דער קערפער פֿון השם"Mainstream #Jewish organizations were silent after #Jewishmedia reported that #ZohranMamdani, mayor of #NewYorkCity, named #PhylisaWisdom the new head of the Mayor’s Office to Combat #Antisemitism.
#Wisdom, executive director of the #NewYork Jewish Agenda, a progressive group, has been critical of #Chassidic schools, which she has said don’t provide adequate secular education. Many Chassidic leaders have accused her of being anti-Chassidic.
“Picking Phylisa Wisdom to run an office tasked with combating antisemitism is probably the biggest gaslighting #Mamdani has done so far,” stated #YaakovKaplan, vice-chair of #Brooklyn Community Board 12.
“90% of all #antisemitic attacks were against #Orthodox #Jews,” he wrote. “Picking someone for this office that #OrthodoxJews see as an adversary is mind-boggling.” 👀
