You're projecting again, comrade.

Stop me if you've heard this one before, comrade. I am tired. I’m tired because my mother is not able to pass as white as easily as I am because of her accent. I am tired when her and my baby sister get death threats from her neighbors, I am tired when she gets called a “wog” (a racist slur towards people with a European accent in Australia”), I am tired when her legitimate complaints are ignored because as a refugee her English is poor and this frustrates the people she is complaining to, and I was tired when I once defended her and was told to go back to where I came from. I’m especially tired by that slur because I then have to go through the process of thinking where that is? If it’s not Australia where I was born, is it Poland where my mother’s family was massacred? Is it Romania where my Grandfather’s family was massacred? Is it the Ukraine where my Grandmother’s family was massacred? Is it Israel which apparently Jews do not have a legitimate claim? I am tired because as a Jew I don’t know where I belong. blogs.timesofisrael.com
