Summary
On the Friday edition, Howard Beck welcomes back author (and former player) Dan Grunfeld, to discuss the issues stemming from Kyrie Irving’s promotion of an antisemitic film. How should the NBA respond? What role can the league play in educating people about antisemitism? Grunfeld’s father Ernie is the only player in NBA history to come from Holocaust survivors – a journey detailed in Dan’s book, By the Grace of the Game: The Holocaust, a Basketball Legacy, and an Unprecedented American Dream.
