(Jewish Group) Hired to promote diversity at European fashion magazine sorry for Holocaust jokes
Blogger hired to promote diversity at European fashion magazine says sorry for Holocaust joke tweetsA blogger and model newly hired to promote diversity at a large European fashion magazine has apologized for making Holocaust jokes on Twitter.
Stephanie Yeboah, a contributing editor at Grazia, offered the apology on Thursday in a statement after Private Eye magazine found her statements from recent years.
In one of the tweets, she wrote: “AUSCHWITZ Gas Chamber Music LMAO SMH [laughing my arse off, shaking my head].”
In another, she tweeted: “Every Jew has an attic, but not every attic has Jews.” She has also written that the attention paid to Holocaust remembrance is eclipsing crimes committed against “brown people.”
