This is a SHOCKING and SICKENING story and echos what a business associate reported to me a few weeks ago as observed by his parents also at JFK. @SenSchumer, @SenGillibrand, AG @TishJames and @CivilRights need to get onto this ASAP!

Thank you @LizMair for speaking up!
Too many visibly Jewish people suffered in silence from this in recent weeks and months (while reading in the Times that they are NY's biggest problem). People just want to be on their way and not make a scene which may cause them to be detained too.
People need to share their experience.

A story that happened to your cousin's friend does not count.

A story without being willing to give your name to investigators is not much of a help.

Share your experience with the details of date and time to Contact @OJPAC Dot Org.

Hi @NYCComptroller @bradlander and @LizKrueger

#AsAJew, read the memo by Doug Scheinder on the multiple anti-Semitic and bigoted parts of the #ShapiroDossier.

If David Duke did it to African Americans, you wouldn't focus on the alleged "facts."

As a Jew, where are you now?
The #AsAJew crowd consists of people who on social/other media identify "As A Jew" only for their leftist politics and/or to pile onto Israel and Hasidim, but are publicly MIA on anything else Jewish. "As a Jew" Trump and a tweet from a small time white guy are bad. But...
those same Politically Leftist Jews are largely silent when almost all hate crimes against visibly Jewish people in NY the last 5 years were by non-whites. This does not fit their political agenda, so their #AsAJew tag gets put on ice. cc @bradlander @LizKrueger @JerryNadler

1) A THREAD ON #JackieWalker & HER CLAIMED JEWISH STATUS.
Why is this important? Because Walker trades on her “As a Jew” status. In fact she doubles down on it. Speaking as a “Black Jew” she uses her self-declared double victim status as a force shield against accusations of AS
2) But is #JackieWalker actually Jewish? The first thing to understand is that Jews are both a religion & a “people”. You CAN be Jewish without believing in any religion, or G-d, or Moses & you aren’t disqualified if you eat bacon & never go to synagogue.
3) So, if being Jewish is not predicated by a belief in G-d, how do we define the concept of the Jewish “people”. We are a group of people who have a nationality defined by shared language, history, culture AND religion. What, then, makes someone Jewish?
