I am not loyal to a political party. <br class="">

I am not loyal to hatred, to Jew-baiting, to the gloating connivings of white supremacy. </span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;" class=""><span style="font-kerning: none" class="">I am a disloyal Jew. <br class="">

I am loyal to this suffering Earth <br class="">

I am loyal to Emma Lazarus. To huddled masses.<br class="">
To freedom and welcome, <br class="">
Holiness, hope and love.</span></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal; min-height: 18px;" class=""><span style="font-kerning: none" class=""></span><br class=""></p><p style="margin: 0px 0px 10px; font-stretch: normal; line-height: normal;" class=""><span style="-webkit-font-kerning: none;" class=""><span class="Apple-tab-span" style="white-space: pre;"> </span>- Irwin Keller</span></p><div class=""><br class=""></div><div class="">Listen to Irwin chanting this: <a href="https://www.irwinkeller.com/itzikswell/2019/8/21/oath-of-disloyalty" class="">https://www.irwinkeller.com/itzikswell/2019/8/21/oath-of-disloyalty</a></div></div>
