8 YEAR OLD VIDEO SURFACES OF SLAIN ISRAELI EMBASSY WORKER SPEAKING OUT AGAINST ANTISEMITISM

Slain Israeli Embassy staffer Sarah Milgrim once spoke out against hateful antisemitic graffiti at her high school nearly a decade before she was killed in a terrorist attack outside the Capital Jewish Museum.

Milgrim, then a 17-year-old senior, voiced her concerns about the sickening messages and symbols — which included a swastika — that were painted on a storage shed on the campus of Shawnee Mission East High School in Prairie Village, Kan., in February 2017.

“It’s so ignorant that you would bring up a symbol like that brings so much pain to a lot of people. It’s not OK,” Milgrim told KSHB 41 in a resurfaced interview.

Milgrim had said the antisemitic tags outside the school caused her to fear for her safety.

“I worry about going to my synagogue and now I have to worry about safety at school and that shouldn’t be a thing,” she told the reporter.

Robert Milgrim said his daughter tried to turn the hateful messages into a chance to better the world., resulting in her taking a job with the Israeli Embassy in an effort to encourage peace in the Middle East.

“I can’t say it bounced off her, but she accepted it,” the elder Milgrim told reporters on Thursday. “She understood it and tried to be a good example so that maybe there would be less antisemitism. It didn’t turn out very well for her.”

Milgrim began working at the Israeli Embassy in DC a month after the Oct. 7, 2023, Hamas terrorist attack on Israel, her father told KSHB.

“She had a passion for learning, she had a passion for the environment and she had a passion for Israel,” Robert Milgrim said.

Milgrim and her boyfriend, Yaron Lischinsky, 28 were gunned down in the streets of Washington DC Wednesday night after leaving the American Jewish Committee’s ACCESS Young Diplomats Reception.
