This Tuesday: Pray and Pub!

Chag sameah, comrades!

We are going to carry this joyous Purim / Adar energy into Tuesday evening with prayer and pub! We’ll have a ma’ariv service with snacks 7-8 at the LGBT+ Centre and then head to the closest pub afterwards. (See more: https://jaq.blessing.exchange/event/maariv-3/ )

Please invite your friends! This is a lovely way to spend a spring evening. The pub also has food.

Spring is a time for growth, and we’re hoping for both our joy and our numbers to bloom.

#Jewish protesters flood #TrumpTower's lobby to demand the #ColumbiaUniversity #activist's release

by Cedar Attanasio, AP, 3/13/2025

New York — "Demonstrators from a Jewish group filled the lobby of #TrumpTower on Thursday to denounce the immigration arrest of #MahmoudKhalil, a #ProPalestinian activist who helped lead protests against #Israel at Columbia University.

"The demonstrators from Jewish Voice for Peace wore red shirts reading 'Jews say stop arming Israel' and held up banners as they chanted 'Bring Mahmoud home now!' on the lower level of the Fifth Avenue building's public atrium.

"After warning the protesters to leave, police said they arrested 98 people who stayed on various charges, including trespassing, obstruction and resisting arrest.

"Khalil, a 30-year-old permanent U.S. resident who is married to an American citizen and who hasn't been charged with breaking any laws, was arrested outside his New York City apartment Saturday and faces deportation. He's being held at an immigration detention center in Louisiana."

#ChagPurimSameach to all in the #Jewish community ! I always loved the story of the brave #QueenEsther daring to reveal herself as Jewish in a very dangerous time and saving her people from the wicked plot by Haman to exterminate them.

I see that same courage in the Jewish communities today. In a time of the worst anti-semitism since WW2, you remain strong and proud , as always.

Wishing you a very joyful and Happy #Purim

These fuckin clowns 🤡

"A 30-day funding freeze enacted by the #Trump administration at #FEMA, the Federal Emergency Management Agency, has caused an immediate pause to the millions of dollars distributed to help vulnerable #nonprofits, including many #Jewish institutions, meet their #security needs.

#Synagogues, Jewish day schools and other organizations that rely on the FEMA funding dispersed through the Nonprofit Security Grant Program have not received reimbursements allocated to them, according to representatives from the Secure Community Network, an organization that provides security services to Jewish nonprofits."

Whether you're left-wing, centrist, or right-wing, there is NO PLACE for antisemitism on the White House. If you're calling it out on the other side, you need to call it out on your own side, too. The hateful comments about Sen. Chuck Schumer need to be condemned.

Solzy on Buttondown · Antisemitism Has No Place in the White HouseBy Solzy on Buttondown

"Five thousand years ago, a nomadic monotheist called Abram wandered out of the Sumerian city of Ur and headed to rural Canaan, inventing #Judaism and changing the world forever. Around 2,500 years ago a crypto-Jewish queen managed to save the #Jewish community from a genocidal vizier, prompting the celebration of #Purim — our most bacchanalian festival. Fifteen years ago, under the guidance of Dan Friedman, radical satiric firebrand Ian Fist founded the Backward to bring American Purim values to the Forward. He hired Rob Kutner from The Tonight Show with Conan O’Brien, thus revolutionizing online Jewish #journalism. Now Kutner has brought it all together in an irreverent #history The #Jews: 5,000 Years and Counting and Friedman spoke to him about it."

Mirror image of all the gentile fedi posts saying who is or isn't a Jew. The rhetorical overlap between the goofball left and the maniacal right about Jewishness is astounding.

"Donald #Trump labeled Sen. Chuck #Schumer (D-N.Y.) a "#Palestinian" during a strange meeting with #Irish #Taoiseach Michaél Martin on Wednesday afternoon.

"Schumer is a Palestinian, as far as I'm concerned," Trump stated, referencing Schumer's vocal opposition last year to the #Israeli regime that has bombarded the #Gaza Strip in an explosive act of retaliation since the #Hamas invasion of #Israel on Oct. 7, 2023.

Schumer himself is #Jewish, but, while he still supports the concept of Israel — which would make him a #Zionist — he doesn't support the administration of Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin #Netanyahu, whom he accused of "turning away from a two-state solution" in a fiery Senate statement."

My Jewish Year by Abigail Pogrebin. I like the book’s concept, but overall it was frustrating to get through. I don’t know if as a project it has or can promote Jewish literacy, but if it reminds people that there are more Jewish holidays than just Chanukah I guess that is something. #BookReview #Bookstodon #Jewish #Books #Reading

For that minority of #Jews who voted to "Make America Grotesquely Awful", it's interesting to note that the two of the three world leaders that Red Don trashes on the regular—Sheinbaum of Mexico and Zelensky of Ukraine—are #Jewish.

Open your eyes.

Interesting that two of the most popular national leaders on Earth—Mexico's President #Sheinbaum and of course Ukraine's President #Zelensky—are Jewish.

It's a weird time we're living in. At a time when #antisemitism is on the rampage around the world, #Jewish leaders still rise. It's especially interesting in the case of Ukraine, which of course has a very problematic history with respect to the #Jews (see: Babyn Yar).

“We thought we’d find some warehouses or a fluvial port,” he said. Instead, the #archaeologists — budding and not — last summer uncovered what may be the oldest existing example in the ancient #Roman world of a #mikvah, a #Jewish ritual bath. They have tentatively dated the structure to the late fourth or early fifth century.

“Such an antique mikvah has never been found” outside #Israel, “so it’s a very relevant find,” said Riccardo Di Segni, Rome’s chief rabbi. He added that the discovery contributed to further illuminating the rich history of #Jews in #Rome and Ostia Antica."
