Please join us and be part of the @worldjewishcongress @we.remember #WeRemember Campaign for International Holocaust Remembrance Day! As many of you know, my path from being a neo-Nazi teenager to embracing Judaism as an adult has been a difficult one, but today I am proud of the religion of my ancestors and I am actively working with global organizations that fight radicalization and hate worldwide. As a teenager I was recruited by Canada’s most notorious neo-Nazi, white supremacist organization, the Heritage Front. At age 18 I turned against them, spied on the group & testified against its leaders, leading to convictions and the group’s eventual collapse. I came out as queer and, years later, discovered that my father, (who died when I was a child) had been Jewish. This realization set me off on a journey of self-discovery and remembrance. Today I am the Executive Director of the Changemaker Project, a Canadian non-profit organization, and work as a Regional Coordinator for the Against Violent Extremism (AVE) network, along with @shannon_foley_martinez and others who are actively working to eradicate hate and make this world a better place. #TikkunOlam #NeverAgain #Shoah #activist #activistlife #cve #holocaust #holocaustremembranceday #yomhashoah #yadvashem #remember #remembrance #antisemitism #antiracism #antifascist #peace #peaceonearth #israel #jewish #jewishgirl

I had the chance to meet the lovely & talented Danielle Macdonald at #TIFF18, when I joined my friend, anti-racist activist @dlamontjenkins for the premiere of @guy_nattiv’s incredible film #Skin. It’s been amazing to see Danielle conquer the screen and audiences worldwide with her new #Netflix films #BirdBox and #Dumplin - and now she’s on the cover of the newest Elle Magazine! It’s phenomenally inspiring to see women who don’t fit the stereotypical mould shine so fiercely & bravely - and congrats to all the directors & film studios out there who are casting people based on talent rather than dress size. #daniellemacdonald #netflixmovies #TorontoFilmFestival #fatpositive #redcarpet #filmfestival #birdboxmovie #dumpling #curvygirl #curvy #actress #ellemagazine #hollywood #bodypositivity #bodypositive #outonthetown

After a very intense and travel-packed spring and summer, I’m finally getting some time to breathe and watch an outdoor show before what’s shaping up to be a very busy fall. #torontolife #torontogirl #activistlife #socialactivist #antiracism #socialactivism #redhairdontcare #whitelies #theex #lovethis #breakfromwork #workbreak #vacationmode #cne

This week’s garden crop! Food for thought: we tend to think that it is us who nurture a garden, when in fact it’s the garden that nurtures us. #garden #gardening #tomato #tomatoes #raspberry #raspberries #organic #fruit #vegetables #gardenlife #gardener #greenthumb #gardentherapy #torontolife #foodporn #foodphotography #foodie #foodisfuel #foodismedicine #vegan #veganfood #vegansofinstagram #growyourownfood #kitchengarden #urbangardening #urbangarden #secretgarden #kitchenwitch
