Long Journey of Redemption Begins For Sugar Tits

The Museum of Jewish Heritage has invited actor Mel Gibson for a visit as part of his “journey of understanding” following an anti-Semitic tirade during a California traffic stop.

“I have followed with great interest the events of the past several days and take your recent public apology very seriously,” museum director David Marwell said in his August 2 letter. “In that spirit, I would like to invite you to visit the Museum of Jewish Heritage: A Living Memorial to the Holocaust.”

He added: “We hope that you will consider this offer in good faith and look forward to the opportunity of participating in your journey of understanding.”

The letter from the museum director was sent care of Gibson’s publicist, Alan Nierob.

The museum, in Lower Manhattan, teaches about the Holocaust within the context of 20th-century Jewish history.

I’m sure this is just the beginning of many offers that will come rolling in for the man who uttered the now-famous line “Sugar Tits.”
