Got a long letter from my sister. 17 pages typewritten. I had asked her what she as a professional academic was doing to fight back against the antisemitism that has taken over the two places where she built her academic resume over a decade, Vassar and Cornell, both of which are listed in the top ten antisemitic campuses in the United States.
She sent me a hummingbird card and professed, as professors do, that she had no knowledge of antisemitic behaviors on campus.
I do not recall. I have no recollection of that. Not remembering that. And “What difference does it make at this point?”
Hasn’t read my books but pats me on the head for my cleverness at satire. Mildly upset that I don’t read her academic papers on gender studies.
So here, in the graphic above, is the interior of the card she sent me, absent the 17 pages. And in the interest of full disclosure, here’s the front of the card. I’m so touched. You?
But I’m also your huckleberry.
Say when.
