We fight, We win, Am Yisrael Chai
In the aftermath of the domestic terror attack that took place in a Buffalo supermarket, we’re reminded that hate still has a foothold in this country and in our communities. These senseless acts of violence, borne out of white supremacy, aren’t the result of some outside force. But rather the direct result of our country’s inaction to address hate.
This year, 57 historically Black colleges and universities and houses of worship received bomb threats. And U.S. police departments across the country indicate a double-digit spike in hate crimes in 2021 and a continued rise into 2022, including a 223.7 percent rise in anti-Asian hate crimes, a 58.7 percent rise in anti-Jewish hate crimes, and a 51.3 percent rise in anti-Gay hate crimes.
Words matter. We need each and every Republican leader to denounce the hate-filled rhetoric that has permeated on cable, online and from the mouths of some of the most powerful individuals in our country.
We cannot have a country where Black Americans and people of color live in fear that they will be the next victim of this kind of senseless attack. We cannot give in to a reality where good people can run a simple errand and be murdered in hate. That’s not the America I fought to defend, nor is it a version of America that we can accept.
