I am not the first Black lesbian rabbi, and I have never claimed to be the first Black lesbian rabbi. Published sources that say this are wrong. Also, I was never a Christian and was not raised as a Christian. Published sources that say that are also wrong. Please retweet/share

Nothing says "but marriage fixed it" like being reminded that I have to do a confirmatory adoption to adopt my own kiddo (please Gd may they arrive in good time).

Let me know when we get to the scene where #McCarthy has a change of heart and learns #Jazz piano. #Speakerofthehousevote #GroundhogDay

One impact of the #georgesantos controversy: actual Jewish People of Color will face extra scrutiny and identity probing when running for office or other positions. There are already emails from Jewish journalists floating around saying that they need to probe POC who run more.

Moments ago I spoke to Brittney Griner. She is safe. She is on a plane. She is on her way home.

From the book of F*ck Around and Find Out, @MaNishtana brings you chapter 11, verses 1-50. Informative. Helpful. Engaging. Rating: ✡️✡️✡️✡️✡️ #BlackJewsAreTired #Jews #Antisemitism #HebrewIsraelites #HebrewsToNegroes #Facts #FactsMatter

This is why we need to be clear that BHI ≠ Black Jews. And, already, our fellow Jews are using #Racism in their responses to this #Antisemitism, which erases and harms #JewsOfColor — including actual #BlackJews
Black Hebrew Israelites out in force today, chanting “we are the real Jews” and “time to wake up,” as they marched towards the Barclay’s Center in support of Kyrie Irving’s return.

This is like saying it would be better for Black Jews if we were white Jews. It’s racism while talking about racism and antisemitism. #AntiBlackRacism #Antisemitism #BlackJews #Jews #ThisIsNotTheAnswer
There are a lot of Jews scared right now as antisemitism is being normalized by celebrities, but I want to call special attention to Black Jews at this time, who are caught in such an uncomfortable space, making an already complicated identity that much more challenging.

You can’t sit there and tell me that no #Jews have contributed to #whitesupremacy “Because #theHolocaust”. There were Jews helping white supremacy long before, during, after, and currently. Now, does that warrant antisemitism? No. Is it right to help WS? Also NO.#KanyeIsWrong

Worth the read and the connections!

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva beat President Jair Bolsonaro to win Brazil's election, officials said, after Bolsonaro served just one term. The former leftist leader's victory was a rebuke of Bolsonaro’s far-right movement. nyti.ms/3gYDkl2

Here we go again: #Kanye or some POC celebrity makes a clearly #antisemitic remark. White #Jews and POC allies pounce and use the only tool they have. That tool does the same thing that Kayne’s posts do: erase #BlackAndJewish folks who exist in this life. Both harm my people #1

Most of the posts I’ve seen use the phrase “Black and Jewish Communities” but mean Black OR Jewish. That’s an erasure and is a tool of White Supremacy. You can’t use any part of a system of oppression to defend against another part of that system! It’s not a physical system #2

Let’s also name that this is a #POC celebrity. Did it warrant a response and consequences? Absolutely. So, when are Twitter and Instagram going to apply the same to WHITE celebrities and powerful figures equally? #3
My 55 yo friend who is having postmenopausal bleeding just called me from CVS in TX bc they refused to fill her Rx for misoprostol (used to open the cervix) bc she couldn’t prove she wasn’t having an abortion. She is having surgery in 2 days. This is what total abortion bans do.

EYAL HADAD. KNOW HIS NAME. He was murdered by his roommate for being a Jew, with an axe then burned. I want to vomit. Why is his story nowhere to be seen ? #JeSuisEyal

A Black pastor in Alabama, who was arrested in May after a neighbor reported a "suspicious person" in a yard watering flowers, said he is considering filing a racial discrimination lawsuit against his local police department. abcn.ws/3KlLDSj
