Miami Leaders Stand Strong Against Antisemitism at Annual Press Conference

Twenty-one Miami-area mayors, vice mayors and community leaders attended the 3rd Annual Standing Strong Together Against Antisemitism Press Conference, hosted by the Greater Miami Jewish Federation's Jewish Community Relations Council. The gathering took place at The Nova Music Festival Exhibition in North Miami, an immersive installation honoring the victims of the brutal attack at The Nova Music Festival on October 7, 2023, in Israel. The exhibit pays tribute to the event founded on peace and love, tragically disrupted by the largest massacre in music history, and includes remnants salvaged from the festival grounds. Headlined by Miami-Dade County Mayor Daniella Levine Cava, all of the press conference speakers forcefully condemned the global rise in antisemitism and stood in solidarity with Israel. Federation Chair of the Board Lily Serviansky and Interim President & CEO Scott Kaufman were joined by our partners at ADL, AJC and the Israeli Consulate.
