β #stopcasualantisemitism PSA 4β The physical othering of Jews is probably most notoriously linked to the nose. The hooked nosed villain prominently coopted by the Walt Disney Company and other hegemonic tastemakers and zeitgeist-shapers, is less human and more hobgoblin. This in concert with the equating of the Jew with vermin, altogether makes directing hate at historyβs favorite scapegoat all the more easy. There is nothing that makes someone βlook Jewish.β While there are prominent features from shared gene pool, visual profiling the Jewish people based on a checklist of stereotypical cues detracts from our humanity. We are of all races, ethnicities, and countries of origin. We are nuanced and experiences, traditions, foods, names, mother tongues, and texts of study are from unilateral much less agreed upon amongst ourselves. The air might be free but my nose, religious and cultural heritage have nothing to do with it. . . . . #beajewishally #stopantisemitism #sandiego #pittsburgh #enoughisenough #jewishpride #activistart #stereotypes #caricature #speakup #notavillian #notyourenemy #iamhuman #guncontrol #stopgunviolence https://www.instagram.com/p/BxauMM5FSv0/?igshid=fz0060pta2y4
