Anchorage Mayor Defends Use Of Yellow Stars Of David To Protest Mask Mandates
HuffPost
Mayor Dave Bronson said using the Nazi-style Star of David to protest mask mandates is "actually a credit" to Jewish people. It is not.
The mayor of Anchorage, Alaska, defended the wearing of Nazi-style Stars of David to protest mask mandates during a public meeting that also led to four arrests.
The second night of public hearings about a possible mask mandate in Alaska’s largest city descended into antisemitism on Wednesday when some community members showed up to the public meeting wearing yellow Stars of David with the words “Do not comply” written across them. The stars were in the style of those used by the Nazis in German-occupied Europe during World War II to identify Jewish people as part of the genocide of more than 6 million Jews in the Holocaust.
One Anchorage resident, Christine Hill, told the Anchorage Daily News she wore the star to draw a comparison between the atrocity of genocide and a mask mandate.
