I'm running for House of Representatives in New Jersey's 1st Congressional District with the Green Party to offer a choice for the people outside the failed two-party system. We'll put a pro-worker, anti-war, climate action agenda front and center in this election and on the ballot in November.

Opposing
Genocide,Ethnic
Cleansing,
Apartheid and
Racism
Robin’s
father was Jewish and her mother
was Filipino. Being raised in a
biracial family was a strong
influence on her views, as she,
her siblings (especially her
brother), and her mother were
subjected to taunting,
harassment, physical violence,
and racial discrimination
throughout the years. Her father
was a proud Zionist, who taught
her that Israel had “the
most moral army in the
world,” and that Jews were
“God’s chosen
people.” She was told that
all Arabs were violent people.
Still, as a child who had been
subjected to racist
dehumanization by white
Americans, she began to reject
the stereotypes of Arab or
Palestinian people. She learned
to distinguish between Judaism
and Zionism, and eventually
educated herself about the real
history of Israel and Palestine.
She is currently active in
actions organized by South
Jersey for Gaza, calling
for a permanent ceasefire in
Gaza and the West Bank and an
end to the genocide of
Palestinian people being
committed by the Israeli
government.
