Ice Cube responds to accusations of sharing anti-Semitic memes on Twitter
Ice Cube has responded to those accusing him of sharing anti-Semitic memes on Twitter.
The N.W.A. rapper has been tweeting frequently since the death of George Floyd last month, but it seems he reposted some images that have origins of anti-Semitism, and some that trace back to a Russian propaganda site.
He's been accused of anti-Semitism after posting an image of an occult symbol inside the Star of David. He also shared an image of bankers with exaggerated facial features (typically used in anti-Semitic imagery) playing Monopoly on the backs of black people.

Last night (10 June), Ice Cube responded to criticism over some of the images he's recently tweeted, "This is CUBE. My account has not been hacked. I speak for no organization. I only speak for the meek people of thee earth. We will not expect crumbles from your table. We have to power of almighty God backing us all over the earth. NO MORE TALKING. Repent."
In a second tweet, he adds, "I will continue to keep our people motivated, informed and provide simple solutions to help solve the problems that America has caused our people. These are my ac[tual] facts as I see it. You can take it or let it alone."
