#MollyCrabapple|s dolles Buch über die Geschichte des #JüdischenBund war für mich ein unerwartet heftiger Augenöffner. Ich finde es schlicht ungeheuerlich, wie einseitig die historischen Darstellungen zur neueren jüdischen Geschichte sind. Andererseits: die Anti-Zionisten waren halt zumeist ziemlich linken Socken.

Hab gute Lust, mir nun auch »Anti-Zionism. A Jewish History« von #BenjaminMoser zu besorgen.

I hadn't seen Ella Yurman's Going Down show before, but I really enjoyed this episode. It's like The Daily Show meets public access television.

It features a great interview with #MollyCrabapple and live music by #AsherWhite. Check it out here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0MSBCzv8y_s

Ich renn schon lang rum mit der Meinung, dass #MollyCrabapple eine der großartigsten Künstler*innen unserer Zeit, und eine der besten Zeicherner*innen aller Epochen ist. Zudem ist sie auch noch eine wunderbare erzählende Journalistin und ich bin dankbar für die 7 Jahre Arbeit, die sie in »Here Were We Live Is Our Country. The Story of the Jewish Bund« (2026) gesteckt hat. Schon Historie der Ansiedlungsrayon zu Beginn ist irre. Sollte unbedingt auf Deutsch erscheinen.

Bescheid geb Literatur:
Habe nach 20 Jahren Bewachungs- und Sicherheitsdienstleistungs-Branche u.a. aus gesundheitlichen Gründen verlassen, und dankenswerterweise auch eine Abfindung als Verabschiedungshandschlag bekommen.
Versuche nun damit sehr sparsam umzugehen, aber ein Hunni für zwei Bücher hat daran glauben müssen.

— #LewisTrondheim: »Herr Hase und die patagonischen Karotten« (1992; Dt. 2026), und
— #MollyCrabapple: »Here Where We Live Is Our Country. The Story of the Jewish Bund« (2026).

Der Maler #SamRothbort war Großvater von #MollyCrabapple, die m.E. eine der beeindruckendsten Künstlerpersönlichkeiten unserer Zeit ist. Irgendwann als Teen wurde Jung-Molly im Elternhaus auf Erinnerungsaquarelll »Itka the Bundist, Breaking Windows« aufmerksam.

Berührender Beginn von »Here Where We Live Is Our Country. The Story of the #JewishBund «. Solle unbedingt auch auf Deutsch erscheinen. #VerdrängteGeschichte und so.

How #AntiZionistJews Were Erased From #History

#OwenJones

#MollyCrabapple

Brilliant explanation on why so many young people in #Jewish communities around the world are sickened by the crimes of the #Israeli military regime and that they do not in any way speak for them. Because of my views, I am accused of anti-semitism almost every day but show me one example of my comments directed at #Jews. Do I want to the regime in Israel to collapse? Absolutely and that's because of their crimes, not their religion or ethnicity. #freepalesti̇ne #Lebanon #MollyCrabapple

"Two catastrophes haunt #MollyCrabapple’s #HereWhereWeLiveIsOurCountry. One is the #Holocaust, which devoured the lives of many of the people in her pages. The other, more in the background but never far from her thoughts, is the ordeal of the Palestinian people."

I love the quote from Meyer London: "Are you aware that in Russian Poland, thousands of our Jewish boys and girls are giving their lives ... for liberty? they ... pray to God, not to lead them again out of Egypt, but to help them free Egypt."

Read this book!

'In her new book, Molly Crabapple brings to life the extraordinary story of the secular #JewishLaborBund, which was active in #EasternEurope beginning in 1897 and continued its work into the 1930s. The #Bundists sought dignity and equality “here where we live,” not in a distant homeland.'

Ruby Elliott Zuckerman on the Jewish labour bund and Molly Crabapple's book on the same

'the Bund ran a complex network of schools, self-defense squads, athletic clubs, literary journals, unions and local courts, designed to celebrate Jewish life and protect Jews from ever-surging antisemitic hostility...a Bundist meant knowing that he was secular, proudly Jewish, believed firmly in egalitarian values, and was critical about the founding of Israel'

"I spoke about how they shame their critics as stupid and backward, about how their narrative of inevitability is a way of getting people to comply in advance. Nothing humans do is inevitable, I said. It is all determined by politics, money and power" 🎯 Molly Crabapple

re: the Bund

“A lot of what this book is really about is solidarity at its core, the beauty of solidarity, but also the fragility and the failures of solidarity and how often it shatters. But at the same time it’s the only thing that can save us and stop us from this cycle of barbarism where people just take turns as the oppressor and the oppressed. It’s the only way that we can get to a decent world…The thing that made the Bund so beautiful was not just that they were a movement for an oppressed group. It was that they had a strong ethical compass that valued human life, that valued solidarity and dignity for all people. Without that compass, all you have is an alternating samsara wheel of atrocity where various groups take turns kicking each other in the face with a steel-toed boot.“

One more time wi feeling: Molly Crabapple on the bund

'Yes, it’s hideously racist here, but also it’s not genetic. It’s not that these Europeans are fundamentally evil. It’s because of these systems that blame Jews to take the heat off of the autocracy or off of the capitalists or off of the ruler. And we can actually fight alongside Russians or Poles or French or German people for a better world'

#DzeńZiemi #MollyCrabapple #NaomiKlein #AstraTaylor #Doikayt #Tutejszość #DzieńZiemi

W historycznych (powstałych "za ludzkiej pamięci") koloniach #LudyRdzenne, a co najmniej pamięć o nich, są ważnym probierzem naszej (tj. uogólnionych "ludzi białych") zmiany nastawienia do tych, których nasi przodkowie zdominowali i wyniszczyli. Jednak na terenach skolonizowanych w czasach prehistorycznych, gdzie migracje i kolonizacje odczytujemy z haplogrup i materiałów archeologicznych, fiksacja na "rdzenności" prowadzi do konfuzji czy wręcz nadużyć.

Z pomocą przychodzi "Doikayt" - tutejszość, którą, za Molly Crabapple, zaproponował @ayoub i Naomi Klein oraz Astra Taylor, które piszą:

We wschodniej Europie, przed faszystowską i stalinowską zagładą, żydowski socjalistyczny Związek Pracy zorganizował się wokół jidyszowej koncepcji Doikayt, czyli „tutejszości”. Molly Crabapple, która napisała (niebawem wychodzącą) książkę o tej zaniedbanej historii, definiuje Doikayt jako prawo do „walki o wolność i bezpieczeństwo w miejscach, w których żyli, wbrew wszystkim, którzy chcieli ich śmierci” − nie ucieczki do Palestyny lub Stanów Zjednoczonych.
Być może potrzebna jest współczesna uniwersalizacja tej koncepcji: przywiązanie do prawa do „tutejszości”, tej konkretnej chorej planety, do tych kruchych ciał, do prawa godnego życia w dowolnym miejscu na planecie, nawet jeśli nieuniknione wstrząsy zmuszają nas do przeprowadzki. „Tutejszość” może być przenośna, wolna od nacjonalizmu, zakorzeniona w solidarności, szanująca prawa tubylców i nieograniczona granicami.

Tutejszość, pozwala nam uniknąć fantazjowania o odwieczności, rdzenności i wyjątkowości naszych relacji z tym czy innym kawałkiem ekosystemu. Pozwala nam odetchnąć głęboko tu-i-teraz i spojrzeć na naszych bliźnich-sąsiadów jak na współgospodarzy, o równych nam prawach i obowiązkach wobec "wspólnego pastwiska". Od tego zaczyna się Wielka Zmiana, którą Klein i Taylor formułują za autorkami podcastu "How To Survive The End Of The World":

W tym momencie, gdy faszyzm dni ostatecznych prowadzi wojnę na każdym froncie, nowe sojusze są niezbędne. Ale zamiast pytać: „Czy wszyscy podzielamy ten sam światopogląd?” Adrienne zachęca nas, byśmy zapytali: „Czy bije pani serce i czy planuje pani żyć? Proszę przejść tędy, a resztę ustalimy po drugiej stronie”.

Czego i nam wszystkim życzę (z lekkim opóźnieniem) z okazji Dnia Ziemi.

“We confused the power to hurt each other with the power to hurt the powerful. And here we are.”
