Jewish radio host apologizes to black author after reading passage from his book about gassing white people

The Canadian Broadcasting Corporation, or CBC, is the NPR of the north, and author Ben Philippe was on as a guest to talk about his new book.

Sure, I’ll Be Your Black Friend hit shelves today and I can’t tell you how excited I am for you to read it. Thank you to everyone who has picked up a copy so far!!https://t.co/b4hmFhBJTu pic.twitter.com/TZ9pRAbsMx

According to the publisher, the book follows in the same “biting, hilarious vein” as his previous works, but a passage about gassing a room full of white people made the Jewish host do a double-take.

Maybe it’s funnier in context?

I agree it's disturbing and shocking…and isn't that one of the aims of art? How many of you listened to that clip with an open mind?

This author is describing where he thought a race war would end up. I don't think he's advocating for it…rather the opposite.

Right…
Imagine a white "artist" doing the same

Seems like overkill. Literally.

It’s disgusting that this guy is given even a minute of airtime.

I’d never advocate burning or banning his book, but to allow him a public forum to discuss his writing legitimizes his overt racism and proves the CBC is also racist and corrupt to the core.

This interview, his work, is his "pretense of unity" his, "speech to civility."
The written murder is his fantasy.
His "White friends" are just lucky he's too much of a coward to make his violent fantasy come true.
You can hear how adrenalized he's getting.

The host was too much of a coward to actually finish her thought and give it to him.

She just was sorry about whatever it was that compelled him to write that.

The CBC interviewer is a cowardly disgrace. The author is an unrepentant racist.

A Jewish woman feels sorry for a man who wants to burn down white people only because of their skin color?

Now this indeed is a new world. And Canadian tax payers are funding it. ???

You don't have to be the grandchild of Holocaust survivors to be sickened by such overt racism, but when you lack the chutzpah to call it out, you'd better check your moral compass. "Cause its broken, sister.

This fool needs to stop larping his projected fantasies. The interviewer needs to stop deferring to race baiting authors in the name of inclusion. Is any paycheck worth that?

If that rhetoric was used for any other group you would end up in jail.

— Santiago Becerra (@SantiBecerraC) April 26, 2021

Why is this being allowed? If he said this about a certain other group it would be branded a hate crime. He would be cancelled, deplatformed and arrested.

We’d honestly like to hear more of the interview … maybe there’s something here we just don’t get? Is this a bit?
