THREAD: As we approach #YomHaShoah, the day in the Jewish calendar when we remember the victims of the #Holocaust, we tragically continue to see levels of #antisemitism and antisemitic attacks rising in countries all over the world.
Over the past year or so, working with @White_Animation, I have produced a mini-series of three short animated videos which seek to explain several aspects of the worrying and dangerous return of #antisemitism. You can watch all three here: bit.ly/2VvWZfN.
@White_Animation The first video looks at why #antisemitism is a virus, how it has mutated over time and why its return today presents a danger not just for Jews, but for all who care about our common humanity. bit.ly/2VvWZfN
@White_Animation The second video explains what lies beneath the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (#BDS) campaign, why it is so dangerous, and why Jews, people of all faiths and of none and all those who value a free society must stand up against it. bit.ly/2VvWZfN
@White_Animation The third video explores the connection between #Jews as a people, #Judaism as a religion, & #Israel as a state. It shows how this connection is intrinsic to the link between antisemitism & anti-Zionism; something too often overlooked or misunderstood. bit.ly/2VvWZfN
@White_Animation You can watch and read the transcripts of these three videos here: bit.ly/2VvWZfN. Please help publicise them as widely as possible because these are messages the world needs to hear.
@White_Animation Whatever the threats we face, we are, and have always been, #proud to be #Jewish and to live as #Jews. Throughout history, many have tried to attack us or challenge our beliefs and way of life.
@White_Animation And yet, throughout the generations, no empire has ever defeated the #Jewish people, and no force, however dark, ever will. #AmYisraelChai. The Jewish people live.
