JCRC-LI’s Program Manager spent two inspiring days at “Together at the Crossroads,” hosted by the David Merage Foundation for Confronting Antisemitism.

Approximately 450 community, faith, law enforcement, civic, and elected leaders representing different religions and racial backgrounds came together to build relationships, strengthen allyship, and foster greater understanding and unity.

JCRC-LI was proud to participate and grateful to AJC for the invitation.

A special thank you to David and Laura Merage for bringing people together from across the country to learn from outstanding speakers, engage with exceptional facilitators, and work toward a shared goal: confronting antisemitism and combating hate in all its forms.

The fight against antisemitism cannot fall on the Jewish community alone. It requires allies, meaningful partnerships, and people willing to stand up for one another.

We are grateful to everyone who came together at this conference and remain committed to strengthening the relationships and partnerships we are building here on Long Island and beyond.

In his statement marking the 3rd anniversary of the October 7th terrorist attack on Israel, the first anniversary in which all the hostages are finally home or buried, Mayor Mamdani dashed off four sentences acknowledging the tragedy of that day, without ever mentioning that the targets were Jewish, before pivoting back to his preferred narrative, spending the bulk of his remarks on the events that transpired afterwards. Let us be clear Mr Mayor: it does not honor the dead to pit them in a contest against each other. It is shameful. Today Jewish New Yorkers across the 5 boroughs walked through metal detectors to drop off our children at preschool, thanked the police officers posted outside our synagogues for keeping us safe, tucked in our Jewish stars on the subway, and felt the gut punch of grief remembering the 1,200 innocent people who were slaughtered in their homes, in front of their families, and dancing at a music festival just because they were Jewish.
The Mayor’s role is to bring people together for the good of all New Yorkers, and he continues to fall short of that goal.
None of this is normal and we refuse to accept it.
