US Jews march on Washington over rising hate
Dozens of groups protested in the Capitol in a bid to raise awareness about antisemitism
Dozens of Jewish and non-Jewish groups marched on Washington DC on Sunday in a bid to raise awareness about growing antisemitism in the country.
The ‘No Fear’ solidarity rally featured well-known names, including Israeli actress and author Noa Tishby, plus Elisha Wiesel, son of the late
Holocaust survivor and Nobel laureate Elie Wiesel, and groups from other cities. They were joined by Rabbi Jeffrey Myers of the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, where 11 people were killed
and six injured in an antisemitic attack in October 2018.
Co-sponsors included the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), American Jewish Committee, B’nai Brith International, Jewish National Fund, and Hadassah and was supported by various denominations.
