On a very limited grocery trip this morning, the overeager store employee in charge of the PA system wanted everyone to know that there were sales in the "seasonal aisle" #thread #endtheendcap
So I turn into the "seasonal aisle" to see if there is matzah and macaroons to be found since the last 4 STORES I tried over the last week were emptied completely | #thread #endtheendcap
Said aisle is positively dripping with pastel and plastic Easter eggs and bags of candy worthy of halloween but no matzah, macaroons, or passover decor in sight. | #thread #endtheendcap
And the same sinking feeling I get during every #Jewish holiday came sneaking back into my psyche. Did you know that #Passover 
https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> happens every year at the same time as #Easter https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">? Did you know that there& #39;s roughly 7.2 MILLION Jewish people in the United States? | #thread #endtheendcap
Did you know that literally NONE of the food promoted for #Easter https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> is #kosher for #passover https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt="">? 7.2 million people who are presumably looking for some kind of Passover food and can& #39;t find any. | #Thread #Endtheendcap
In the time of #socialdistancing and #covid19, driving round to 5 different stores to find food to eat is not only irrational, it& #39;s exponentially more dangerous. This morning I gave up and decided that #Passover https://abs.twimg.com/hashflags... draggable="false" alt=""> would just last as long as my matzah did. | #thread #endtheendcap
This time in our world has started to make it very clear who is valued and who is not. I& #39;m not saying that grocery stores are intentionally trying to harm #jewish folx. | #thread #endtheendcap
I& #39;m saying that the same negligence and #willfulignorance that has been around since I was a kid is now making honoring annual holidays which are not mainstream is not only unsupported but dangerous. | #thread #endtheendcap
If stores took half a second to source a reasonable amount of food for their customers, this wouldn& #39;t be an issue. If they moved #jewish and #kosher food to more than a 3x7 end cap, this wouldn& #39;t be an issue. | #thread #endtheendcap
@kroger @Target @Walmart @FoodLion @Safeway @Publix @WholeFoods I invite you to #endtheendcap and consider the actual needs of your #historicallymarginalized customers. This #thread is not only about #jewish folx; it& #39;s about everyone who has been relegated to the #endcap
