Are you wondering, with all these murders against Jews, with all this discrimination going on, antisemitism everywhere, etc. what you can do if you're not Jewish?

The answer is: SPEAK UP!

When you see someone in your friend group, or your workplace say something antisemitic, SPEAK UP!

Will you possibly lose friends? You might, but then, do you really want Nazi friends?

"But what if, in response to your speaking up, they talk about Gaza?" - They sure might, but do you live in the Middle East, or does the antisemitism you're hearing effect Jews in the US, Canada, the UK, Germany, or some other country on another continent?

If so, SPEAK UP! Because the Jews where you live need support.

Standing up is hard! It takes courage. Standing up means using your privilege as a non-Jew to stand up to hate.

It means being uncomfortable, and making people who spout hate uncomfortable. It means making waves and rocking the boat.

But you can do it. I know you can.

The war on uterus owners is in full swing, with abortion bans and forced birth policies causing a significant increase in maternal and infant mortality.

A woman in Tennessee was denied pre natal care for being unwed.

The Trump regime just announced it would incinerate $10 million in oral contraceptives rather than provide them to those in need, and Republicans are trying to pass a law banning women from flushing their miscarriages.

A woman in South Carolina was recently arrested for a miscarriage because she placed the fetal remains in the garbage. The hospital called child protective services on her.

My latest talks about my own battle with bodily autonomy and why I think things have become more worse:

Not surprised, and interesting how certain LinkedIn vendor did not mention this in that one "LinkedIn Learning" presentation at a certain college event.

I stand in solidarity with the #lgbtq community and strongly support equal rights and respect for all individuals, regardless of their #sexualorientation #genderidentity, or expression.

I believe everyone should be free to live authentically and safely without fear of #discrimination #prejudice or #Violence Any one who is #bigoted towards any #minority groups, and/or LGBTQ people should be #educated on the #history and the #discrimination and prejudice these groups received in history.
