Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan has always refuted that he is anti-Semitic, even though he has called Jews “termites” and worse.
“I wasn’t thinking about the anti-Semitic thing, but I don’t want to take down the post because I felt the message was powerful, and a lot of people did,” she said.
“I learned a lot from watching this powerful video,” wrote Handler on her Instagram page, which has 3.9 million followers.
Despite Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan’s history of bigoted remarks, the comedian countered that “Hitler was responsible for killing millions of lives. Farrakhan is just responsible for his own promotion of anti-Semitic beliefs.”
