Re: Hundreds of Jewish headstones desecrated in Missouri

It's really disgusting.

Linda Sarsour started a campaign to raise $20k to repair the headstones and it was met in 3 hours. Good humans do exist. Link to fundraising campaign

ETA: 26k has been raised.

In a campaign organized by Linda Sarsour (MPower Change) and Tarek El-Messidi (CelebrateMercy), the Muslim-American community extends our hands to help rebuild this sacred space where Jewish-American families have laid their loved ones to rest since the late 1800's. Campaign proceeds will go directly to the Chesed Shel Emeth Cemetery in lieu of the recent damage. Any remaining funds - after the cemetery is restored - will be allocated to repair any other vandalized Jewish centers.

Disgusting. And we're supposed to be content with a half-assed statement from Trump, in which he once again sounded like an illiterate fool.

This gives me hope that we are all bigger than his bigotry.

I am sad that this topic has been relegated to a specialty board. Whether you're Jewish or not, and whether you're political or not this is our new world.
