I this. Trump can't reduce Judaism to support for Israeli apartheid.

Defiling Torah scrolls to torment and scare and demean has happened since the time the scrolls were first written and revered. This is an old violence and it hurts both because those that do it are emulating a past I still grieve and are rejecting a future I desperately seek.https://twitter.com/jvplive/status/1206288704819458048 …

We must transcend the conflation of antisemitism and antizionism if we are to change the balance of power away from Israeli apartheid and toward Palestinian freedom. We must also ensure that our fight vs. white supremacist antisemitism remains central.https://twitter.com/jvplive/status/1206244355394035712 …

I am not going to lie: I am terrified by watching Dems stand with Trump and his evangelical, white nationalist, antisemitic base to collude in targeting Palestinian students fight for their freedom and liberation.

I am truly sick watching Trump sign this dangerous EO and have an evangelical pastor talking about him on the "right side of God". We are in trouble.

The real antisemites who threaten Jewish students are white supremacists with guns, not those that criticize Israel. The goal we must proclaim is: we are seeking Palestinian rights to freedom and dignity just as we support the rights of Jews to freedom and dignity. END

Reducing BDS to a free speech issue alone in fact allows the movement to continue to be delegitimized.

In response, it is imperative that Jewish communal leaders do all they can to clean up this mess. This includes saying unequivocally that Palestinian calls for campaigns for thier own freedom--including BDS-- are fair game, and not only as a matter of free speech

We must look at how we got here. And honestly, the Jewish institutional community has played a deeply problematic role, including aligning with Trump and evangelical white Christians, and the “both sides” messengers out a misplaced sense of safety and self-interest.

This EO is bad for Jews, no question, but the real impact of it will be felt by Palestinian students on campuses who will be silence and reprimanded for speaking up for thier freedom. This is unacceptable.

This is what was behind the Muslim Ban and the executive order as well. All non-white Christians are lesser and “Other”—and we know where this leads. To marginalization, exclusion, and, ultimately to ethnic cleansing.

We must be careful about the ways this can be used by those who believe and are seeking to promote white Christians are the only real American citizens.

I am concerned though, that through this EO, Trump is playing into the hands of white nationalists, an in effect promoting a brand of ethnonationalism that is premised on a hierarchy of nationalities.

Because reality is, we are also targeted based on perceived shared ethnic characteristics. We want our civil rights agencies to protect against that, even though the statute does not spell it out.

The Jewish nationality designation in Trump’s EO is tricky: on the one hand, it is important the civil rights act be modified to include the reality that Jews are subject to discrimination, violence and harassment based not solely on our religious identity. THREAD
