Elected officials as well as community activists in Williamsburg gathered this morning to condemn recent racial attacks that have plagued both the Jewish community as well as the black community. The press conference was led by Councilwoman and Public Advocate-Elect Letitia “Tish” James. In addition there will be a second press conference held later today, being led by Senator and Brooklyn-Boro President-Elect Eric Adams.

Full details on both press conferences will be published later.
