[quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous][quote=jsteele][quote=Anonymous]Baldwin’s quote ignores the fact that the most targeted Jewish community is the VISIBLE Jews — the Hasidim and other orthodox. And by targeted, I mean also targeted by the Black community. We have somehow all forgotten the multiple attacks by the Black Hebrew Israelites across greater NYC over Hanukkah. They attacked ORTHODOX Jews and killed many. Nation of Islam similarly vilifies all Jews but reserves a special hatred for the visible ones (see their conspiracy theory that tfillin are some satanic black cube of Saturn).

Baldwin wrote the article in 1967. Let's condemn him for not correctly predicting 2019 and 2020 events.

? Visible Jews were being attacked in the 1960s too. The Nation of Islam existed in the 60s — it’s a large part of the Black Power movement.

Jeff, you need to learn more about the history of Jews in America, and the history of the Nation of Islam, for that matter.

The post to which I was responding mentioned specific recent events, not events from the 1960s. I have been very polite to you while you have taken this thread off topic. There is no need to get rude and tell me what I need or don't need to learn. There are plenty of things that you could learn about yourself.
