      Shaun King Retweeted Tamika D. Mallory

      Again. I’ll say it a thousand times. What Tamika tweeted was not anti-Semitic. It wasn’t even about Jewish people in general. In the Black Church tradition we often compare our enemies to the enemies of Jesus. I’ve done it. It has NOTHING to do with hate speech. Stop.https://twitter.com/tamikadmallory/status/969707634378108928 …

      Funny how folks interpreted my mention of one having enemies the same as Jesus, as me describing a certain group of people. That’s your own stuff. My point...Jesus had a number of enemies as do all black leaders. Period point blank.

      Sorry man, disagree. Her support of Farrakhan, and the ‘certain group of people’, that’s a dog whistle, if not full out call.

      Here’s what I think has happened. You see her support of Farrakhan and have concluded she’s anti-Semitic. That then colored how you see everything she says. That phrase is common for us. It’s been said for generations. You’ve misunderstood it.

          Everything in context, statements don’t exist in a vacuum. If she denounced the guy, and then made that statement, there’d be no issue.

          Let me help with context. When I feel like I’m being attacked, as a Christian I think of Jesus being attacked. And I sometimes think of my enemies as his enemies. Also, to be clear, his enemies were not exclusively Jewish.

          During the speech in Chicago, Farrakhan made several anti-Semitic comments, including, "the powerful Jews are my enemy" So stop enemy is clearly in reference to that and stop trying to make this a black thing https://www.cnn.com/2018/02/28/politics/louis-farrakhan-speech/index.html …

          I’m still trying to figure out why both she and you are glossing over the “support of Farrakahn” part when that has repeatedly been stated as the bigger issue. And it’s the continued glossing over of that issue that’s coloring everything else said.

          Farrakhan literally called “powerful Jews” his “enemy”. You are being deliberately ignorant.

          it's a common statement for us to. Something people would say before they murdered us. She used to respond to people critiquing her for paling around with an antisemite. This is a very clear example of effect>intent even if you're correct about her intent.

          C'mon, people I an a longtime lefty/Dem and we shouldn't play footsy with Farrakhan. His anti-semitism is not up for debate. He is essentially the Roy Moore of "our" side. He should be disavowed, straight up.

          Sound logic there Talcum X. I for one also think it's rather ridiculous to assume people are racist just for openly supporting David Duke. Glad we're on the same page

          Mansplaining 101. Claim that a racist, sexist or antisemitic remark is "misunderstood". I don't know if she was intentionally antisemitic, but that is antisemitic.

          Yep without question or hesitation I always assume people who support Farrakhan have accepted his flagrant bigotry Did you even read his Chicago speech before posting this🙄 And for the record I'm the same with David duke Alex jones nazis ..
