Let me tell you an illustrative story of just how very much #JewsDontCount as ably explained @Baddiel. On 10th June while violent antisemitic attacks were at their peak a kid's book writers' society @scbwi posted a really moving post against antisemitism.

The non-political post came from SCBWI's Equity & Inclusion Officer April Powers, a Black Jewish woman. Unfortunately for some, merely *referencing* antisemitism is an affront. Enter Razan. Razan *really* doesn't like people talking about antisemitism as her tweets to SCBWI show.

As Razan explains, the fact that SCBWI had the temerity to mention antisemitic violence across the globe without mentioning Muslims/Palestine was anathema to her. Apparently #AllLivesMatter after all! (note her equating US Jews with white supremacists)

From the very long thread we 'understand' April Powers (whose social media accounts now no longer exist after hounding by 'pro-Palestinian activists') was Islamophobic, anti-Arab, insenstitive, erasive & more besides. Of course, Razan would *never* behave similarly.
Would she?🙄

Yesterday @scbwi crumbled under the hate directed towards a Black Jewish woman, forced April Powers to resign, prostrating itself before an antisemitic bully & her infinitely greater number of supporters.
Antisemitism cloaked in the garb of social justice.

There are just 14 million Jews in the world. We will always lose in terms of numbers. There will always be millions of hateful monomaniacal bullies like Razan. There are, however, far many more millions who can choose not to give into their antisemitism.
@scbwi should be ashamed.

.@bariweiss @Yair_Rosenberg @johnpaulpagano @MeghanMcCain this might be something for you to look into...
