Kyrie Irving’s recent suspension as a result of antisemitism he portrayed through social media has affected players like LeBron James and Kevin Durant.
Nonetheless, to settle any controversy that could have risen from his words, Durant followed up on Twitter saying: “Just wanna clarify the statements I made at shootaround, I see some people are confused. I don’t condone hate speech or anti-semetism , I’m about spreading love always. Our game Unites people and I wanna make sure that’s at the forefront.”
James extended this concern for racism when he spoke about the situation between Ye, formerly known as Kanye West, and the Jewish community. "Because it was some hate conversation going on there and I don't represent that," he said."Me, personally, I don’t condone any hate to any kind, to any race. To Jewish communities, to Black communities, to Asian communities. You guys know where I stand."
And it’s not just athletes who are being affected by the antisemitism and speaking out as a result. Former Presidentreferenced the controversy of Irving and West when he spoke at a campaign stop in Pittsburgh on Saturday. “Whether it’s out of malice or ignorance we’ve seen big celebrities posting vile, antisemitic conspiracy theories online. You don’t have to be a student of history to understand how dangerous that is,” said Obama.
