Yes, that we agree on. The rise in antisemitic violence has been dramatic. And yet it still hasn't reached 1/5th of the level of anti-Black violence. Let me say that again: In the period of time it took hate crimes to kill 1 Jewish person in NY state, hate crimes killed 11 Black people.

And I'll add to that further. The reason that antisemitic hate crimes are rising, is because Americans don't care enough about horrific conditions that affect Black people. That's how someone like Trump was able to become president in the first place.

We only notice horrors that happen to Black people every single day, when they start happening to people that aren't Black.🤷🏿‍♂️ Delaney Hall is a cake walk compared to Rikers. But Rikers is mainly an ever-present fear for innocent Black boys. So no one cares. People protest Delaney but not Rikers.

I've said on here many times, that there is no immigrant in this country that has been raided by ICE more times than I've been raided by the cops (driving/walking while Black). I've also said that my experience is not unique. I'm not even in the top 10% of innocent Black people harassed by cops.

We don't even notice how horrific and dystopian electroshock gloves are when they are used on Black children in school hallways. It's only when they are used by ICE on adults that aren't Black, that we notice. We don't even notice that the US "arrests" tens of thousands of kids under 9 years old.
