To: The American Jewish Community
Standing up for inclusion
I commit to not patronizing or otherwise supporting any Jewish institution which excludes Jews critical of Israeli policy -- including supporters of the Boycott, Divestment, and Sanctions movement -- from participation in its programs, whether as paid staff, presenters, or audience members. Regardless of whether or not I share their views on Israel, all Jews should be welcome participants in Jewish communal life without having to pass a political litmus test.
Why is this important?
First they came for JVP. Then they came for J Street. Now they've come for Theatre J. It's time to fight back against censorship of Israel critics in the Jewish community.
