We stand in support of Ms Rachel and her continued work advocating for the wellbeing, safety, dignity and human rights of children everywhere.

We oppose efforts by Erez Levin to pressure Netflix and other companies into severing its relationship with Ms Rachel for Littles, or to have her removed from any of her current platforms, partnerships or affiliates because of her advocacy for children experiencing humanitarian crises.

Standing up for children's human rights is not antisemitism.

Advocating for Palestinian children, or any children suffering from war, displacement, violence and humanitarian deprivation, is not an attack on Jewish people or Jewish identity. In the same way her advocacy for children harmed by US government agencies such as ICE is not an attack on Americans and American identity, neither is it promoting violence.  It is an expression of our shared humanity and a commitment to the principle that every child's life has equal value.

We must be able to speak up for children whose suffering is overlooked, including children affected by conflicts in which our own governments have actively provided funding, weapons or other forms of support. Holding governments accountable for their actions is not hatred towards a religious or ethnic community. Criticism of government policy and advocacy for human rights must never be automatically conflated with antisemitism.

Ms Rachel has used her platform to remind the world that children deserve compassion, protection, recognition and a voice, regardless of their nationality, ethnicity, religion or circumstances of birth.

We believe that children should never become collateral damage in political disputes, and that those who advocate for their safety should not be punished for doing so.

We respectfully call on the companies and organisations involved to:

• Netflix: Reject demands to remove Ms. Rachel and Songs for Littles from its catalogue. Continue making her educational content available to families.
• Spin Master: Maintain Ms. Rachel's toy and educational licensing partnerships and continue supporting products that help children learn and develop.
• Target, Walmart, Sam's Club, and Amazon: Continue offering Ms. Rachel's educational toys, books, and merchandise to families.
• Commercial sponsors: Maintain fair and evidence-based partnerships rather than withdrawing support simply because of someone  has a problem with human rights advocacy for all children.
• Social media platforms: Protect Ms. Rachel's ability to express lawful humanitarian views and participate in public discussion without unfair censorship or coordinated harassment.
• The public: Challenge statements you disagree with through respectful dialogue, evidence, and constructive discussion rather than attempts to destroy someone's career.

OUR MESSAGE: 

Children do not have political power. They rely on adults to speak up, protect them and defend their right to a safe and dignified childhood. They deserve to be seen and heard.

We will not accept a world where advocating for some children's lives is celebrated while advocating for others is punished.

Protect Ms Rachel for Littles. Protect her work on Netflix and across all her current affiliates. Protect the right to speak up for every child.

Every child deserves to be seen. Every child deserves to be protected. No exceptions.

We can care about Israeli children and Palestinian children.

We can condemn terrorism and violence while demanding protection for innocent civilians.

We can disagree with Ms. Rachel without demanding that she lose everything she has built.

We can defend Jewish families against antisemitism while also defending Palestinian families against hatred and dehumanisation. Which Ms Rachel has done.

These principles are not mutually exclusive.

Ms. Rachel's educational work has helped countless families. Her public expressions of humanitarian concern should not erase that contribution, nor should disagreement with her political views be grounds for an industry-wide effort to eliminate her professional opportunities.

We stand against collective punishment, disproportionate cancellation, and the weaponisation of corporate sponsorships to silence humanitarian voices.

We stand for children, compassion, fairness, freedom of expression, and the right to disagree without destroying one another.

We urge Netflix, Spin Master, Target, Walmart, Sam's Club, Amazon, and all associated sponsors to reject the demands for cancellation and continue supporting Ms. Rachel and Songs for Littles.

SIGN THIS PETITION TO STAND WITH MS. RACHEL.
