For three weeks now, I’ve been approached by Jewish students seeking support, reassurance, and a sense of community in the aftermath of the worst act of aggression against the Jewish people since the Holocaust.
People participate during a gathering in solidarity with Israel after recent Hamas attacks, on the place des Nations in front of the European headquarters of the United Nations in Geneva, Switzerland, Wednesday, Oct. 11, 2023. or three weeks now, I’ve been approached by Jewish students seeking support, reassurance, and a sense of community in the aftermath of the worst act of aggression against the Jewish people since the Holocaust.
Moreover, probing one’s belief of whether or not Jewish lives matter does not run into the many problems that emerged when Black Lives Matter was in the news in 2020. Were Americans being asked to quite reasonably state that they supported the lives of persons of color — here “black” — or were they being asked to agree with the deeply controversial Black Lives Matter organization?
“Jewish lives matter” is a statement asking people if they value the lives of Jews; it should not be upsetting or nuanced to the person being asked. I can think of no modern or legitimate religion, creed, moral or ethical code, or worldview that would not agree with the notion that all persons of all backgrounds matter.and over the past few weeks, I suspect sadly that there will be people who will say that Jewish lives do not matter.
