'Kanye West's words should shock me, but they don't'
praised Adolf Hitler and Nazis, denied the Holocaust, and verbally attacked the Jewish community. These words should astound me. But they don't. Antisemitism is so constant and so colossal that it's become expected in the lives of Jewish people. That needs to change.
These incessant headlines remind me of antisemitism's impact on my own family. I remember my grandmother relaying the dangers of crossing her Philadelphia childhood street in 1939 because Jews weren't welcome on the other side. I recall stories of my great uncle from the 1940s returning home from school with bruises because his religion made him a target within his own Philadelphia community—one not far from where I live today.
Kanye West in Los Angeles on November 27. 2022. West has drawn criticism for his comments to Alex Jones, where he praised Hitler and the Nazis.Hitler tried to erase the Jewish people. He gathered a following and empowered others to kill in the most vicious of ways. No one—celebrity or not—has the right to praise someone so evil. Words can be dangerous. They have the potential to lead us down the road my ancestors traveled—a road with no return. Never again.
