NEW YORK — Over 600 Jewish organizations, representing the majority of American Jews, signed a letter in support of the Black Lives Matter movement that was published in a full-page New York Times ad on Friday.
“We support the Black-led movement in this country that is calling for accountability and transparency from the government and law enforcement. We know that freedom and safety for any of us depends on the freedom and safety of all of us,” reads the letter, which was published on page A17 of the print edition of The New York Times.
“As Jews, we know how dangerous this is: when politicians target Jewish people and blame us for problems, it leads directly to violence against us. When Black movements are undermined, it leads to more violence against Black people, including Black Jews,” the letter says.
The 627 groups that signed the letter included the Reform, Conservative and Reconstructionist denominational movements, which make up 35 percent, 18% and 1% of American Jewry, respectively, according to a 2013 Pew Research Center study.
The list also includes several Orthodox groups such as the Uri L’Tzedek social justice organization and Yaffed, an advocacy group that seeks to improve secular education in Hasidic schools.
The letter’s signatories include ardently Zionist, mainstream organizations such as the Anti-Defamation League and Jewish Federations of North America local chapters, along with several groups that support the Boycott Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) Movement, including Jewish Voice for Peace and Anti-Zionist Shabbat.
A group of Jewish activists penned the letter and first posted it on the publishing platform Medium on June 25, against the backdrop of nationwide protests that erupted following the police killing of George Floyd in late May.
It garnered the backing of over 400 organizations within its first 48 hours, according to Audrey Sasson, the executive director of Jews for Racial and Economic Justice.
“We were starting to see the far-right concoct conspiracy theories that Black Lives Matter was being manipulated by Globalists and Marxists in an anti-Semitic attempt to undermine the Black-led movement,” Sasson said. “This brought an opportunity to unequivocally state as a large swath of Jewish community organizations that we stand behind Black Lives Matter and that any attempt to divide that movement will not land.”
A decision was made to re-publish the missive as a New York Times ad on Friday to mark the 57th anniversary of the March on Washington, the 1963 mass-rally for the civil and economic rights of Black Americans.
Johns Hopkins begins process of establishing new diversity and inclusion goals
Roadmap 2020 Task Force will review university’s progress to date, develop recommendations that incorporate community feedback.
Hub staff report: Five years ago, Johns Hopkins University launched its Roadmap on Diversity and Inclusion in order to state its commitments in those areas explicitly and in concrete terms. Now the institution is preparing to assess numerous programs and activities across its divisions and develop a set of recommendations for the next five years.
In a message to the university community today, JHU President Ronald J. Daniels and Provost Sunil Kumar wrote, “this work is foundational to our community, and it has taken on ever-greater urgency in these past few months as the nation continues to grapple with the impact of systemic racism and the brutal reality of violence against Black and brown Americans.”
They acknowledged the “profound anger and sadness” in the community as the police shooting of Jacob Blake in Kenosha, Wisconsin, became “yet another chapter in a devastating summer of recurring police violence that has unleashed protests across the nation.” They added, “It is clear that the anti-racist, equity-seeking, and inclusive values we espouse must continue to guide our capacity to support our community and our efforts to achieve concrete and tangible change in our institution.”
The Roadmap 2020 Task Force, announced in July along with several other initiatives, will lead the process of reviewing the Roadmap and setting new goals. Students, faculty, and staff from across university divisions as well as members of the Baltimore community have agreed to serve on the task force; the full roster is on the Diversity and Inclusion website. Three co-chairs—Katrina Caldwell, vice provost and chief diversity officer; Ashley Llorens, chair of the Johns Hopkins Diversity Leadership Council; and Patricia Davidson, dean of the Johns Hopkins School of Nursing—will guide the process, which will include convening theme-based working groups to gather knowledge and surface ideas in a way that promotes broad transparency, includes all voices, and provides opportunities to shape the final recommendations to leadership.
“For the task force to succeed, it must draw upon the perspectives and experiences of a wide-ranging representation of stakeholders from across our institution, including faculty, staff, and students, as well as the broader Baltimore community,” Daniels and Kumar said in their message. “We were fortunate to have had significant interest from many people at all levels of our institution.”
The task force will commence its work with a retreat, co-sponsored by the Diversity Leadership Council, on Sept. 10 and continue throughout the year. University leadership has asked the task force to produce preliminary recommendations this spring to be shared with the JHU community for input. The final report, which will incorporate community feedback, will be shared with leadership by June with the recommendations shared with the board of trustees for consideration and endorsement. The final report will be released to the community in fall 2021.
The group plans to hold two leadership town halls, one on Sept. 18 at 9 a.m. to kick off the process and one in early 2021 to discuss preliminary recommendations, as well as a series of listening sessions focused on strategic priorities beginning in October and continuing through early 2021. There will be an open comment period before the full report is finalized, and individuals are invited to share ideas, feedback, and insights at any time through a feedback form on the Diversity and Inclusion website.
While the task force is starting its work, the university is releasing its third Roadmap progress report recounting diversity and inclusion efforts across the institution. This regular sharing of data and stories “embodies our belief that systemic change demands an articulation of values accompanied by a clear action plan and the willingness to shine a light on both our accomplishments and the areas in which we have fallen short,” Daniels and Kumar said.
Among the highlights:
- A $1.8 billion gift from Michael Bloomberg in 2018 boosted the university’s existing upward trajectory in the diversity of the incoming class with the percentage of underrepresented racial minorities (URM) increasing from 14.9% to 32.5% between 2010 and 2019, and the percentage of students eligible for Pell grants increasing from 11.1% to 19.1% in that time
- The HopkinsLocal economic inclusion initiative has driven substantial investments in the Baltimore community by focusing on local and minority-owned businesses and city residents when Johns Hopkins University and Johns Hopkins Health System build, hire, and buy
- The loss of university leaders in two key areas—the Office of Institutional Equity and the Office of Diversity and Inclusion—was a setback to the pace and consistency of the university’s work last year. However, nationwide searches yielded strong candidates for both positions, both of whom joined Hopkins this summer—Caldwell as JHU’s second vice provost and chief diversity officer and Shanon Shumpert as vice provost for Institutional Equity.
Clip of Kamala Harris speaking to Stephen Colbert in June is going viral again, as the party attempts to pivot away from their support of the violent riots.
Stephen Colbert: I want to be clear that I know that there are still “protests” that are happening in major cities across The United States…
Kamala Harris (smiles enthusiastically) Yeah!
Stephen Colbert: ...we’re just not seeing the reporting on it…that I had for the first few weeks.
Kamala Harris: Right, that’s right… but they’re not going to stop! They’re not going to stop! This is a movement I’m telling you! They’re not going to stop. And everyone beware! Because they’re not going to stop… it is gonna ... they’re not gonna stop before election day in November and they’re not going to stop after election day. And that should be, everyone should take note of that, on both levels. That this isn’t, they’re not going to let up, and they should not, and we should not!

Black Lives Matter wants representation from the likes of Nelson Mandela, Angela Davis, Assata Shakur, i.e., calls for terrorism…
In line with the Democratic Convention’s attempt to reverse the case (i.e. Trump is incapacitated and not Biden; blacks are victims of White violence and not Whites victims of black violence), Pelosi alleges that the Trump White House is sponsoring domestic terrorism rather than those behind and participating in BLM.

JF Gariepy provided a decent analysis of this situation, but the Youtube video was taken down. When and if I find it on Bitchute or elsewhere, I’ll put it up. In the meantime, there are several articles - click image for a Yahoo article introducing the story - about Claudia Conway’s puerile rebellion and wish to be emancipated from her parents. Now, regarding Gariepy’s account…
Though Gariepy claims to be thinking independently in his terminological deployment, the discourse parameters he follows are within the altercast box prescribed by Jewish interests and serving them; as ever, a caveat thus in regard to Gariepy’s use of the term “The Left” and its “characterizations;” while this usage and characterology is fairly true when looked upon as a Marxist Internationalist or Cultural Marxist Left, assailing White national, group and personal boundaries, absent the delimiting working hypotheses of the White Ethnonational Left, viz., unionization to structure accountability and gauge correctivity for Whites, Gariepy’s advice is more free floating (and, he admits, nihilistic) than it should be - providing feedback looking toward the more objective facts irrespective of our subjective and relative interests, but lacking the radical orientating context without the centering calibration of White Left Ethnonationalism’s relative, systemic interests.

“Ethno-nationalism—it’s losers. It’s a fringe element. I think the media plays it up too much, and we gotta help crush it, you know, uh, help crush it more.” ...“These guys are a collection of clowns.” - Steve Bannon.
Paleocon Steve Bannon arrested, indicted for facilitating private sector crowd-funding fraud, build the wall campaign…
Donald Trump’s former aide Steven Bannon is arrested and INDICTED over ‘ripping off $25 million crowd-funded border wall to pay for his and co-founders’ lavish lifestyles’ - Daily Mail 20 Aug 2020
Thamster WitNat (Jefferson, Josh and Tyler), 22 Aug 2020 ( Josh Neal 2:10): “Bannon and several other members of the Trump campaign have basically been, just stealing millions of dollars from the public - from god-fearing, Trump-loving Americans, who took it upon themselves to build the wall.”
”...(Jefferson-Lee 2:46): I love this story, how hilarious this is. I know it’s terrible. I’m not happy that Magapedes got ripped-off. I was going to do my pseudo-Cernovich combined with Styxhexinhammer, “I predicted thith, I predicted thith”..because I remember about a year ago both Josh and I railing against this build the wall floating all over conservative media…. probably you shouldn’t donate to this. In fact, your tax dollars should be paying for it. This is obviously a scam. Don’t donate any money. Now what I found particularly hilarious about this, because I don’t know its because I hate myself or I hate Steve Bannon or maybe its some kind of combination of both, I actually went through the items that these goons bought with the money that they stole from Magapedes. I mean, these guys bought a fishing boat! That’s pretty expensive. OK? They bought a legit fishing boat off of the hopes and dreams off of the broken-back, American boomers who are desperate for something to be done.
This story won’t get enough coverage among the people who need to see it. Like conservaboomers and lets be honest, millennials who are like ironically into Americanism and don’t really know who they are; they need to hear this too: The conservative media is Not your friend. We’ve known this for quite some time but this is a literal grift that they were caught doing; lest I forget, during the ‘great Groyper wars’ of 2020, there were a lot of people saying like, you know, “our beef isn’t with Donald Trump Junior, just go after Charlie Kirk when he is speaking at TPUSA events, don’t go after Donald Trump Junior.’ But Trump Junior was seen shilling these funds too. Now maybe he didn’t know, maybe he didn’t have much of an idea of how much a crook Bannon was; I don’t believe that by-the-way, but it’s just me putting that out there.
Regardless, this just goes to show that the mainstream political establishment and the resistance that you’re allowed to have - Steve Bannon, who by the way, I just saw a picture of him before, leaving jail or something, looks like the quintessential boomer - the boomer of all boomers. These people are not your friends. They hate you.
Bannon’s disregard of ethno-nationalism is “leaked.”Majorityrights
To me,” Bannon said, “the economic war with China is everything” ...“Ethno-nationalism—it’s losers. It’s a fringe element. I think the media plays it up too much, and we gotta help crush it, you know, uh, help crush it more.” ...“These guys are a collection of clowns,” he added. See Majorityrights
There is no doubt about it. And just one more thing… imagine not trusting a Goldman-Sachs banker with ties to Hollywood like Steve Bannon? Shocker, shocker! He might actually hate you. He might not actually have your best interests in mind. Imagine that? Just going to put that out there; seems a little obvious when you actually do some thinking. - Jefferson-Lee.
JF Gariepy is more sympathetic to Bannon, arguing to the effect that Bannon is correct to plead not guilty and may be acquitted for the possibility that he may not have been fully aware, or significantly responsible for what his colleagues were up to, whether crowd-funding money was being spent on personal indulgences and what of the crowd funding money was yet to be spent on the wall.
