Actress Patricia Heaton could not consider her eyes when she noticed Hamas physique digicam footage, flaunting the phobia group’s assaults towards Israel on social media final October 7.
After college students throughout U.S. faculty campuses erupted in protest, Heaton determined to take issues into her personal palms to struggle again.
“I couldn’t believe it, and I was outraged,” the “Everybody Loves Raymond” star advised Fox Information on Monday.
“I looked around for everyone else who was going to be outraged… and it was very silent, so my partner and I created the October 7th Coalition or O7C to help Christians activate, to be as visibly and vocally supportive of Israel, the Jewish people, and fight antisemitism”

Jewish People have been subjected to antisemitism in varied methods, with incidents of Jewish-owned companies being vandalized with Nazi symbols, protesters blocking some Jewish college students from getting into class and now even some Jewish college students seeing their mezuzah – a bit of parchment containing a prayer that’s generally mounted to a door body – disappear from their dorms.
Harvard scholar Sarah Silverman described her expertise in an op-ed revealed in The Harvard Crimson earlier this month, writing partly, “I bounded out of my Thayer dorm, toothbrush and toothpaste in hand, when I noticed something was missing. In the place where my mezuzah — a Jewish ritual object traditionally placed on doorposts — had been so tightly secured, only a bit of sticky adhesive I had used to hang it remained.”
The mezuzah was later found throughout the hallway, two doorways down from Silverman, and tucked right into a wall.

“I am left to speculate whether this was a targeted act. Worst of all, I’m left wondering whether someone on my floor — or even someone I had just met — hated my identity so much that they felt compelled to frighten me,” she continued later within the piece.
Tales like Silverman’s impressed Heaton and O7C to boost consciousness with the #Myzuzah/Yourzuzah marketing campaign, which inspires individuals to report and submit a video of themselves placing up a mezuzah and utilizing the hashtag #myzuzahyourzuzah.
“We have to stand up for the Jewish people… so that’s what we’ve been working on,” she stated.
