I guess they didn't care then.
Pointing out they honored an antisemite . The claim to oppose bigotry yet honor a bigot

So report it.
why should I report it? That’s not my issue. My issue is that DC honored him
They honored him two weeks ago which is over and done with now and nothing you can do about that.
I was thinking based on your comment that you had an issue with his retweet of an antisemitic post - I mean that's what you provided a link to.
So if it's the retweet that bothers you - report it.
As for the honor it's already been bestowed.

Looks like either they didn't know or didn't care about his work for the NOI because they didn't mention it seeing how it never spilled over into his influence on DC music culture which is what they were honoring him for.

this is why you refused to read the story in the OP so you can refuse to see his antisemitism . It’s all there but you don’t want to see itAnonymous wrote:Eh. he's been on WPFW, and on NPR, and writes decent poems. Too bad he worked for NOI at one point, but its not like they are making him head of police or anything - just a meaningless resolution of "recognition". No evidence I see that he said anything homophobic or antisemitic.
I have bigger fish to fry.
he still works for the NOI. He constantly rts NOI and even Holocaust deniers. He’s also the guy who took the Obama Farrakhan photo in 2005 and hid it at the request of the CBCAnonymous wrote:Eh. he's been on WPFW, and on NPR, and writes decent poems.
