Hi there,

The job of a journalist is to go to where the silence is — especially when those in power seek to silence voices that question or challenge power. That is what we do at Democracy Now! day in and day out, and we're able to do it because of financial support from people like you — people who trust and depend on our independent reporting. If you believe that freedom of speech and freedom of the press are essential to the functioning of a democratic society, please donate today. Thanks to a group of generous donors, all donations made today will be DOUBLED, which means your $15 gift is worth $30. Every dollar makes a difference. Thank you so much.

Zohran Mamdani Joins NYC Jewish Community to Say “No Fascists, No Pharaohs” at Passover Action

HeadlineApr 18, 2025

Here in New York City, members of Jews for Racial and Economic Justice, their allies, and elected leaders gathered Thursday for the group’s annual “Seder in the Streets” on the sixth night of Passover. The protest took place under the banner of “No fascists, no pharaohs.” New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani spoke at the event.

Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani: “And we know that in this moment in this city, when one in four New Yorkers is living in poverty, when 500,000 children go to sleep hungry every night, when more than 90% of New Yorkers agree that affordability is a serious issue, that this freedom is not just a right to live with our families in homes, but to be able to afford that home, to afford that dinner that we can share together as we break that bread.”
