Charles Barkley objects to antisemitism
Former basketball star Charles Barkley's spoken out against antisemitism in black society, making it clear that it can't be approved even in black communities:
On the most recent episode of the news and pop culture podcast, “The Steam Room,” co-host and former NBA player Charles Barkley condemned recent expressions of antisemitism from prominent black entertainers and athletes.I'm very glad somebody like Barkley is speaking reason in this whole topic. All the recent outbreak of racial violence following the George Floyd affair's done is lead to more division and strife that nobody needs, and isn't helping anybody. It's time to turn that all around.
Barkley used the beginning of his show, which comes out twice a month, to point out the hypocrisy of those who claim other groups are racist while promoting hatred toward both Jewish and white people.
“I want allies. I don’t want to alienate anybody,” Barkley said. “And to take shots at the Jewish race, or white race — I just don’t like it because it’s not right. And I had to call him on it because it’s really, it’s really been on my heart.”
