Show Notes

Kanye West has said some pretty awful things about the Jewish community of late.

He has accused them of controlling business, of controlling people in his industry including himself, he has threatened them, and said he will no longer stand for their influence… and it has set off groups of like-minded individuals who have taken their suspicions of Jewish people to the streets.

But where does this hatred for Jewish people come from and why haven't the lessons of the past shown people just how deadly and dangerous this type of rhetoric can be?

Today, we try to understand anti-semitism and why Kanye is wading into a long and brutal history with a tweet.
