David Schwimmer criticizes Hollywood stars' silence on antisemitism

David Schwimmer has criticized Hollywood stars for their silence on rising antisemitism, urging them to publicly denounce racist abuse at the Anti-Defamation League's Never is Now conference. He specifically called out those who have built their careers on their Jewish identity or by portraying Jewish characters, expressing disappointment that many have chosen to remain silent. Schwimmer emphasized that while some may be active behind the scenes, a public stand would resonate with their fans and community. He stated, 'No one's asking you to solve the conflict of the Middle East. Just say that you stand with your Jewish friends, colleagues, and neighbors against hatred.' Gal Gadot also spoke at the event, advocating for the release of Israeli hostages in Gaza and confronting global antisemitism.
