Anti-BDS Rally Held In South Florida

A rally was held in Cutler Bay, Florida, on August 28 to protest the Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions movement against Israel. Despite forecasts of stormy weather, hundreds attended. The high-energy rally included a musical performance by YouTube sensation rapper Ari Lesser.

Rally-goers wore t-shirts which read “BDS is Hate” and held signs with slogans like “U.S. and Israel, United Against Hate” and “BDS=Antisemitism.”

The message of the rally was clear: if you support BDS, you are supporting hate. Elected officials, private citizens, and representatives of various organizations spoke out against the BDS movement.

Rally co-sponsors included the Zionist Organization of America, NCSY, Rolling Thunder, and the Israeli-Florida Friendship League.
