Dear John,
Outraged. Appalled. Incredulous.
How can Adidas continue to do nothing as the ripple effects of Ye’s (formerly Kanye West) antisemitic rants continue to be felt across the world? It’s unconscionable.

It’s been weeks since Adidas claimed they were reviewing their partnership with Ye, yet their silence is deafening — and dangerous. As the rapper continues to spew antisemitic rhetoric daily, extremist groups have seized this opportunity to advance their hate-filled agendas. Members of the Goyim Defense League hung a banner over the 405 Freeway in Los Angeles on Saturday saying “Kanye is right about the Jews” while members of the GDL stood above it delivering the Nazi salute. And they’re not alone in spreading the vitriol.
While Adidas has rightfully acted against other partners for offensive behavior, claiming it did not jibe with their values, they continue their relationship with one of the most outspoken and brazen antisemites in the world. And their silence has only emboldened him, as exemplified by his public statement that “I can say anti-Semitic things, and Adidas can’t drop me.”
It’s past time for Adidas to do the right thing, condemn Ye’s atrocious actions, and be a leader against this hatred.

Please join us in contacting Adidas and demanding they condemn Kanye’s antisemitism and re-evaluate their partnership. They must #RunAwayFromHate.
