The more I speak up for the human rights and dignity of Palestine, the more Jewish leaders ask me to speak out against Louis Farrakhan. I’m sorry but that’s preposterous. It’s racist for you to even ask me this. I’m not responsible for a single word that comes out of his mouth

whether or not you denounce farrakhan is your business. but continually bringing palestinian rights into a conversation about an overtly anti-semitic minister and his view of american jews is a form of antisemitism.

many people disturbed by the unwillingness of prominent american activists to denounce farrakhan are disturbed by what’s happening in israel, abhor netanyahu, and want full rights for palestinians. but this is entirely separate from a man who says jews caused the holocaust.
