The Renewed Hate That Kanye Created

Overview

Longtime watchdogs of hate speech say there’s nothing new about the kinds of antisemitic comments that rapper Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, and others have made recently. But what has struck some experts is how blatant the comments about Jews are at a time when incidents of harassment, vandalism, and violence have been at their highest levels since at least the 1970s. Recently, Jewish community centers throughout Detroit and synagogues in New Jersey were evacuated due to bomb threats, and in Sacramento, the sign in front of a synagogue was set on fire and desecrated with swastikas. Dr. Phil is joined by a panel of guests to discuss recent incidents of antisemitism and solutions.
