Summary

A group of masked men with Nazi flags protested outside a performance of “The Diary of Anne Frank” in Howell, Michigan, shouting antisemitic slurs.

Audience members were reportedly frightened and needed escorts to their cars. The Fowlerville Community Theatre, which staged the play, described the protesters’ presence as a disturbing reminder of the fear faced by Holocaust victims.

The Anti-Defamation League condemned the display. The incident follows other recent displays of racism in the area.

    Only people against the genocide of Palestinians and against Zionism get to be called Nazis and anti-semites.

    People waving actual Nazi flags are “free speech advocates” or “demonstrators”, and certainly not Nazis.
