It's both sad and frustrating that we've got to this point. In the name of calling out anti-Semitism, every single word of Black leaders, athletes, and entertainers is being parsed and torn apart.
There are many who paint African Americans with that same brush. My belief is that they do it to us because they don’t want to hear the issues. This is different. If you continue to use the term Anti-semetic every time you hear something you disagree with, there will be no one left to hear your claims which will be counterproductive. You cannot continue to label everyone that way. FWIW, African American speech is ALWAYS parsed and over-policed.

I had to go and finally watch this Chappelle monologue. It’s brilliant and I’m mad that folks are using it to police black voices!
