A spokesperson for the organization told the New York Post, “After review, we can confirm that one of the participants was part of an ADL high-school level summer internship in 2019. We fully condemn her actions and hope that the apology she issued is the first step towards working to repair the harm and deep hurt her actions caused.” The ADL then scrubbed any mention of the intern from its website, including a blog post announcing her as one of the 12 student leaders joining the program in which Deyhimi was described as “extremely passionate about fighting racial profiling and championing gender equality.”You can’t make this up! One of the students at @nyuniversity who ripped down posters of the hostages taken by Hamas terrorists has the @ADL in her Linkedin bio.

Deyhimi, an activist who is “extremely passionate about fighting racial profiling,” admitted what she did in an Instagram post after the video circulated on social media. She wrote in a now-deleted post, “I have found it increasingly difficult to know my place as a biracial brown woman, especially during these highly volatile times.”The @ADL still has me listed in their “glossary of extremism” because I think men can’t get pregnant but they won’t list their intern who was filmed ripping down posters of missing Jews who Hamas terrorists took hostage!

“I have felt more and more frustrated about the time we currently find ourselves in, and misplaced that anger into actions that are not an accurate representation of who I am as a person,” she added. “In this age of social media and digital footprint, these moments of anger are selfish and self-absorbed, and not reflective of who I am as a person or who my family had raised me to be.” Deyhimi was also previously featured in a New York Times article in December 2022 about style choices of NYU students clubbing inside the basement of a shuttered barbershop. NYU has not said if Deyhimi or her accomplices will face any disciplinary action. Read more at: ThePostMillennial.comYazmeen Deyhimi has issued an apology. pic.twitter.com/kyK9E47qMl
