These Atlanta students apparently could not see how wrong they were.
Students from a private school were suspended after a photo posted online showed them playing “Jews vs. Nazis” beer pong at a house party, according to WSB-TV.
The photo showed cups filled with beer in the shape of a Jewish Star of David on one side of the table with a Nazi swastika at the opposite end.
Five students from the Lovett School in Atlanta were suspended and the one who set up the game and took the picture was expelled. A rabbi named Peter Berg was the one who reported the picture and made the school aware of it.
“The fact that someone could even conceive of such a game, and then play it and think it’s funny is beyond words,” Berg told WSB-TV.
The students playing this game comes at a time where there’s been a rise in antisemitism around the country.
Berg said this issue has to be stopped and people need to understand the hurt of antisemitism.
“We as a community, as a country, have to get our hands and wrap our hands around the problem of hate speech in general, to understand how horrifying that image is to Jewish people,” Berg said.
