Brooklyn, NY - Students and parents from Leon M. Goldstein High School are planning planned to protest on Shore Blvd just outside of the Kingsboro Community College to the nearby Holocaust Memorial Park to denounce a student's masquerading as Adolf Hitler in school for Halloween.
Penny Lee Berman, president of the Brooklyn school's parent association, said 16-year-old Walter Petryk's stunt, was hurtful to fellow students and the Sheepshead Bay neighborhood, which is home to a large Jewish population.
The so-called Walk of Respect and Tolerance will start at the school.
Petryk has insisted his costume was an exercise in free expression and just a parody of the reviled Nazi dictator. He could face a suspension for defying repeated requests by school administrators to take off the get-up.
