Farrakhan follower on Florida city council skips vote on antisemitism resolution
2023-09-16
[IsraelTimes] Brother John Muhammad acknowledges ’urgent need to combat antisemitism’ but expresses concerns over free speech and ’loose’ definitions

Days after a synagogue in St. Petersburg, Florida, was forced to evacuate services following a bomb threat, the local city council met to discuss a resolution about antisemitism. The resolution was about whether to endorse a definition of antisemitism that its authors and local advocates both say can be a useful first step in fighting hatred of Jews.

Notably refusing to cast a vote: a controversial council member and member of the Nation of Islam who voiced multiple objections to the definition, questioned Jewish community leaders about who constitutes a Jew and left the chambers so that he would be marked absent during the vote.
