We recently discovered that the main US-Israel police exchange program led by the Anti-Defamation League just took place this past July. While the ADL has proudly celebrated these trips in the past, they were curiously quiet about this one. Join us an action outside ADL Headquarters asking why they led a police exchange trip while Israel was bombing Gaza and codifying apartheid into law, and while the US was separating families. We’ll follow the action with a walk to the East River for a Tashlich ritual, where we reflect on our own shortcomings this year and collectively recommit to our values and principles.
