#Seder

[fuckyeahmarxismleninism]

Hundreds of Jewish anti-war demonstrators have been arrested during a Passover seder that doubled as a protest in New York, as they shut down a major thoroughfare to pray for a ceasefire and urge the Senate majority leader, Chuck Schumer, to end US military aid to Israel.

The 300 or so arrests took place on Tuesday night at Grand Army Plaza, on the doorstep of Schumer’s Brooklyn residence, where thousands of mostly Jewish New Yorkers gathered for the seder, a ritual that marked the second night of the holiday celebrated as a festival of freedom by Jews worldwide.

The seder came just before the US Senate resoundingly passed a military package that includes $26bn for Israel.

I just had the weirdest experience:

I am on the way to a seder, and I'm scrolling through Tumblr and see a post from someone I've followed for years about going to a seder that sounds... familiar.

I obviously think that it'd be kind of cool if we were at the same seder, but there's just no way.

I arrive at the seder. I meet a few people, one of whom is the most Tumblr-ass looking person I've ever seen. I resolve to tell them I like their shoelaces when there's a chance for more private conversation.

During the meal, the table begins to discuss social media. Through this conversation I confirm that this person is wearing stolen shoelaces. But like.. that'd be a huge coincidence.

During a lull, I quickly pull up the blog I follow on my phone to see if there are any details I can use to corroborate this person's identity. I don't get past a post about a clown seder before I need to put my phone away. Mission failed, nothing useful.

The person at the seder mentions they will be hosting a clown seder.

I don't know how to process this.

I’m leading a Seder for the first time and I’m TERRIFIED. I’m a reform convert and most of the people coming are not Jewish themselves. But my MIL and aunt are coming and they are Jewish! (Granted my mil and aunt in law are lovely and love me a whole lot, but I’m still scared!)

Other Jews in my phone!!!

Help!!!!!!!

Zionist provocateur accidentally proved that Jews are totally safe at Pro Palestine protests.

This moment says it all

Is there anything more Jewish than a meal where eighty percent of the time rather than eat you read an old text and argue over it?

rules of Passover

1. You WILL vacuum every day. There WILL be matzah crumbs anyway.

2. If someone brings donuts to work it WILL be this week

Passover Seder

This morning, as we enter the first day of Passover, I received the most beautiful gift—a photo of little 5-year-old Athena tracing the letter Aleph in my Hebrew 1 workbook, guided by her loving grandmother, Gracia M. Gombita

In the midst of so much turmoil in the world, this image brought me peace, hope, and purpose.

A child learning Hebrew… a grandmother passing on tradition… a language that carries generations of resilience and light.

This is what Passover is about. Not just the story of freedom from Egypt, but the ongoing journey of identity, memory, and connection. From one generation to the next.

This is why I teach. This is why I create.

To everyone beginning the holiday—Chag Pesach Sameach. May we continue to pass down beauty, truth, and belonging, letter by letter. Great job Athena, let’s cheer her on ❤️
