    While demanding freedom for Palestine isn’t antisemitic — in fact, it’s profoundly in line with Jewish values — this unequivocally is. Don’t vandalize Jewish institutions. Don’t blame Jews for the actions of the Israeli government. This is completely unacceptable.

    The Sholem-Aleichem Cultural Center in the Bronx was vandalized with "Free Palestine" graffiti. A Yiddish language cultural center, it's not a Zionist-related institution by a longshot.

    UPDATE: Even in their pain and grief, our Muslim partners changed the timing of the Washington Square vigil to 4:30PM to make it more accessible to Shabbat-observant Jews. We are overwhelmed by this generous invitation to our community, and we loudly and fully answer their call.

    Today, on Tisha B’Av, #JewsAgainstICE are taking action to say #NeverAgainIsNOW. Tisha B’Av is a Jewish day of mourning, and today we mourn for the people rounded up, torn from their families, thrown in cages, and deported by ICE.

    1200 New Yorkers, led by @JewishElders, marched through midtown in silence today to mourn the thousands of Palestinian children killed in Gaza these past months, and to demand a permanent #CeasefireNOW.

    We do not usually tweet on Shabbat but Gaza is in darkness and we have Internet access and the ability to post and appeal to the world. This brutal siege must stop. Not in our name. #LetGazaLive

    I have been trying to reach my family in Gaza for hours with no success. All telecommunications and internet have been cut, while Israeli strikes is literally destroying Gaza from air land and sea. How many more innocent people: children, parents and grandparents will be murdered

    🧵: The implication of Biden’s statement that Jewish safety is dependent on the state of Israel is that diaspora Jews can’t depend on our own govts to keep us safe where we live. To say this of Israel now also implies that our safety requires oppressing others. This is a lie. 1/

    True justice would mean #GeorgeFloyd was still alive. It would mean we’d not have had to wait for this verdict with bated breath, so fearful that yet again a cop would get away with murdering a Black man. May this verdict bring even some small sense of peace to the Floyd family.

    Spotted in Borough Park 🥰🤩 #JewsForZohran
    Photo of two flyers posted in Borough Park. One in Yiddish explains why people should not vote for Andrew Cuomo, the other also in Yiddish is in support of Zohran Mamdani.

    #JewsAgainstICE are gathering in NYC right now. Today is Tisha B’av, a day of mourning in the Jewish tradition. We gather to mourn the lives lost & destroyed as our government, with willing corporate partners, terrorizes immigrants andlocks people in concentration camps.

    This extreme escalation is an egregious violation of first amendment rights. Now is the moment for everyone to speak out and oppose this as fiercely and loudly as possible.
    This weekend, DHS targeted and seized Mahmoud Khalil as punishment for his political speech, and indicated that they are revoking his green card. They have since handed him over to ICE where he is being detained — his location unknown — and held for deportation without due process. 

This is what fascist governments do, and it will not stop here. This extreme escalation is the test case; the Trump/Musk administration is trying to see how far they can go without public outrage and legal checks on their power. Now is the moment to speak out and oppose this as fiercely and loudly as possible.

    Jews are forming a protective perimeter around our Muslim siblings as they prepare to pray. We keep each other safe. #IftarInTheStreets
