Hi all,
The public social media posts are under a pseudonym. Community members confirmed it is the same
person. Attached is the public social media profile and one post in particular that is disturbing. I know people
use pseudonyms for various safety reasons, so I hope that this can be investigated as privately as possible.
I don't have any more information than this, but let me know if I can be any more help.
Thanks,

Hello Sam and Matt,

I am particularly concerned on the appointment of Sophie
Rose to the HRC. I have heard from numerous community members that there are some alarming public social
media posts alluding to racist views of Palestinians.
I have also spoken to someone in the Jewish community that has shared that Sophie has some extremist views and
tables with the Stand with Israel group.
The community is aware of this appointment, and this will be a huge detriment to the HRC and Office of DEI if
appointment goes forward. There is no space for people that support the oppression and genocide of another
community on the Human Relations Commission.
Sincerely,
