Book cover scavenger hunt for #HauntedShelf I am trying to find them in books that I own.

This has been on my shelf for years. I should probably #readordonate at this point!

Amazing book. Very personable and personal, while still relating to an arc of issues. 10/10 one of my highest ratings yet.

SqueakyChu I would really like to read this book. 4w
Estherhasredhair @SqueakyChu i am about half way done and it is so good! 4w
SqueakyChu Although I hate the title (!), I like the Israeli author, and I have heard good things about this book. 4w
Estherhasredhair @SqueakyChu from what i recall reading elsewhere, the author regrets the title of the book as well. However, it is so descriptive to the thesis of the essays presented that I cannot imagine another title for the book. But she is a very concise author with a lot to say. She comes off as well educated in her subject matter and keeps the audience entertained. 4w
SqueakyChu @Estherhasredhair Looking forward to reading it. Thanks for the info. 👍 4w

Fantastic book. This should be required reading for every Jewish person and honestly? Most people should at least know about this book. That said, there is SO MUCH about this book I disagree with. The author, however, I suspect will be ok with that.

I don‘t talk about being Jewish at work. I don‘t talk about being Jewish at school. I only talk about being Jewish with people who I know are also Jewish. This paragraph is ME.

Yeah. The author is right. The work of Jews in the last 10 years or so has been the work of dismantling the tools of fighting back antisemitism. The last year has been exhausting because the community lacks the tools to handle these hard discussions.

This is the kind of thing happening in 2024.

I don‘t agree with the rest of the paragraph, but him talking about a women‘s studies class in the late 80‘s is a remarkable reminder to be kind to the “other”. I‘m going through my own de-radicalization process and hearing men out in spaces where they are trying to learn in good-faith is something I‘m not sure I‘ve been the best at.
