Where Hate Meets the Street:
Mayors on the Front Line

When hate meets the street, mayors are on the front line, not only responding to incidents, but setting the tone for how the entire community responds.

Jewish communities should not be isolated, erased, or expected to confront antisemitism alone. Mayors, county executives, and municipal leaders across the Northeast are uniquely positioned to build the broader solidarity necessary to respond, bringing communities together around a shared responsibility to confront hate.

The Combat Antisemitism Movement will convene mayors and municipal leaders from across the Northeast for a practical, solutions-oriented discussion. Building on the model established at CAM's Savannah Regional Convening, the program focuses on how local leaders can turn solidarity into sustained action by building bridges across communities and equipping mayors with the tools to respond effectively.
