Yes, it is a real thing.

Founded in 1993, UNITED for Intercultural Action is “the European network against nationalism, racism, fascism and in support of migrants, refugees and minorities. Together with over 560 supporter organisations all around Europe, ranging from local grassroots associations to national and international NGOs, UNITED coordinates campaigns, organises conferences, takes part in projects, produces publications and undertakes advocacy work to protest against discrimination and promote our shared vision for a diverse and inclusive society.” [Unitedfia.org.]

And they have declared tomorrow, November 9th, to be a day to speak out against fascism and antisemitism.

I would go one step further, and suggest extending it to every day of every year. But we have to start somewhere.

So, from here in the U.S., in solidarity with our old and valued friends across the Pond, I wish us all a very peaceful — and free — November 9th.

Just sayin’ . . .
