Anti-Israel extremists labeled Anne Pasternak, Brooklyn Museum director, a 'white supremacist Zionist' and marked her home with a Hamas symbol, escalating protests against the institution.
Pro-Palestinian groups, including Within Our Lifetime, carried out demonstrations at the Brooklyn Museum, resulting in damage to artwork, scuffles with police, and verbal harassment of staff.
The vandalism included a red triangle, a symbol used by Palestinian militants to mark Israeli targets, leading to condemnation from American politicians as an act of antisemitism.
Politicians like NYC Comptroller Brad Lander and Mayor Eric Adams criticized the vandalism as crossing into antisemitism, emphasizing it as a criminal act that undermines safety and causes harm.
