Fuck yeah 🤜💥
"The “#Gett Naked” campaign, led by #activist #AdinaSash, is using anonymous images and public pressure to demand a #religious #divorce for an #agunah and force the issue back onto the community agenda.
A growing #online #protest campaign is drawing attention to the plight of #agunot — #Jewish #women trapped in #marriages because their #husbands refuse to grant them a #religiousdivorce.
The initiative is led by #socialactivist Adina Sash, who has worked for years in the #UnitedStates on behalf of agunot and women denied a gett. Sash runs the platform collecting and publishing the images and messages sent by participants. Each #woman decides her own level of exposure, according to her boundaries around #modesty and her personal sense of mission."

"#Rabbi #RazielCohen, 29, known on #socialmedia as “#TheTacticalRabbi,” has spent recent years leading an unusual initiative in the #UnitedStates: an academy that trains #Jews in #firearms use and #selfdefense. Against the backdrop of rising #antisemitic incidents across the United States and growing anxiety within #Jewish communities since #Hamas’ #Oct7 terror attack, #Cohen says demand for his training programs has surged sharply.
Cohen was recently documented instructing students at a private #shootingrange in a wooded area of #Pennsylvania’s Pocono Mountains. During the training, participants practiced firing #AR15 #rifles, quick-draw drills and tactical movement. “Jews today understand that the only person who can protect their lives and their families is themselves,” he told the website NorthJersey [dot] com."

A ‘Garland’ Shadorma
oldest child
born in poverty
raised at a
children's home
because his parents couldn't
afford to feed him
hunger pangs
caught with potatoes
left behind
on the field
shipped off to fight the Nazis
without a weapon
at the front
fell in a meat wave
stabbed at war
through the calf
by Germans probing corpses
crawled back through the night
taught himself
how to speak Russian
for college
self-made man
became the chief engineer
at a major plant
in Vilnius
under Soviets
my Saba
a proud Yid
hired Refusenik engineers
fired for Jewish souls
gave up his
party membership
cursed the damned
Communists
for antisemitism—and
moved to Israel

The ‘Garland’ Shadorma was created by Sylvia Cognac, modeled after the ‘Garland’ Cinquain. Essentially, it is a Shadorma series of seven stanzas, with the seventh and final stanza being composed of lines from all six previous stanzas.
Tanka Tuesday
For Tanka Tuesday, Robbie encourages us to compose syllabic poems that includes a story. My above shadorma is about my grandfather (saba).
My grandfather grew up very poor, was forced to fight the Nazis in World War II without a weapon, and was badly wounded; but he survived and taught himself Russian so he could become a top engineer in Soviet Lithuania.
Even when the government threatened him, he kept hiring Jewish engineers who were punished for applying for exit visas to Israel. In the end, he gave up his cursed the antisemitism around him, Communist Party membership, and moved with his family to Israel.
Let’s write poetry together!
When it comes to partnership, some humans can make their lives alone – it’s possible. But creatively, it’s more like painting: you can’t just use the same colours in every painting. It’s just not an option. You can’t take the same photograph every time and live with art forms with no differences.
–Ben Harper (b. 1969)Would you like to create poetry with me and have a completed poem of yours featured here at the Skeptic’s Kaddish? I am very excited to have launched the ‘Poetry Partners’ initiative and am looking forward to meeting and creating with you… Check it out!

“I’ve memorized Lerner and Golden / I feel like I’m almost a #Jew!” sang the late #protest #singer #PhilOchs. This might fall suspect on your ears, as he calls out noted #Jewish journalists of his era from a goyish philosemitic point of view.
What is not often discussed? #Ochs himself was Jewish, and this line was a bit of #political #satire. Perhaps you’ve never heard of him until now, but allow me to introduce you to this Jewish #protestsinger that more people should know about, especially in our current political climate.
His middle-class Jewish family moved around during his youth from #Texas to #NewYork and finally #Ohio. The young Ochs would turn out to be a clarinet prodigy who joined a university orchestra at age 15. Certainly talented enough to make your #bubbe’s upwardly-mobile #shtetl #neshume #kvell. But then his life would unwind, some say into madness, others would say into genius."

"#Jews are often thought of as #urban, #bookish folks who don’t venture out into the wild. But there have been plenty of Jews who break that mold — #AbrahamCahan, founder of the Forward, was himself a #birder. In To Life: Jews Exploring #Nature, #author #JoelGreenberg, with #JudithWinston, a #research associate at the #Smithsonian Marine Station in #Florida, tells the life stories of a group of #Jewish #researchers, #naturalists and #environmentalists. I spoke with #Greenberg, a research associate of the #FieldMuseum and the #Chicago Academy of Sciences Peggy Notebaert #Nature #Museum, book author and avid birder who lives in #Westmont, #IL, about the accomplished and often adventurous lives of the #scientists he profiled. This conversation has been edited for length and clarity."

This does not bode well... 😬
"A #campaign #advertisement supporting Rep. #ThomasMassie (R-#Ky.) in a #Republican primary #election against challenger #EdGallrein shows a #StarofDavid behind a #Jewish donor supporting #Gallrein.
The ad calls #GOP donor #PaulSinger a "#farleft #trans #activist #billionaire" supporting Gallrein to bring "trans madness" to #Kentucky. The ad doesn't mention #Israel and seemingly uses the Star of David to signal #Singer's Jewish background as another bad thing about him."

would you be surprised if i told you that the team of #crypto bros that was behind #Brexit, #NigelFarage, #ReformUK, #FTX, and #EricAdams is also the team behind the new #goldencalf at Mar-A-Lago? because it is. to be specific the calf was brought forth by the #Hasidic Jews that work for #Tether co-founder #BrockPierce.
some day someone will explain why ultra-orthodox jews would want to work for a former child actor who:
a) is not even jewish
b) was involved in hollywood's most infamous gay paedo ring before being arrested in a house in spain with "8,000 fotografias pornografia infantil"
c) was besties with #JeffreyEpstein. they had a whole crypto fund they ran together.their religion and his lifestyle are just like, fundamentally incompatible. it's like finding out Marilyn Manson's whole team is made up of fundamentalist mormons and the Amish.

"The Department of Government Efficiency’s cancellation last year of the majority of ffederal #humanities #grants, including to several #Jewish projects, was #unlawful and #unconstitutional, a federal judge ruled Thursday.
In her 143-page ruling, U.S. District #Judge #ColleenMcMahon called out the agency created by #President #DonaldTrump specifically for its targeting of Jewish projects, including #Holocaust #research.
“At a time when the specter of #antisemitism has reemerged from the shadows, for our Government to deem a project about #Jewishwomen disfavored because it centered on ‘Jewish cultures’ and ‘female’ voices is deeply troubling,” wrote #McMahon, who was appointed by President #BillClinton in 1998. She was referring specifically to a canceled “project on Jewish #women subjected to slave labor during the Holocaust.”

"#AbrahamFoxman, the former national director of the #AntiDefamationLeague, passed away aged 86 on Sunday.
The #funeral service is set to be held at Park Avenue #synagogue in #NewYorkCity on Tuesday and will be live-streamed.
The #ADL mourned the passing of #Foxman, who served as the organization's head from 1987 until 2015, after which he was succeeded by Jonathan Greenblatt and assumed an emeritus role.
“#America and the #Jewish people have lost a moral voice, a passionate advocate for the Jewish people and the state of Israel, and a remarkable leader,” Greenblatt said of his predecessor in a Sunday statement.
“Abe Foxman was an iconic Jewish leader who embraced the ideal of an America free from #antisemitism and hate and who strongly believed that these scourges could be defeated if good people opposed it.”

How the smear campaign targeting the Green Party and Muslim voters failed
The Greens, which made enormous gains in the local elections, were repeatedly accused by their rivals and sections of the media of engaging in '#Muslim sectarianism'

10 May 2026or the last six weeks, the #UK's #GreenParty has been the victim of a sustained smear campaign.
Leader #ZackPolanski has been accused of being an #antisemite, a liar, a fabricator and a hypocrite.
His supporters have been painted as crazed Islamists obsessed by foreign policy at the expense of day-to-day issues.
4 national newspapers published cartoons of #Britain's only #Jewish leader, which have been widely criticised as #antisemitic.
...yesterday, it became obvious that the attempt to destroy #Polanski and the #Greens had failed.

I discovered anti-#Zionism at the #UniversityOfMichigan. I'm glad it lives on there
A controversial speech conveyed essential lessons for all #Jews

[#Jewish publication from #USA]
May 8, 2026At the U. of #Michigan’s recent commencement ceremony, history professor Derek Peterson delivered a 5-minute speech in which he celebrated all those who have fought for justice at the university, my alma mater. Invoking our legendary fight song, he asked the crowd to “sing” for suffragist Sarah Burger, who battled to get #women admitted as students; for Moritz Levi, UM's first #Jewish professor; for all the students who fought for #RacialJustice at #UM as part of the Black Action Movement; and for the “pro-#Palestinian student activists, who have over these past two years opened our hearts to the injustice and inhumanity of #Israel’s war in #Gaza.”

"Fewer than a hundred #Jewish people are estimated to remain in #Syria, scattered across a country where their community once numbered in the tens of thousands.
In the narrow stone alleys of #Damascus's ancient #JewishQuarter, the question of how to maintain #religious tradition with almost no one left to sustain it has become urgent, and nowhere is that more visible than in the search for #kosher #food.
#BakhorShamntoub, head of Syria's #Mussawi or Jewish community, sat down with Euronews to explain how a tradition that once sustained an entire community now depends on individual effort, occasional #imports from #Turkey, and packages sent by relatives in the #US.
#Kosherlaw, #Shamntoub explained, permits lamb, beef and chicken — but only under strict conditions."

"In the 1970s, in the wake of an emerging #secondwave #feminism, #women’s #magazines were expanding rapidly with a unique style. Their focus, however, tended to exclude #minorities. #Jewish women were seen as privileged “others”, not facing the same constraints as their #gentile peers. That’s why the #Winnipeg-born #SusanWeidmanSchneider founded #Lilith, a Jewish #feminist magazine, out of #NewYorkCity in 1976.
Lilith was radical in many ways, tackling taboo subjects like #abortion and #gayrights from a female Jewish perspective. Now celebrating its 50th anniversary, Lilith has persevered as a community of #literary, engaged and often mature #Jewishwomen, hosting salons and creating a space for Jewish women to express themselves freely. To reflect on its impact, #WeidmanSchneider joins #PhoebeMaltzBovy on this week’s episode of #TheJewishAngle."

"In addition to my own #scholarship and #teaching on #Jewish #folklore, I also proudly serve as the co-chair of the #American Folklore Society’s #JewishFolklore and #Ethnology Section and as an associate editor of the #academic journal Jewish Folklore and Ethnology. My work, like that of my colleagues, depends on engagement with communities, with #archives, and with #scholars across borders.
It is precisely that kind of engagement that is now under threat.
Within #folkloristics, #ethnomusicology examines music as a form of cultural knowledge and expression, a way of understanding identity, history, and society. Recently, the group Music Scholars for #Palestine has pushed for the Society of Ethnomusicology (SEM) to adopt a resolution aligned with the #Palestinian Campaign for the #Academic and #Cultural #Boycott of #Israel (#BDS)."

How Israel’s creation mirrors Greek independence – and why it’s overlooked

"The #AntiDefamationLeague’s local leader decried a #pleadeal reached Tuesday that is expected to spare the man charged with causing the 2023 #death of #Jewish #protester #PaulKessler from being sent to #prison. Instead, #LoayAbdelFattahAlnaji would face no more than a year in county #jail.
#Alnaji, 53, of #Moorpark, #California, admitted to hitting #Kessler, a 69-year-old Jewish pro-#Israel #activist, in the head with a megaphone during dueling pro-#Palestinian and pro-Israel demonstrations in a #LosAngeles suburb in November 2023.
Kessler later died of his injuries, and his death became the first tied to demonstrations surrounding the war in #Gaza in the #UnitedStates."
