South Florida Community Responds to Charlottesville Violence
In the wake of the violence instigated by white supremacists and neo-Nazis in Charlottesville, VA, on August 12, our Federation joined with other South Florida Federations and like-minded community organizations to release a full-page ad in the Sun Sentinel and an Op-Ed in The Miami Herald. These collaborative efforts to unequivocally denounce racism, anti-Semitism and bigotry demonstrate the strong bond of unity that permeates our Jewish and interfaith communities. They also amplify our Federation’s previous public statement decrying the despicable acts of hatred perpetrated in Charlottesville.
