## Resource

New York City’s first Muslim mayor, Zohran Mamdani, is skipping the annual Israel Day parade — a bold break from tradition that underscores his unwavering pro-Palestinian stance. He’s already released a video honoring the Nakba, sparking backlash from Israel supporters who argue it ignores Jewish displacement and the Holocaust. While critics label his absence antisemitic, Mamdani insists he’s not anti-Jewish — even as police commissioner Jessica Tisch, who’s Jewish, marches in the parade. He’s pledged to protect Jewish New Yorkers while rejecting Israel’s current model, which he says prioritizes Jewish citizens over others. The move reflects a city grappling with shifting public sentiment amid the Gaza conflict — and Mamdani’s refusal to compromise his values.
