Jamie Foxx is attempting to clear up a misunderstanding stemming from a since-deleted social media post that was criticized by some as antisemitic.
In a text post shared to his Instagram on Saturday, the Oscar-winning actor wrote, "I want to apologize to the Jewish community and everyone who was offended by my post. I now know my choice of words have caused offense and I'm sorry. That was never my intent."
Critics of the post interpreted "they" as the Jewish people, and historically antisemitism has been linked to the belief Jews are responsible for the death of Jesus.
