Tonight, Jews and Muslims united to protest Bannon
at a NY public library near Bryant Park chanting “Say it loud, say
it clear, Nazi’s are not welcome here!”
Update:
ADL Director Pledges to Register as Muslim if Trump Creates National Database
‘We must stand with our fellow Americans who may be singled out for how they look, where they’re from, who they love or how they pray,’ Jonathan Greenblatt says. ‘As Jews we know what it means to be forced to register.’
Trump Effect: Jewish and Muslim Organizations Form New Alliance
Less than a week after an election that left many minority and religious groups in the United States feeling disenfranchised, two important organizations – one Jewish and the other Muslim – announced an unusual alliance on Monday.
The American Jewish Committee and the Islamic Society of North America have teamed up to form a new national group of leading Jewish and Muslim Americans: The Muslim-Jewish Advisory Council.
In a press release, the AJC said that the new group “brings together recognized business, political and religious leaders in the Jewish and Muslim American communities to jointly advocate on issues of common concern.”
Wow. Good to see. I was just reading an article in Slate that stated main stream media was going out of its way not to use terms like Nazi and racist. But, like I have said for awhile, it is we the people that country our nation’s destiny.

It’s a beautiful thing to see ancient enemies unite in New York for mutual protection.

People are definitely starting to wake up. The curtains have been ripped open and the bright light is shining on us all. Nothing is hiding in the shadows anymore…not racism, not misogyny, not any type of hatred. It’s all out in broad daylight and people can’t help but wake up and see it for what it really is.

If this horrible outcome to a nightmare election unites the real silent majority around our principles of equality, Constitutional government and the Rule of Law then Trump will have done us a favor.

There’s no such thing as defeating fascism of completely abolishing slavery. Both of them adapt and emerge in new ways. Fascism thrives on complacency.

Most heartily agree – we have a fascist government here though few would recognise it.
