' Actor Nick Cannon and Anti-Defamation League (ADL) CEO Jonathan Greenblatt called for unity between the Black and Jewish communities in a joint op-ed in The Forward on Aug. 11.
Cannon and Greenblatt wrote that there has been a rise in hate overall, citing “anti-Black prejudice” in response to the Black Lives Matter movement, a spike in anti-Semitic incidents nationwide in 2019 as well as a rise in anti-Asian incidents since the start of the COVID-19 pandemic.
“Racism isn’t just a problem for Black Americans; it’s my problem as a white Jewish man,” they wrote. “And anti-Semitism isn’t just a problem for American Jews; it’s my problem as a non-Jewish Black man. And yet, today, the Black and Jewish communities don’t always seem to stand together.”
Cannon and Greenblatt noted that the ADL and various other Jewish groups have had long partnerships with civil rights groups like the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and that Jews marched with civil rights leaders in Selma, Ala., in 1965. However, the relationship between the two communities has eroded over the years because of differing “collective interests” and “loud voices on the fringes.”
“This needs to change,” they wrote. “Now.”
The two men suggested that the best way to do is for individuals to start taking responsibility when advancing stereotypes, even if it’s unintentional.
“It continues by advancing an agenda of learning, so we study and come to understand our respective histories so we can be better allies to each other,” Cannon and Greenblatt wrote. “And it is sustained by accelerating efforts to collaborate, even when it’s uncomfortable, so we can create authentic change that uplifts everyone because we cannot be free until everyone is free."

Today the term "person of color" (plural: people of color, persons of color; sometimes abbreviated POC) is primarily used to describe any person who is not considered white in the United States. During various periods in US history, persons of color included African Americans, Latino Americans, Italian Americans, Asian Americans, Native Americans, Pacific Islander Americans, Middle Eastern Americans, and multiracial Americans.[citation needed] The term emphasizes common experiences of systemic racism. The term may also be used with other collective categories of people such as "communities of color", "men of color" (MOC), and "women of color" (WOC). The acronym BIPOC refers to black, indigenous, and other people of color and aims to emphasize the historic oppression of black and indigenous people.

Middle Eastern Americans are Americans with ancestry, origins, or citizenship from the Middle East. According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the term "Middle Eastern American" applies to anyone of Western Asian and North African extraction.
This definition includes both indigenous Middle Eastern groups in diaspora (e.g. the Jewish diaspora, Kurdish Americans, Assyrian Americans, etc.) and current immigrants from modern-day countries of the Arab League, Iran, Israel and Turkey. Middle Eastern communities have been settling in America since at least the Dutch colonial period of New Amsterdam, when Sephardic Jews fleeing persecution in Brazil found refuge there in 1654.

Canaanite peoples
Jews (Yehudim): along with Samaritans, belong to the Israelite nation of the southern Levant, who are believed by archaeologists and historians to have branched out of the Canaanite peoples and culture through the development of a distinct monolatrous—and later monotheistic—religion centered on El/Yahweh, one of the Ancient Canaanite deities. Following the Roman colonial occupation, destruction of Herod's Temple, and failed Jewish revolts, most Jews were either expelled, taken as slaves to Rome, or massacred, although a small number of Jews managed to remain over the centuries despite persecution by the various conquerors of the region, including the Romans, Arabs, Ottomans, and the British. Additionally, a substantial number of Jews returned from diaspora during the 19th and 20th centuries (mainly under the Zionist movement), as well as after the modern State of Israel was established in 1948. This was coupled with the revival of Hebrew, the only Canaanite language still spoken today. DNA studies show that all major diaspora Jewish communities, with the exception of Ethiopian and Yemenite Jews, derive the majority of their ancestry from ancient Israelites.
