#Antisemites
don't get to define antisemitism!
No other minority would be expected to sit on the sidelines while people who aren't part of the community, who don't represent our mainstream views, speak on our behalf.
I challenge the
#mainstreammedia
to talk about what is going on in Israel right now.
I challenge them to talk about the nonstop sirens for almost an hour and over 100 rockets fired so far towards Israel.

I'm not sure what he is madder at, the fact that I'm a strong woman, the fact I am a Black Jew or the fact that I'm a proud Zionist, let me guess I believe it's all.
#thefaceofhate
How can I say BLM and be a Zionist?
Because I'm black enough to understand the importance of standing alongside the Afro-American community in the fight for equality, & I'm smart enough to know the reason my grandfather was murdered in Ethiopia was that he was Jewish.
I haven't been here in a while, but it's only for good reason 😍
I am very excited to tell you I open an
#Ethiopian
Israeli Heritage center in
#TelAviv
🥳
The center will serve as a place for people to explore and appreciate the story of Ethiopian Jews in
#Israel
.
Right now at the scene of the attack in Jerusalem, dozens of people gathering, signing the Tikva, the Israeli anthem. We will not let terrorism win.
Am Israel Chai! 💪🏾💙🤍✡️
They are trying to bullying me into silenceyell, screaming at me at the top of their lungs, lying, shaming me for my opinions, but that will never stop me for standing up for what I believe in, for standing up for

#noplaceforhate
I will say it one more time for, the people in the back.
Jews are indigenous to the Middle East, DNA, archaeology & history tells you that.
A LIE, no matter how much you repeat it, is still a LIE.
Effie Zero, the soldier who rescued a Palestinian from an attack by extremists in Hebron, was issued a certificate of appreciation by Golani Brigade General Colonel Shai Klaffer.
I am sorry, there is no level of mental gymnastics you can do to convince me that calling for the annihilation of the state with the largest Jewish population in the world is not antisemitic.
It's not enough 2 say "Not all Jews are white".
It's your responsibility 2 educate yourself about our history.
2 help with this, I decided 2 utilize my platform 2 tell the story of my community, Ethiopian Jews.
Help me spread the word ❤
Pic: My grand grandfather in Israel,1927
The person next to the board is my great grandfather, Armias Asias, he was a prominent leader in the Ethiopian Jewish community. His first visit to Jerusalem was in 1925!
This photo was taken in one of his classes at the first Jewish school in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia.
#Zionism
Jews in Ethiopia were called “Falasha,” which was a derogatory term that means “landless, wanderers, strangers.”
Yes, strangers, they didn't belong to Ethiopia, they were indigenous to the Middle East, and everyone made sure they will remember that.
Supporting the state of
#Israel
is not supporting one government over another.
Is supporting the
#Zionist
dream, supporting the Jewis liberation movement.
Happy voting day!

Elijah Kay, is the Israeli who was murdered in this morning terror attack in Jerusalem.
He was a new immigrant from South Africa, he was supposed to get marry in six months. Kay worked as an information guide at the Western Wall plaza.
May his memory be blessed 🙏🏾

Let’s be clear, if you normalize or justify the actions of Hamas, you’re actively promoting a terror organization.
An organization that isn’t demanding for Palestinian rights, but to obliterate Israel and commit genocide against all Jews worldwide.
In the last couple of hours, there has been a significant deterioration in the condition of Sgt. Barel Hadira Shmueli, who was critically wounded on the Gaza border.
Please take a few minutes and pray for his recovery 🙏🏾🇮🇱💙
#MyFirstAntisemiticExperience
Me 16 Y/O, first visit to the
#US
:
Random guy: " but you don't look
#Jewish
"
Me: "what do you mean?"
Random guy: "You know, you don't look like them, they look different.."
Me: " I look how I look, and I am Jewish"
I was born after the murder of my grandfather in Ethiopia while my family was in journey to
#Israel
. They saw my birth as a sign from God that i should live in Israel and have a safe Jewish life. that's why they named me ashager- going forward from something bad to something good
I made it my life's mission to tell the story of Ethiopian Jews. A story that is not being told enough & not getting the respect it deserves.
When U say "all Jews are white", U actually silence the stories of my community, silence BLACK voices.
U are making my job harder, STOP.
The
#Holocaust
is not the reason for the establishment of
#Israel
, but the establishment of Israel prevents the tragic events of the Holocaust from ever happening again.
#HolocaustRemembranceDay
In one of my lectures, someone asked me how can I reconcile the fact that I support black lives and a proud Zionist.
The answer is very simple, when my parents lived in Ethiopia, their black skin did not protect them from anti-Semitism.
Zionism protected them from anti-Semitism
Before social media will edit this video to look like an innocent Palestinian that was killed by Israeli forces.
Let’s spread around the full version of the story, a terrorist attacking Jew in his way back from synagogue, just for being Jewish.
#myjewishprivilege
is being born in the middle of the desert, with no medical support, while my family was fleeing from Ethiopia for Fears of their life.
I survived only by the grace of God.
After walking in the desert about 868 miles, from Ethiopia 2 Sudan, staying in a refugee camp & spending a couple of days in the sea, they got to
#Israel
.
Tired, confused but happy, they were able 2 fulfill a dream of thousands of years.

Racism and anti-Semitism are the symptoms of the same disease, the hatred of the "other".
Fighting one symptom cannot come at the expense of the other, we should all join forces fighting against this disease, and turn away anyone who trying to divide us.
Being here in South Africa & seeing with my own eyes how the
#BDS
movement is culturally appropriating the tragic and horrific history of
#black
south africans is absolutely insulting!
Let's take a stand against their shameful actions.
#noplaceforhate
People expect me to choose a group, Jewish or Black. My parents lived in majority Black country, their Black skin didnt protect them from antisemitism. I live in a majority Jewish country, myJewish identity doesnt shield me from racism.
That is why u can't make me choose a group
This is a picture of me at my first house in Israel, not yet realizing that my entire life has changed, different language, culture, country.
I know my
#Zionist
dream wouldn't be accomplished without the sacrifice of the people who came before me.

Seeing in this picture the new Israeli-Ethiopian member of Knesset Gadi Yervarkan kisses his mother’s feet before his inducted into the Knesset, as a sign of thanks and respect is absolutely powerful.

This picture portrai one of the first Ethiopian Jewish groups to arrive to Jerusalem in 1927.
I'm sure there was a lot of challenges, but it's beautiful to see the integration of Jews from different backgrounds
Can someone explain to me how promoting an anti-Israel agenda help black people in the UK?
AHAHA..it doesn't?
So you're just abusing legitimate and important struggle to promote your uneducated political point of view?
As Israel moves forward with the annexation of the West Bank, and mainstream British politics is gagged of the right to critique Zionism, and Israel’s settler colonial pursuits, we loudly and clearly stand beside our Palestinian comrades.
FREE PALESTINE.
Burned.
Imprisoned.
Enslaved.
Tortured.
Stabbed.
Gassed.
Blown Up.
Shot Down.
Jews have been the victims of deadly Antisemitism for so long.
We won’t be demeaned or have our history inverted by the new Antisemites.

Calling
#Israel
an
#ApartheidState
is abusing & using the tragic history of black people in South Africa.
The
#BDS
movement is stealing their narrative to promote their own agenda & politics.
Jews in Ethiopia were called “Falasha,” which was a derogatory term that means “landless, wanderers, strangers.”
If you were Jewish you couldn't own a land, It was forbidden by law. They told them to go back to where they came from.
Here is a headline you won't read in any of the
#MSM
Outlets.
"In the past 30 minutes, more than 90 Rockets were launched towards
#Israel
"
Somehow I feel if we will respond, you will hear about it.

Due to COVID-19, the Ethiopian Israeli Heritage Center was closed in the last 3 months & now is in danger of being permanently shut down.
We want 2 continue being a positive & unifying force in this world & we need your help.

People who say they stand up for black voices but ignore & dismiss black Jews stories, because it doesn't work with their preconceived notions.
I see you, and your hypocrisy.
I have a deep respect for people who in spite, all the challenges, choose to volunteer and

Congress, Mahari Sothal a prominent Ethiopian Jewish religious leader, has led hundreds of people from the community in a journey to Jerusalem.
The next time someone asks you what is Zionism tell them this story.
I will say it once again so everyone can get it.
The majority of
#Israeli
citizens are not white.
The majority don't come from Europe.
We come from Iraq, Moroccan, Yemenites, Iran, Egypt, Lebanon, Syria & Ethiopian (which are the best 😉)

Seriously, from the person that by her own admission is “not an expert on geopolitics in this issues”.
But I guess, virtue signalling, likes and shares are more important from the truth on the ground.
Maybe instead of stoking the fires of hate, use your position to unite people.
Absolutely beautiful!

One more time for the people in the back. Describing

as a white imperialist idea, is actively dismissing black history.
Your ignorance about our stories doesn't means it doesn't exist.
36 years ago today.
This is the moment when years of prayers become a reality. They crossed over deserts, survived famine & wars, just in order to get to this instant, being a flight away from Jerusalem.
This is our modern-day Exile story, we should all celebrate it

6 years have passed since I finished my active military service. Many things have changed since finishing. Today as I do my reserve duty I understand 1 thing hasn’t changed, Israel has enemies.
Your job is 2 do everything that U can 2 defend the State of Israel!
Proud to serve!
You don’t get to share and like content that spreads misinformation, uses inflammatory and antisemitic tropes and then act surprised when pro-Palestine mobs seek out and attack Jews in public.
It’s called cause and affect.
You are the cause and us Jews are affected.

His funerals will be tomorrow Monday morning, 11am, at Har Hamenuchot, Givat Shaul.
In the desert between Ethiopia to Sudan, there r thousands of graves, unnamed, without a tombstone.
Graves of Ethiopian Jews who flee from oppression in hope to come back to there homeland.

This is our Jewish trauma

When you call yourself a proud

Sinceriously asking, how would you react to a panel with the headline "dismantle racism", when the majority of the panelists are not POC, are not scholars in the subject, and publicly displayed different levels of dog whistling/anti-semitism.
