In a recent Instagram post, Natalie Portman called out the rise of anti-Semitism and hate speech on social media.
“Seeing the re-emergence of anti-Semitism breaks my heart.
This hatred must be fought with boundless mutual love,” she said in her post.
“Today I send a little more love to my fellow Jews.
And I send love to all who stand with us against these violent words and actions.
It was painful and scary to listen to, and I am extremely grateful to those who continue to speak out with us against anti-Semitism and against all forms of racism.
