Nearly every KarJenner has expressed their love and support for the Jewish community amid the recent antisemitism coming from Kim Kardashian’s ex, Kanye West.
On Sunday, October 23, Khloé Kardashian shared a post from comedian Amy Schumer to her Instagram Story. The post has a black background and blue text, which reads, “I support my Jewish friends and the Jewish people.”
The morning of Monday, October 24, Kendall Jenner, Kylie Jenner, and Kris Jenner all shared the same graphic on their IG Stories. Kim Kardashian, who filed for divorce from Kanye West in February 2021, shared her own words on her IG Story. “Hate speech is never OK or excusable,” she wrote. “I stand together with the Jewish community and call on the terrible violence and hateful rhetoric towards them to come to an immediate end.”

“If you don’t know what to say, you can just say this in your feed,” Seinfeld wrote in the post’s caption.
Earlier this month West shared and (after receiving backlash) deleted antisemitic comments that are too alarming and disturbing to repeat. Over the weekend, a group encouraged by West’s comments appeared at a Los Angeles overpass to show their support of his antisemitic statements. There has also been a recent distribution of antisemitic fliers in the area, including fliers that blame gun control measures on Jewish people.
“On Saturday, demonstrators gave Nazi salutes as they stood behind a large overpass banner that read, ‘Kanye is right about the Jews,’ according to images collected by anti-discrimination organizations and Jewish residents appalled by the group’s message,” the Los Angeles Times.

On Sunday, Kim Kardashian closed out her 42nd birthday weekend with a long dinner with Ivanka Trump in Beverly Hills. A source from inside the restaurant they dined at told TMZ that the women discussed how to handle a family member who says things you disagree with, in what was likely a discussion about West’s antisemitism. Trump converted to Judaism when she married her husband, Jared Kushner, in 2009.
