I don’t interpret Kanye West as being anti-Semitic in that tweet at all.

He’s possibly disagreeing that Black Hebrews are Jewish, but he might also be commenting on that blacks are not as united as a people as Jews are around their identity and religion.

I saw most of this gentleman’s interview on Tucker Carlson, and I didn’t take his comments as anti-Semitism. He bemoaned that black people see themselves as a race instead of as “a people,” saying that Jews don’t talk about themselves as a race. And I think he’s right. He also has no love for Trump’s in-laws the Kushners. He was angered when he discovered that Jared’s brother owns a piece of one of his businesses. But disliking Jewish individual(s) like the Kushners doesn’t make one anti-Semitic

Where are you getting the idea that Jewish people are united around identity and religion?

It’s about as far from true as saying 1+1 = 4.

“blacks are not as united as a people as Jews are around their identity and religion.”

My Jewish acquaintances aren’t united around identity or religion. They just live their lives like everyone else. The blacks I know well (some in my family through marriage) are very united in religion, and they aren’t focused in their black identity. They live their lives like everyone else.

A child is kicked out of 50 schools, at what point do you stop blaming the schools and ask if the child is at fault?

Aren’t black Ethiopian Jews one of the 12 tribes?
