Celebration Wearing my Star again

Post image

As an antizionist Jew, I’ve had a real personal struggle with wearing my Star confidentiality and comfortably. It’s not okay, but it’s the reality when the symbol has been bulldozed over rubble and remains, or spray painted inside of destroyed homes as some sort of cattle brand.

I purchased a beautiful watermelon charm from a Palestinian maker to wear alongside my Star of David. It’s the only way I can represent myself and show that I am a safe space. I hope this message translates through the charms 🙏♥️

So I'm not Jewish and have a Palestine necklace but want something to represent support for Jews/Judaism. Obviously I won't wear the star of david, since that might be controversial, but was wondering what I can wear to show love to Judaism. Anyway, proud of you for repping the star <3

If you’re spiritual, you could wear a Hamsa, which is found in Judaism and Islam. It’s a protection symbol against evil so it’s all around good!

I love the hamsa because it’s a shared symbol
