On Nov. 18, residents of Brooklyn Heights in New York discovered spray-painted swastikas and the words “Go Trump” at a local park named in honor of Adam “MCA” Yauch, a member of the Beastie Boys who played at the park as a kid who died in 2012 after battling cancer. Yauch’s mother was Jewish and his father was Catholic. He began practicing Buddhism in 1994. His fellow Beastie Boys members Adam “Ad-Rock” Horovitz and Michael “Mike D” Diamond (who are of Jewish heritage) called for an anti-hate rally this weekend at the park.
