I'm just one person from Tel Aviv. But I know I'm not alone. I know it happens globally, all around the world. The hatred and segregation between people on basis of race, religion, sex, sexual orientation, skin color and other social definitions that ignite hate and cruelty toward other human beings.
I know it happens in your hometowns, cities, villages, neighborhood, offices, clubs, streets, fields and every where else. But it has to stop now! I can't shake out of disgust and loathe every time I hear words of racism, sexism and other otherist so called philosophies. I know your governments or your leaders, or your managers keep the status quo and won't rage or do anything against this basic violation of this natural human right to just be.
We are all citizens of this globe and I hope you as me gonna stand up and say: "Not in my name!"
Lately, the raging xenophobic crowds against immigrants and refugees and the racists statements and actions against arabs where I live made me realize this situation is not gonna change and due the fact I'm just one individual among millions of haters in this world I still have to make a stand. I don't accept these notions and actions! I disagree with this hatred! And since nothing is not really happening against stopping it I hereby shout out through the net that I disagree to it and I am not a part of it! This is not happening in my name!
Since I know it happens every where in all shapes and forms of ignorance and hate I bet you can relate to it and if you feel like I do as:
I won't be a part of these raging hateful propagandas against "social groups"! I won't take part in this hateful organised violence against other human beings! I won't be a part in this hatred! Whatever our governments/leaders choose to do or ignore while radical hateful groups are doing under their umbrella to other people, it is not in my name!
If you feel the same, and willing to leave "Not in my name!" statement as well. leave a comment beneath this post. I know it's pretty optimistic to say.. but if you could spread it out all over the web, throughout your relatives and friends and they could do the same, we actually might make a change.
I am Keren from Tel Aviv and I say: "Not in my name!"
