Was the article accurate?
If Ford was a flaming anti-Semite, that might help to explain Deabornistan.

Poor Mayor, had no Confederate statues to tear down, so he burned magazines. Not sure that's "confronting" hate. But Henry was a prominent Democrat, ran in what I believe was his only attempt at public office at the urging of KKK fan Woodrow Wilson. Democrat, friend of Wilson, couldn't be antisemitic. Not sure how erasing history helps, other than politicians erasing their own malfeasance.

Yes but anti-semitism is acceptable now.
Not all history is pretty and it’s not going to change.
The perception might change but that’s it.
“The Dearborn Historical Museum Commission called on the mayor to rescind his decision and allow the magazine to be mailed to its more than 200 subscribers”
200, Buuwaaahaha.
He doesn’t want to upset his islamists. Cowardly mayor. He’s perfect for them. Until they cut his throat.
Isn’t Mich heavily populated with anti Semites?
This over a magazine with a 200 subscriber mailing list?
Who wold have seen it?
So... printing actual quotes might distract from you getting votes. Got it.
The cover includes a black-and-white photo of Ford next to the quote: “The Jew is a race that has no civilization to point to, no aspiring religion, no great achievement in any realm.”
But yeah, putting that quote on the cover of a magazine is a bit over-the-line.
When I was a history major back in the 80’s word on the street was that if you wrote a scholarly, well-researched and documented piece on the darker aspects of Andrew Carnegie that the Carnegie Foundation would cut you a check to NOT publish it.
Ford’s anti-Semitism is widely known and well-documented.
Part of me wonders if it was a factor in convincing so many Muslims to settle in Dearborn.
However, this plus the throw-in about Pittsburgh make me think this is another attempt to use "right wing anti-Semitism" (which they call "traditional anti-Semitism") to distract from left wing anti-Semitism.
Also, opposition to anti-Semitism has nothing to do with "diversity" or "inclusion." It has to do with submission to G-d and His election of `Am Yisra'el.
Early Model T Fords were stamped with a Nazi swastika on the steering column. When Hitler nearly conquered the world, the practice was ended.
I know this because I saw it on a friend’s Model T. When I expressed my amazement at Ford’s anti-Semitism, he allowed me to borrow his copy of the Model T encyclopedia.
I learned Ford was a madman, and it wasn’t only his Nazi support that proved his lunacy...
I just completed a thorough search of the internet, and could not find a single article or image that verifies that fact. Apparently, our Internet Overlords did a fine job of erasing Ford’s past.
“It’s an ugly side of the patriarch of one of America’s greatest families and founder of one of its best-known companies,” writes McGraw.

Fired for expressing truth. Censorship has gone viral in Michigan.
Booker T. Washington one said, “A lie doesn’t become truth, wrong doesn’t become right, and evil doesn’t become good, just because it’s accepted by a majority.”
It seems that the majority in Michigan have embraced “the religion that should not be named”, and now support that religion’s foundation declaration of anti-semitism.
Disgusting bump
