Voting Rights Act March - Part 2

From Cybercast News Service...

The David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies is urging Harry Belafonte, Dick Gregory, and Woody Allen to apologize for their recent comments comparing Bush to Hitler:

"Hitler had a lot of Jews high up in the hierarchy of the Third Reich. Color does not necessarily denote quality, content or value," Belafonte said in an exclusive interview with Cybercast News Service.That's incorrect, said Dr. Rafael Medoff, director of the David S. Wyman Institute for Holocaust Studies, which describes itself as a research and education institute focusing on America's response to the Holocaust."Some entertainers simply don't know much about history," said Medoff. "The fact is that there were no Jews in Hitler's hierarchy; the policies of America and Israel are not similar to those of Hitler; and African-American conservatives are not comparable to Nazis."

Ah, history...

Here's a good lesson I learned early on in childhood...

If you don't clearly know the facts or history behind your statement, then don't say it. But I guess that won't stop some of you from putting your foot in your mouths now will it.
