My question is - HOW COULD YOU NOT???

For all of the - “not this effing white person”—>>>>>

This isn't about individual character—but a system that benefits white people as a group. Your responsibility is to actively dismantle it, not just avoid being a bigot!

When speaking on such a touchy issue I don’t believe it right for anyone who isn’t Jewish to speak on anything Jewish related especially Anti semitism, Anti Zionist and the list goes on.

That was my entire point. The more misinformation / propaganda that’s push the less Jewish people feel safe.

Be honest! Is that what I wrote- NO!! Not by a country mile! Twisting words in your favor will mot work!

I’m noting that —this is not brand new!

It’s only been relevant in your world. Do you ever look up from your lies and stretching the truth —that is a lived experience for many—you knucklehead!

No Kings' Day protesting is as American as apple pie.

What's not American is bailing out Argentina with 20 billion dollars while military members wait in line at food banks.

Yes. Black people are the only people to speak about racism. Other can show support but not speak for them.

Same thing goes for sexism and homosexuality.

Have you asked a Black person? Have you discussed it with them? I have.

And that’s where I get my information.

The only one gaslighting is themselves to us. Thankfully we are immune to their bullshit

And it makes you want to smack the hell out of their stupid azzzzz, esp those that don’t see that’s exactly what they want - a Black cleanup crew - be the mop you want or go straight the h3ll.

It’s been happening to Black people for centuries in America but only care because it’s happening to you. And that’s beyond f’d up.

Your response screams white privilege. No one could say that unless they were white. No one. Which discounts every inhumane thing and situation Black people gone through to BUILD this country. shut up!

How cute Gavin a white person thought they were going to gaslight me with racism accusation on a thread where multiple Black people recognize the obvious gaslighting sherrilyn is doing and think I’m going to be phased by them. People in America are predictable and I am quite immune to bs unlike them

That some guy has a name; It’s Jay, my friend and he’s right. Per the Order of succession the VP would be next in line. Next time learn something factual before opening your mouth. Please.

If you’re not Jewish, you do not speak for them on what is and isn’t hateful to them.

Wikipedia is user driven which means anyone can put anything on there and a lot of it is not sourced but that’s beside the point.

I wonder if Sherrilyn felt this way when pro-Pallies protested Rosalynn Carter's funeral, attacked Black Dems at a holiday party, or disrupted a service at Emanuel AME that was a memorial to the people Dylan Roof murdered.

Sherrilyn Ifill @sifill.bsky.social · 1d

I can’t help but think today about how many young people were savaged on social media, branded as anti-semites and abandoned by their schools for daring to call for a ceasefire. I remember saying that it was the first time I can remember that calling for ceasefire was regarded as a hostile demand.
