A follow up note to our earlier message: We want to thank our local elected officials for their unequivocal condemnation of the antisemitic and hateful vandalism at Mansion House and the other properties involved in this incident. To be clear, intimidation and threats to the Brooklyn Museum's Jewish leadership threaten all of us and cannot be tolerated. We appreciate that the Mayor announced that the NYPD is conducting a criminal investigation. We have been in touch with the residents of Mansion House to offer our direct support, and hope others will do the same. Read more about the incident in the Brooklyn Eagle and The New York Times. |
