His family survived the Holocaust.
He founded Human Rights Watch.
He directed the ACLU.
Now he’s saying Israel is engaged in genocide against Palestinians in Gaza.
Excellent CNN interview:

@spookyknickers @ask_aubry I wasn’t sure about the part where she seemed to have said something about his neighborhood. If she did make a disparaging remark it might well have been racial but it was unclear.

@CountryKeys79 @His_Majesty13@HenryLouisGates Man how dumb do you think people are? No the Mayflower wasn’t a slave ship but it’s likely that some of the *people on it* had descendants who owned slaves. And that’s likely why Ms. Davis, and probably some other black Americans, are genetically related to passengers.
@Steveamonowens @AmirTalai Gus the fireman? I get that you’re thinking people w age gaps can have friendly relationships and of course, yes, it’s true. But I’m concerned about your fictional and dated frame of reference and it’s total irrelevance to the situation in the post.
