A Beastie Boys‘ memorial park in Brooklyn was covered in Nazi graffiti over the weekend. Dedicated to the late Adam Yauch, the park had a swastika with the words “Go Trump” painted on it.
The Adam Yauch Park is located in Brooklyn Heights and was named for the Jewish rapper from the hit 1980s rap band The Beastie Boys.

This is yet another incident of hate crime to have been committed since Donald Trump’s election as President of The United States. Such incidents have been on the rise in the last ten days.
Adam Yauch was also known as MCA. He and the other members of The Beastie Boys were all Jewish. Yauch died in 2012 of parotid cancer at the age of 47.
