@odd There’s a lot of truth in what you say, though I confess I have rarely felt able to take it for granted that the people around me, even those with whom I stand shoulder to shoulder on other issues, oppose antisemitism. In part, I admit, this is a left over knee jerk reaction what I experienced, much of it violent, growing up in the 1970s just over the border from New York City. (I wrote about some of it here), and I have a draft blog post that tells some more. But it’s also because there is so often so much silence surrounding antisemitism.
