In the 1990s, a Jewish rabbi named Michael Weisser moved to Lincoln, Nebraska. Not long after settling in, he began receiving hateful, threatening messages and packages from a man named Larry Trapp, a local leader of the Ku Klux Klan.
Trapp was known for his racism, antisemitism, and white supremacist beliefs. From his wheelchair—he had lost both legs due to diabetes—he ran a hate hotline and harassed minorities.
But instead of responding with fear or hatred, Rabbi Weisser and his wife chose kindness.
They began leaving Larry messages of peace, love, and compassion. One day, the rabbi called and said, “Larry, I heard you’re disabled… I thought you might need a ride to the grocery store.”
At first, Larry was stunned. But over time, the rabbi’s compassion broke through his wall of hate.
Eventually, Larry Trapp did something unthinkable: he renounced the KKK, apologized publicly, and converted to Judaism. He said:
“I had all this hate, and nobody ever called me out with hate. They just showed me love.”
as family until he passed away.
🌟 Moral of the Story:
Kindness doesn’t always change people overnight—but it can melt even the hardest heart. Love is louder than hate.
