Today and everyday Jewish Voice for Peace stands with Muslims against white supremacy and Islamophobia.
Prime Minister of New Zealand, Jacinda Ardern:
“We are a proud nation of more than 200 ethnicities, 160 languages, and amongst our diversity we share common values, and the one we place currency on right now and tonight is our compassion, and the support for the community directly affected by this tragedy, and secondly the strongest possible condemnation of the people who did this. You may have chosen us, but we utterly reject and condemn you.
“Many of those affected may be migrants to New Zealand — they may even be refugees here,” Ms. Ardern said of the victims. “They are one of us. They have chosen to make New Zealand their home, and it is their home. They are us. The person who has perpetrated these acts is not.”
