Philly anti-Israel groups plan boycott of Jewish businesses before Kristallnacht anniversary
The graphic explicitly singles out several dining locations in the city, displaying crossed-out warning icons over the names Mac Mart, K'Far Cafe, Huda, Goldie, Dizengoff, and Schlesinger's.
Philadelphia-based anti-Israel activists are planning a boycott of Jewish-owned and Israeli-associated businesses, scheduled to occur on November 8, which coincides with the anniversary of the 1938 Kristallnacht pogrom. Organized by Philly Bike On Your Left, in partnership with Boycott CookNSolo and Philly Solidarity Calendar, the event aims to discourage patronage of specific establishments such as Mac Mart, K Far Cafe, Huda, Goldie, Dizengoff, and Schlesinger's.
The promotional materials feature a bicycle graphic with red prohibition symbols targeting the listed businesses. The organizers assert that the protest is a form of solidarity with the Palestinian community and other oppressed groups. The planned boycott has sparked outrage from local community leaders and advocacy organizations, who deem it a clear case of antisemitism.
They have called for strong condemnation from local and state authorities, urging Philadelphians to support Jewish businesses and reject this discriminatory campaign.
