I want to do something besides protest the wave of antisemitism.

I was born and raised (halfheartedly) as a Jew. I'm now an humanist, an atheist, freethinker, ethical culturalist.

I'm now wearing a large Star of David on a pendant. It's from high school when I was active with a Jewish youth group. It has the name of a Russian (Jewish) political prisoner on the back. I know that it's a myth that King Christian of Norway wore a yellow "Jude" Star when Germany demanded all his country's Jews. I can take the myth and make it a reality.

I want this fight to be more than going to marches and demonstrations. I want to show solidarity with the victims and the community.
