(Jewish Group) Berkeley billboards raising awareness about antisemitism left defaced, nonprofit says
THIS IS THE JEWISH GROUP! 'SPLAININ' NOT WELCOMED!A Jewish nonprofit group says two of their billboards in Berkeley about antisemitism have been defaced in the span of just a couple of days.
Drive along the streets of Berkeley and you might see billboards like this one. Designed in hot pink with messages designed to grab people's attention in a bid to fight back against antisemitism.
"We have Jewish resources and education for people who just want to know a little bit more," said Archie Gottesman.
Gottesman is the co-founder of JewBelong, the nonprofit who has billboards in 22 states.
