#EndJewHatred is a grassroots civil rights movement engaged in peaceful direct action to #EndJewHatred in this generation.
We believe the combination of decentralizing communications technology and rising civil rights activism have created a unique opportunity for Jews to advocate for full liberation from bigotry and oppression. We are inspired by the incredible success other minority communities and women have had over the past 50 years in achieving positive changes in their rights.
We know we can do the same for the Jewish people.
This begins by healing the inherited trauma of centuries of persecution and embracing a confident future without fear.
There has never been a Jewish civil rights movement focusing on Jewish legal and social treatment in the diaspora until now. We are proud to support #EndJewHatred.
State Senator Elijah Reichlin-Melnick Proclaims April 29 #ENDJEWHATRED Day
APRIL 29 IS #ENDJEWHATRED DAY
On April 29, 2022, NY State Senator Elijah Reichlin-Melnick (D-38th) presented a Proclamation declaring that day to be #EndJewHatred Day in the 38th Senate District and recognizing the urgent need to act against Jew-hatred. April 29, 2022 was the day after Yom HaShoah (Holocaust Remembrance Day).
It takes courage and strength to act against Jew-hatred.
We know this, because the Jewish community has prominently participated in virtually every civil rights effort in the American experience, fighting against discrimination and bigotry in all its forms and demanding the equal rights of every member of society. But despite the great advances made in promoting social justice for other minority groups, the Jewish community continues to be subjected to violence and discrimination in the workplace, at school, and in public spaces. Hate crimes directed against the Jewish community have skyrocketed across the country and around the world.
It is vitally important to stand united against Jew-hatred, as we have against other forms of bigotry. Together, we must empower the Jewish community with positivity and strength. We are stronger together.
This is what #EndJewHatred Day is about.
On #EndJewHatred Day - the day after Yom HaShoah - we reflect on the strength of previous generations of Jews that were empowered to fight Jew-hatred.
We draw from their strength to ensure that the intergenerational trauma of the past shall never be repeated.
On #EndJewHatred Day, we contemplate the promise of a bright future that can only be achieved by fighting racism and bigotry today.
We look forward to a future without Jew-hatred. A future in which Jew-hatred is as unacceptable in society as every other form of racism and bigotry.
On #EndJewHatred Day, we commit to working together to achieve this future.
We vow to fulfill our shared obligation to condemn and combat Jew-hatred in all its forms.
We promise a better future for our children and grandchildren.
#EndJewHatred Day is about you, our shared experience, and our collective future.
It is a day that belongs to all of us. It’s a day that every person and every organization can take pride in, because that is what a movement is - strength through unity in a simple message: we will End Jew Hatred in our lifetime.
