German Jews protesting the genocide have been specifically targeted for repression because they “get in the way of the narrative.” bostonreview.net/articles/antis…

German police arrested Udi Raz in 2024 for holding a sign that read “Jews against genocide.” He said, “Would it have been alright with you if it said “Jews in Favor of Genocide?” The police reportedly “manhandled him even more fiercely” as a result. According to Iris Hefets, herself arrested for holding a similar sign in 2023, Jews have been specifically targeted for arrest because they “get in the way of the narrative.” bostonreview.net/articles/antis… x.com/redstreamnet/s…

“How did a word originally intended to justify the exercise of state power over a long-persecuted Jewish minority come to serve as a tool for justifying the power of the Jewish state to persecute vulnerable and stateless Palestinians?” @BostonReview bostonreview.net/articles/antis…

As I shared in the Boston Review: we’re building a movement to change lives and build a lasting coalition of the multiracial working class. We’ve got no choice but to fight for bold policies that will make a real difference for everyday people. We need to meet this political moment. That means being unafraid to support Medicare for All, building an economy that works for everyone, and abolishing ICE. I'll never stop fighting for a healthier, safer, and more affordable St. Louis for all of us.
