Hundreds of Jewish New Yorkers, Muslim activists, Christians and other allies protested Tuesday night outside Gracie Mansion, accusing Mayor Zohran Mamdani of failing to protect the city’s Jewish community and fueling extremist politics.

The rally, organized by EndJewHatred with support from Jewish, Christian, Muslim and interfaith groups, took place under heavy police presence across from the mayor’s official residence. Protesters waved American and Israeli flags, chanted “USA” and “Zohran Mamdani’s got to go,” and carried signs reading “Remove Mamdani” and “Antizionism gets Jews killed.”

Brooke Goldstein, founder of EndJewHatred, told the crowd, “Jewish rights are civil rights… we have to stop pretending this is the new normal… These are Islamist racist woke mobs.” Influencer Zach Sage Fox also addressed the rally, saying, “Our ancestors risked everything so that we could make sure that America was truly a land of religious freedom that Jews could thrive in, and New York City was built by Jews, Mr. Mamdani.”

Muslim activist Anila Ali, president of the American Muslim & Multifaith Women’s Empowerment Council, said Mamdani’s politics were alienating moderate Muslims and damaging relations between Muslims and Jews. “With Mamdani in office, we feel our religion is now hijacked once again and is being used by these Islamists,” she told Fox News ahead of the protest.

Ali said Muslims, Jews and Christians were standing together against extremist Islamist politics being presented as mainstream Islam. “They start with the Jewish people, that’s not where they’re going to end,” she warned.

The Muslim participation drew backlash from New York City Councilmember Shahana Hanif, who wrote on X, “May Allah condemn you to Jahannam.” New York State Assemblyman Kalman Yeger responded, “Pretty harsh reaction to people speaking in America.”
