Sign in solidarity with rank and file MTA members who voted to endorse the #DropTheADLfromSchools campaign in a straw poll on Saturday, May 9th.
🔗 in bio
The ADL is a divisive political interest group that:
-Ignores historical and systemic analyses of bias and racism in their curricula, selectively focusing on individual feelings without context
-Restricts genuine inquiry in classrooms, stifling debate and silencing perspectives they disagree with
-Distorts the definition of “antisemitism” in ways that stoke fear among many Jews and pits Jewish comfort against Palestinian rights
-Pushes local, state, and federal educational policy that defends Israel at the expense of the rights of Palestinians, other people of color, and Jews who reject ethno-nationalism
-Attacks schools, educators, and students with bad-faith accusations of antisemitism in order to silence and punish constitutionally-protected criticism of Israel and the political ideology of Zionism
-Smears education workers and unions with false, public accusations of indoctrinating students and discriminating against Jewish union members
-Intimidates school and university boards and administrators to censor teaching, learning, and speech about Palestine through civil rights complaints and lawsuits
