AAJ "Ask A Jew" Wednesday

It's everyone's favorite day of the week, "Ask A (Anti-Zionist) Jew" Wednesday! Ask whatever you want to know, within the sub rules, notably that this is not a debate sub and do not import drama from other subreddits. That aside, have fun! We love to dialogue with our non-Jewish siblings.

  1. How can we help combat anti-semitism in the pro-Palestine movement? How should we respond to people defending Hamas/the loss of civilian Israeli lives? How can we make Jewish people feel safer in pro-Palestinian spaces? And how do we do this while still centering Palestinian suffering?

  2. How can we acknowledge and validate the very real pain and fear Jewish people are feeling while also defending the Free Palestine movement from people who claim it’s inherently antisemitic? Like how do we convince everyone that this doesn’t have to be a zero-sum game?

  3. Do you feel like there’s a disconnect between the Muslim community and the Jewish community that we need to amend? Because as a Muslim, I feel that is the case.
