LOS ANGELES — Holocaust Museum LA said it's been the target of antisemitic attacks after Kanye West rejected the museum's invitation for a private tour.
The museum extended the invitation to West, who now goes by Ye, via an Instagram stories post on Oct. 11, following the rapper's recent inflammatory remarks about the Jewish community.
"Words matter and have consequences Ye," read the post, which BET.com grabbed a screenshot of. "We urge you to come visit us at Holocaust Museum LA to understand just how words can incite horrific violence and genocides. The Holocaust started with only words that sadly begat stereotypes, racial and religious tropes and blaming others and led the murder of six million Jews."
