We are horrified by the violent attack on a peaceful pro-Israel gathering in Boulder, Colorado, where participants were walking in support of the hostages in Gaza and calling for their release. The Jewish Federation of Detroit stands in solidarity with those targeted and is closely monitoring this deeply disturbing incident.
This is yet another violent assault on Jews in recent days. These shockingly evil attacks must not be ignored. We implore all people of conscience to speak out against antisemitism in all its forms and to demand that this hate be stopped. Silence is not an option.
As we prepare to enter the holiday of Shavuot, we pray for the victims and send strength to the Boulder Jewish community.
