George Floyd Killing as "Horrific Racist Act" and
Calls on Protesters to Refrain from Violence

NEW YORK - World Jewish Congress President Ronald S. Lauder condemns the killing of George Floyd
[[link removed]] as a “horrific racist act,” and calls on protesters to remain nonviolent in
expressing their legitimate anger.

“Like most Americans, I was sickened by the sight of a Minneapolis police
officer murdering a young African-American man in a horrific racist act
reminiscent of the worst moments in our nation’s history. But the answer to
racism and bigotry must never be rampant violence. I join leaders on all sides
of the political spectrum in calling for calm as we must all work to heal our
nation and bring all Americans, black and white, Jewish, Christian and Muslim,
together.

“At the same time, while I of course understand and share the anger at the
brutal killing of George Floyd, I am appalled by the unrestrained violence that
threatens to tear our nation apart. In the spirit of the Reverend Martin Luther
King, Jr., and Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel, we must all bear in mind that
nonviolent protest, not looting and destruction, is the only legitimate way for
all those who wish to affect our national agenda to take part in a sober,
bipartisan eradication of racism, antisemitism, and other hatreds in American
society.”
