2. Not for nothing

I'm much more concerned about sick and hungry children and the elderly in America right now.

Charity begins at home.

There was and has been a thread of Anti-Blackness in Palestinian American community.

Since 1908 - our natural ally has been Jewish Americans. Jewish Americans have never asked us to wait. Our fight has been the same one.

I'm sorry that happened. That movement was problematic last year - and now in a MagAmerica - they are STILL trying to center themselves. They can take a ticket and wait in line. Not a single one of them will lift a finger to help a Black.American or Jewish American family when the Klan comes calling. They won't.

We are just collateral damage in their minds. And personally? I will never forget or forgive.
