MAGA Republicans have launched a racist campaign targeting Haitian immigrant communities in Springfield, Ohio, resulting in white supremacist forces marching through the streets and local businesses shutting down due to threats. The author, who is of Haitian and Jewish descent, highlights the intimate link between racism and antisemitism, emphasizing that they are used together to spread fear and lies. The author's parents fought for community safety and democracy in the United States, building coalitions with immigrant neighbors. The extremist forces behind the attacks in Springfield seek to divide communities, but the author believes that solidarity can break the machinery of racism and antisemitism.
