Bklynr
GREENPOINT Repugnant words and a swastika were drawn over the face of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg on The Unstoppable Ruth Bader Ginsburg: American Icon book poster at a G Train subway stop.
Yesterday, a woman tweeted the image, which included the words Die Jew and Bitch along with the swastika. She said it was taken at the Nassau Avenue stop on the G Train. The woman did not want her Twitter linked, nor did she want to be named, but she called on City officials and said, This desecration of the RBGs face with anti-Semitic graffiti found in the NYC Subway system the city of acceptance and diversity, supposedly.
The MTA responded Were terribly sorry your friend and our other customers at Nassau Av had to see this abhorrent vandalism. We have zero tolerance for hateful imagery anywhere in our system and will ensure thats removed as soon as NYPD personnel have concluded their investigation.
The NYPD tweeted that the Hate Crimes Task Force was looking into the anti-Semitic act. Mayor Bill de Blasio and Governor Andrew Cuomo also weighed in.
