It is important for those of us in different groups to be allies for one another. As someone who is white and male, it is important for me to be an ally to POC and women, and when encountering whites and men who do not share that allyship to speak out, because it is coming from a similar place in power.

Sadly, I don't feel Jews have very many real allies here or in the world at large. I am thankful for the ones who really are allied with us and defend us, such as yourself.
