Typical, continue to ignore the evidence put before you. You asked for "proof" and proof was supplied. And that's your response?
Seriously?
It would be humorous if it wasn't so sad.
Let’s see here, you keep changing your sources in order to further the false-equivalencies being propagated, and then whine and moan when it’s pointed out. Ok.

No, its the same source, if you only chose to read it. The source in the wiki page was from the Anti-defamation League's survey on antisemitism. But the source link was broken.
So I linked to another article with the source that explains things in plain detail for you.
You'd know that if you actually read what was presented.
But, typical, again. Don't like the answer so attack the source without any evidence to actually discredit the source
Compared to the overall 12% of American adults who are strongly anti-Semitic based on the ADL index of survey responses, Hispanics and African-Americans have higher rates of anti-Semitism, although Hispanic Americans born outside of the U.S. are significantly more likely than Hispanics born in the U.S. to hold anti-Semitic views (36%) compared to 14 percent of U.S.-born Hispanics. Among African-Americans, anti-Semitic views have remained consistently higher than the general population including the 20 percent of 2013 African-American survey respondents who expressed strongly anti-Semitic views (a decrease from 29% in 2011).
Again, its clear as day for those who don't have blinders on.
Interesting. I’m not African-American so not seeing the point in all that. Guess anything to make them look bad. Smh. LOL.

Uh-huh. You have one source TOTAL.
And that’s the basis for your constant denigration of African-Americans?
Prospecting.....the posts are flying around fast and furious right now, so I might have missed it, but did you say you're black? If so, I am so happy to hear that. It's reassuring. The blacks on this thread are demonstrating such resentment toward Jews, and, as you say, antisemitism is more prevalent among blacks than whites, that it's important that I keep in mind that not all blacks are hateful toward Jews - and that many, such as you, recognize the antisemitism (often couched as anti-Israelism) prevalent in the black community, and how wrong it is.
Thank you for contributing to this thread.
Yes, I am black.
And while most blacks aren't antisemitic, blacks (and the evidence is out there for all to see who don't willfully wear blinders) are disproportionately more likely to be antisemitic than other racial groups in this country.
And I lived it daily, both among members of my family (sad to say) and throughout the community. Comments about the Jews getting "special treatment," "taking over" and other things were common. Again, this isn't most black people (and no survey suggests that its most), but these sentiments are held by an alarmingly high percentage of blacks in the US.
Typical. Continue to ignore the evidence put before you. You asked for "proof" and proof was supplied, via the Anti-Defamation League. And that's your response?

Also, that Reine said I said "disgusting things about African Americans." (ironic given her targeted condemnation of Israel, and her criticism of American Jews caring more about Israel than America.) I never said anything " disgusting." Her resentment toward Jews is making her delusional. She even attributed a negative statement about blacks, which NOBODY said, to me. She made it up.
As far as the prevalence of antisemtitsm among blacks, or a greater degree of it anyway, it is probably due to ignorance and lack of education. I would be willing to bet that as you move up the education ladder, more highly educated blacks do not harbor the same level of antisemtitsm as the less educated blacks. And because, as a group, blacks have lower educational attainment, you will see more prejudice.

That’s one pathetically-weak false-equivalency.
This is humorous.
Discredit the source or keep quiet. Put up or shut up.
Let's review:
You demanded proof that there is a significant antisemitism problem in the black community. I provided such proof, via a survey by the Anti-defamation League, the premier organization studying antisemitism in the US. Also, not that it matters (as the proof is still supplied), if you actually read the wiki page (and the other page) as you claimed (), you'd see that ADL study is an ongoing, regular review, not some one time review of antisemitic attitudes. The findings have been relative consistent for decades now.
Keep at it. You're really convincing us plebes with your logic, evidence, and general knowledge on the issue
