A plaque on a street corner that says, “Impact Theatre A community-Wide Educational Initiative. Impact theatre seeks to create “Agents of Impact” by connecting survivors of the Holocaust and survivors of Segregation with area high school students who are tomorrow’s champions of peace. Impact theatre was inspired by the relationship between Dr Martin Luther King, Jr and Rabbi Abraham Joshua Hershel, who joined forces and stood tall to fight together for civil rights and social justice.”
A gorgeous and colorful mural of 5 children representing Black and Jewish friends who are holding peace symbols, an earth globe, a red heart, a dove with olive branch, and Gaia. They are arm in arm in support of one another.
On the corner of 5th & Central in downtown Sarasota, FL. Newtown Alive + Temple Sinai came together to sponsor this beautiful mural. We are stronger together, don’t ever forget that. #BlackJewishAlliance

Reverend Jordan Wells • @WellsJorda89710 X.com * To every Black person tempted by the antisemitic wave sweeping right now： Back when white mobs lynched us in the streets... When we had no money, no power, and literally no movement... Who stood with us? Who risked everything? The Jews. They weren't just allies-they were family in the fight. - Jewish leaders co-founded the NAACP in 1909 and funded/led it for generations when no one else would. - When Dr. King and our people were arrested, beaten, jailed-Jewish lawyers defended us for free, and Jewish money paid bail bonds and court fees while others turned away. - In Freedom Summer '64, half the white volunteers risking death to register Black voters? Jewish. - Rabbi Heschel marched arm-in-arm with MLK in Selma-our struggles linked forever. Without their blood, treasure, solidarity, and courage-there is no Civil Rights Movement as we know it. No Voting Rights Act. No dream realized. That's why I stand with the Jews. They were our only true friends when this country hated us-when doors slammed shut and ropes hung high. They showed up, bled, and built with us.
So to my people joining this demonic, divisive hate today: Pause. Remember. Honor the alliance that freed us. Our histories are bound. Our freedoms were won together. Betray that, and you betray the very martyrs who died for our rights. Black-Jewish unity forged the dream. Don't let hate destroy it. I stand with my Jewish brothers and sisters-always. € Repost if truth > trends. If gratitude > division. If history matters. #BlackJewishAlliance #RememberOurAllies #StandTogether #CivilRightsTruth #NoToAntisemitism

The Jewish vote was second only to the Black vote FOR @kamalaharris.com.
Jews & Blacks aren't the PROBLEM.
They *are* THE SOLUTION.
See: American culture.
Jazz & every other genre of music, literature & art (1920 - present) celebrated internationally is derived from the #BlackJewishAlliance.

The key thing to know about the #BlackJewishAlliance:
The people who hate Jews also hate Blacks.
The people who hate Blacks also hate Jews.

What a superb example of #DEIhistory, and especially why Jews need to be considered part of #DEI.
The Jewish community is DIVERSE.

The Ocean Hill-Brownsville teachers’ strike was a tragic break in the #BlackJewishAlliance.
Blacks & Jews set against each other by differing interests: the Black community’s need to control educational institutions; growing Jewish investment in the safety of unionization.

I didn’t know that a Jewish music label produced Billie Holiday’s “Strange Fruit”, when no one else would.

Combat Antisemitism Movement @CombatASemitism X.com "I felt my legs were praying." In 1965, Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel marched alongside Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in Selma, driven by faith and a shared demand for justice. Black and Jewish communities stood together then, and that legacy calls us to stand together now. Honoring Dr. King means continuing the march against racism and antisemitism. Selma March, 1965 FOR DECADES, BLACK & JEWISH COMMUNITIES WALKED TOGETHER, LET'S KEEP WALKING UNITED.
On #MLKJrDay, Jewish organizations rededicate themselves to the #BlackJewishAlliance.
Work to make justice and equality real in this damaged country of ours.
Keep walking united.

Amen, Ms Ifill!
Also Jewish identity + *Zionism* matters … Nice to see you see it.
Let us 🙏 , the “pro-Palestine” “anti-Zionist” Black community recalls “Strange Fruit” was penned by *Jewish* poet Abel Meeropol & made song by Billie Holiday.
