#🟦StandUpToJewishHate
Update: Most recently, Senator Chuck Shumer (D-NY) pointed to the blue square button on his lapel as he spoke at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago on Tuesday, August 20, 2024.
Stand Up To Jewish Hate is a campaign to make the blue square a recognizable symbol against antisemitism and all hate. It is from the Foundation to Combat Antisemitism, founded by Robert K. Kraft, CEO of the Kraft Group, owner since 1994 of the New England Patriots, and winner of the Genesis Prize. Their first commercial aired during the Patriots/Jets NFL game.
Directions for how to make the blue square on your cell phone:
Search "blue square" in the emojis (smiley faces) on your cell phone to create your own message against hate, and type a # with it: #🟦
Examples:
#🟦StandUpToJewishHate
#🟦StandUpToAllHate
#🟦StandUptoHate
I won't stay silent against antisemitism. Or any form of hate. #🟦StandUpToAllHate
Their commercials deliver a message that is designed to reach the general public. It has an unexpectedly innovative thought delivered with a solid punch – about antisemitism and all forms of hate. "Don't bring hate to the protest" debuted nationally on TV in May during the Celtics vs. Cavaliers NBA Playoff game on TNT and aired again during the Knicks vs. Pacers NBA Playoff game.
