Nick Cannon and Rabbi Abraham Cooper Sit Down for Extended Interview on Dangers of Anti-Semitism

For the latest episode of Cannon's Class, host Nick Cannon—whose recent anti-Semitic comments cost him his ViacomCBS relationship—was joined by Rabbi Abraham Cooper.

The discussion, which spans across two separate YouTube uploads and runs more than 100 minutes in length, sees the two going deep on a number of topics directly connected with the continued prevalence of anti-Semitism, be it through the spreading of conspiracy theories built on hate, or through a general lack of education on the history of violence that's been carried out against the Jewish community.

Early on in the interview, Cannon revealed that he first learned of Rabbi Abraham Cooper—the associate dean and director of Global Social Action Agenda at the Simon Wiesenthal Center in New York—after his comments during a previous interview with Professor Griff started to be widely condemned.

"I feel there is such a connection and kindred spirit to the Jewish community … As someone who is studying theology and on a mission to receive a PhD in divinity, I connected with the Hebrew community," Cannon told Cooper in the new interview. "It's so deep."
