Has Lilith Mag run a piece on your initiatives before, or, is there any space for some reciprocal marketing there? I feel like there *has* to be a way, and their readership is pretty massive. Hopefully, all the amazing Jews youre highlighting are mobilizing their networks for you too! I tag never alone book club literally 5 times a day (at minimum), and I will plug it forever.
All of this is achievable, and I keep you and your holy work in my prayers, and I am doing what *little* I can do help. Your ability to do all of this as the world crumbles astounds me.
Have I shared with you how my mind “sees” relational dynamics as geometric shapes? (I thought everyone’s did, but have since learned it’s a neurodivergent quirk.)
Anyhow, in my mind’s eye, I’ve been constantly seeing the Jewish community rising up and over and above our country’s toxic polarization, which I see as a line stretched between two points, those two points seemingly ever-increasing in their distance from the center, EXCEPT when antisemitism pulls both points back together, threatening to crush us, BUT we rise over and above this line, forming a new point overhead—a triangle or a mountain!
Your magazine cover resonates. My mental image isn’t a fleshed out one like your gorgeous phoenix rising, but it is structurally the same! I take this as evidence that many of us are bursting with similar energy and vision and yes—we just need to bring them all in.
LOVE the artwork. I’ll be working on a contribution soon—I’ve been thinking and I’m onto an idea! ❤️
“In exactly the same vein, I can’t believe that when measures are finally, finally taken against Columbia for allowing so much violent anti-Semitism to run rampant all over their campus, it’s in the form of the Trump regime using us as pawns to go after higher education, withholding federal funds desperately needed by researchers and scientists — a great many of them Jews. The cherry on top? This hole will be easily filled by Qatar, screwing us from both sides as usual.”
I don’t think scientists and researchers are going to build their careers on Qatari grants. And why can’t Columbia go into its endowment (15 billion) at least temporarily. It’s not nice for researchers to lose their funding but in all seriousness Columbia had since October 8 2023 to get it right and we all know they didn’t. There is no leverage like money. Do you not understand that the Obama admin used the same threat of defunding universities to get the Title 9 provisions of campus rape enforced on all campuses. It’s not that these provisions were good. Well here Columbia was warned by alumni and Jewish professors that they were seriously out of compliance with titles 6 and 7. Yet they did nothing.
Hello, I love your columns and I share them as widely as I can. In fact we're using your latest column as a frame for discussion at our next anti-semitism support group at our synagogue.
I'm sure you've heard of this group, but I just want to put it there for you in terms of creating alliances. Zioness attracts a lot of younger people. https://zioness.org/

Gorgeous image for the cover.

BOOM! This!!!!
I am definitely interested in this magazine!
Thank you, brother.

Not sad.
