Mamdani can skip the Israel Day Parade. He can’t erase Jewish New York
The mayor of New York will do something no mayor has done in more than 60 years of the Israel Day Parade. He will intentionally not attend. His predecessors, Ed Koch and David Dinkins, Rudy Giuliani and Michael Bloomberg, Bill de Blasio and Eric Adams, men who agreed on almost nothing else, each marched the same blocks of Fifth Avenue in solidarity with the Jews of New York. Zohran Mamdani will not.
