism:
“What’s even more dangerous than Nazis with torches chanting ‘Jews will not replace us’ is political leaders espousing those same conspiracy theories in increasingly normalized ways” abcnews.go.com/US/wireStory/a…
There’s still a lot to learn. But today is #TransDayOfRemembrance — and five people were just murdered at a gay club, at a moment when the LGBTQ community is increasingly targeted with vile, dehumanizing policies and rhetoric.
Tonight marks 84 yrs since #Kristallnacht . And while yesterday’s rejection of many extremist candidates & policies should give us real hope, our fight against fascism & hate here is just getting started.
I’m joining Chicago’s Anshe Emet tonight to discuss ansheemet.org/events/kristal…
84 years ago tonight, Nazi mobs throughout Germany & Austria smashed the windows of Jewish businesses—showering the streets with broken glass and terrorizing the community.
Truly commemorating #Kristallnacht requires us to recommit to fight fascism & antisemitism here at home.
