Opinion: To Fight Anti-Semitism, German Tabloid Prints Cutout Kippah

Bild is a tabloid, a German daily newspaper best-known for blaring headlines, fleshy photos and breathless coverage of gossip and scandals.

But this week, the newspaper ran a kippah on its front page: a Jewish skullcap that signifies reverence for God above. It's blue and white, with Stars of David. Readers could cut out the kippah and wear it.

"Wear it, so that your friends and neighbors can see it," wrote Julian Reichelt, the paper's editor-in-chief. "Explain to your children what the kippah is. ... Post a photograph with the kippah on Facebook, Instagram, Twitter. Go out onto the streets with it."
