During a recent segment on NewsNation’s “Cuomo,” NYU Stern School of Business Professor of Marketing Scott Galloway expressed his concern about the rise of antisemitism on college campuses, comparing it to a severe anti-American activity. Galloway attributed this trend to students targeting perceived oppressors and how this has negatively affected the diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts on campuses.
Galloway acknowledged that while most protests were peaceful, there needed to be a clear distinction between civil protest and harassment and encampments. He also admitted that he had been blind to the extent of antisemitism in the U.S. prior to recent events, emphasizing the importance of speaking out against such discrimination.
Galloway urged people to not remain silent and to voice their opinions, highlighting the need for moderation and unity in the face of intolerance. He stressed that regardless of one’s views on Judaism or Israel’s actions, antisemitism should be condemned as un-American and unacceptable.
Overall, Galloway’s message is a call to action for individuals to stand up against antisemitism and uphold American values of inclusion and tolerance.
