Diary of Anne Frank: Demonstrators wave Nazi flags outside local theater performance in Michigan

CNN  

CNN — A group of people carrying Nazi flags demonstrated outside a community theater performance of “The Diary of Anne Frank” in Livingston County, Michigan, in a display of antisemitism. Several masked men showed up waving Nazi flags and reportedly shouted antisemitic and racist slurs outside the American Legion Post 141 in Howell on Saturday during the play, according to CNN affiliate WXYZ. “They were saying awful antisemitic things that I don’t even feel comfortable repeating myself,” Sutliff told CNN on Tuesday. The Anti-Defamation League’s regional office in Michigan said on social media it was “disgusted by the far-right extremists who praised Hitler and waved Nazi flags outside of an American Legion hosting the play.” The county has faced similar displays of racism this year.
