Sangita Myska, for your courage and compassion, I thank you,
Dog-whistled by client “journalists” in hock to money’s might, they cower
In ignorance and fear, the bigot spitting on what’s good and true.
I wept with you as valiantly you battled, speaking truth to power.

Not to your shame at all, Flyntland.
I had never heard of her until a youtube video caught my attention. To see someone in tears because of what is racial abuse is unpleasant.
The abiding problem is that it is often impossible to disentangle anti-Israel rhetoric from anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism.

Thanks for your likes and comments.
I don't always agree with everything Sangita says, but she and Marcus Rashford (who campaigns against homelesness and child hunger) were singled out on air by a woman caller, on the grounds of their percieved race / origins / colour.
To my shame I had to find out who Sangita Myska is - having done so I do so agree with the reason for your poem, no one should have to put up with such humiliation. Well done you for drawing our attention to it.

I've just been looking back over some of my blogs, John M.
To what in my piece were you referring, when you commented about anti-semitism?
