left out, doesn’t need to excerpt.

“Thus, it is hypocritical beyond words that they continue to align themselves with Louis Farrakhan, who is an unapologetic bigot that spews hate targeting the Jewish community, LGBTQ community, and others,” she continued. “There is no ambiguity on this issue. Either the Women’s March leaders endorse the vilification of the Jewish people or they don’t. It’s that simple. This episode only reaffirms the need to activate and empower new leaders in the feminist movement who show up to fight for the civil and human rights of all people, not just some people.”

Farrakhan is the leader of the Nation of Islam, a black supremacist group most famous for producing Malcolm X, who later left the movement and was assassinated by its members.

According to the Jerusalem Post, Mallory posted a series of defensive posts on Twitter after being criticized, saying, “Funny how folks interpreted my mention of one having enemies the same as Jesus, as me describing a certain group of people. That’s your own stuff.”

Perez — who has also praised Farrakhan on social media — later said, “there are no perfect leaders” when called on to distance herself from Farrakhan’s most recent statements.

Sarsour, a religious Muslim, took part in a 2015 event sponsored by Farrakhan’s organization and later praised his “youthful demeanor.”

He hates whites too. Don't expect any support from white progressives when it comes to antisemitism. Which doesn't relate to race. Or apparently gender, Islam isn't particularly friendly toward the conduct of western women. Who don't know their place.
