THREAD 🧵- The Blood Libel: There is a coordinated antisemitic propaganda campaign by the anti-Israel movement — led these days by Iran, the Palestinians, and Qatar — to spin a narrative that the Gaza war is not just a genocide, but that Israel is intentionally carrying out a genocide against the children of Gaza, trying to intentionally murder young kids. 

This is a centuries old blood libel that holds that Jews craved the blood of non-Jewish children -- often times back in the day -- for Jewish rituals.

@AOC @JamaalBowman And an antisemite who celebrates Hamas’s unprovoked attack on Oct 7th as resistance - you forgot to mention that.

Our educators know what to do, we need to leave politics out of the classroom and let teachers do their jobs.

Malala Yousafzai risked her life for her right to be educated. But the abridged version of her memoir, "Malala: My story of Standing Up For Girls’ Rights," has been banned in multiple states simply because it was challenged as part of a list of diverse books.

My tiny protest against book banning and censorship - in this case a beautiful, generous, necessary (and harmless) children's book about the great Ruby Bridges.

Please share.

"Book banning has been the refuge of leaders who fear their arguments and writs cannot withstand scrutiny. Its violence is born of weakness. We are not a weak people–fighting book bans is an act of patriotism and a show of strength” - Julianna Margulies https://t.co/pZ63omUbEY
