Nearly 30 Seattle museum staffers have shut down the art center in protest of its new “Confronting Hate Together’’ exhibit, claiming portions of the show “conflate anti-Zionism as antisemitism.”

The workers, who form about half of the staff at the Wing Luke Museum, stormed off the job Wednesday, the day the exhibit opened, forcing the site to close and vowing to remain on strike until their demands are met.

“Zionism has no place in our communities and being anti-Zionist goes hand in hand with our own liberation as AA/NHPI,” wrote the disgruntled staffers, who work at the only pan-Asian art and history museum in the United States. “Our solidarity with Palestine should be reflected in our AA/NHPI institutions.”

I can’t stand people who use the terms “paradigm,” “conflate,” or “social construct.” 😜

The people that COULD fire them probably feel the exact same way the workers do about it.
It IS Seattle after all. Totally full of leftist bigots.

The Hamas wing has a museum. Travel brochures need to be more specific.

Why is it we do not ever see the term “pro-semitism”?

Throw ‘em in a pit and make them listen to Trump speeches on loop for 72 hours. No food no water. Fair?

FYI: "FIRE THEM."

Your talking about the San-Fran-FREAK-O, of the north, a.k.a. the People's Republic of Seattle.

More like they'll throw a parade for these A$$-Hats.

I live 50 miles north of the sewer San-Fran-FREAK-O.

If I had done that at any job I ever had (except the Navy), it would have been treated as a resignation.

Seattle museum staffers threaten to smear feces on themselves “until their demands are met”.
