Seen on the street. Washington, DC.
Sticker on a concrete slab. Done in the style of Shepard Fairey’s “obey giant” poster. A black-and-white stylized frog face is framed by the words “don’t obey,” in white block letters on a red background.

[Our suboptimal timeline]

A new Washington Post poll finds that 42% of American Jews report avoiding wearing anything identifying them as Jewish in the past year, up from 26% two years ago.

Screen capture from Washington Post story: In one clear development, the poll finds 42 percent of Jewish Americans say they've avoided publicly wearing, carrying or displaying anything that might help people identify them as Jewish in the past year. That is up from 26 percent who said that to a similar question in a 2023 poll by the American Jewish Committee and from 23 percent in 2022 but similar to 40 percent tracked by the group last year.
