- 1922, American antisemitism, antisemitism, hate speech, propaganda, racism, social media, What has changed?
From the Brooklyn Daily Eagle, November 13, 1922:
Then, as now, Jews and Blacks are the top targets of hate crimes.
Then, as now, the hate is spread by propaganda - instead of traditional wartime propaganda, it is social media Right vs. Left propaganda.
Then, as now, Jews are discriminated against in college admissions - then because they weren't white enough, now because they are too white.
Then, as now, some Christian groups like Presbyterians lead the charge against Jews, pretending that their hate is based on a twisted sense of morality and ethics.
It's been a hundred years since this was written. What has really changed?
