Jewish organizations are livid following reports that members of Ohio State University’s marching band, one of the most famous in college football, published a satirical songbook containing lyrics making fun of Jews being murdered in concentration camps.
Both the Anti-Defamation League and the Simon Wiesenthal Center issued scathing condemnations on Sunday after The Wall Street Journal published selections from the book.
“The Ohio State University marching band’s parody song-book, which reportedly contains misogynistic and anti-LGBT lyrics and a song mocking Holocaust victims, is outrageous and deeply offensive. Such lyrics not only demean entire groups of people, but also trivialize the horror that victims and their families have experienced,” ADL Ohio Regional Director Anita Gray said.
