Could you fix the link to the alternative letter? It points to the original letter with roughly 1400 signatures.

Thanks! Sorry it took so long to update. Its been a hairy couple of months....

Thanks Lee. I signed the form the letter now points to but it wasn't clear where the new (late) signatures go to? Will they be sent directly to APS or collected and then sent (if you know)?

We are planning to open the letter to anyone. If that can garner some substantial number of signatures, we will resend it to aps and the newer signatories here will be included.

The link to the alternative letter does not work - it leads to the original letter

Lee I just became a paid subscriber, specifically to support the important academia, along with your students. God speed in 2023 to all.

Thanks! Once I get done with responding to this (at least one more essay to come, titled:

There is No Racist Mule Trope (and there never was).

Then back to "normal" (for me) posts here. Including maybe even some previews of studies (we just found that leftwing authoritarianism strongly predicts endorsement of Soviet-era anti-American "antiracist" propaganda....

Lee, my son Zach Goldberg told me about this and I can’t come to any other conclusion than Fiddler on the Roof is an opus about white privilege. In fact, ALL of Sholom Aleichem’s work reeks of Jewish cisgender supremacy. 😆

Planning two entries on Progressive/Woke antisemitism. One is written and would have been posted a month ago, but it got bumped by the PoPS Fiasco. Other is sketched... Coming as soon as I can clean off enough mud...

I’m writing a book on Woke Jewish anti-Zionists. Would love to discuss and get your thoughts sometime !

Just saw this. Love to. Zach has my contact info... (I think).

Truly thanks for this. It is very useful to have all the references available in a single place, orderly and neat in timeline with comments.

It makes my brain so much tidier.

Appreciate the recap, I kind of got lost in all of the different papers and confused by the timeline (came to the party late).

I swear I'm not trying to make it my job to nitpick typos, but there are a few times when "Hommel" is misspelled "Hommler" and the first two primary sources link to the same document. Feel free to delete this comment.

I THANK YOU! That sort of thing is: 1. Embarrassing; 2. Has plagued my entire f'ing life. I strongly encourage you to keep it up. I know I just said "thank you," but you are helping improve my Substack. So, thank you!
