According to reports, a swastika was burned into a picnic table this week at a newly refurbished public park near Steamboat Springs High School. Rabbi Kolby Morris-Dahary of Har Mishpacha congregation in Steamboat Springs, speaking on behalf of the community coalition STAND (Steamboat Team to disrupt Antisemitism and Discrimination), said:
“We are deeply hurt, saddened, and outraged at another antisemitic hate crime in our community…Let us come together to remember, be aware and vigilant, and collectively hold this behavior accountable. We remain hopeful that this hate will turn towards kindness, ignorance will turn to informed compassion, and Steamboat Springs can begin to experience redemption from discrimination in all forms.” Read full article:
