Jewish/Israeli symbols should be kept to a minimum
The ADL tracked 6,274 antisemitic incidents across the United States in 2025; the annual count fell from 2024, though violent attacks continued, and risk varies by region. On October 21, a woman allegedly harassed Rabbi Yosef Krish before jabbing him in the back with a syringe on West 47th Street in Manhattan; he was treated at a hospital. In late October, a Utah man was indicted over alleged December 2025 threats to blow up a synagogue; investigators said they found six functional pipe bombs, rifles and bomb-making materials at his Ogden home. On October 28, a swastika was spray-painted on both sides of a Jewish candidate’s campaign sign in Newburgh, New York, and police are investigating it as a hate crime. Stay alert around demonstrations and Jewish institutions, and check local advisories and security updates....

There is antisemitic and anti-israel graffiti all over the place, with a “Heil Hitler” written on a wall in the main corner of the shopping area. The authorities don’t seem to care.

I live in New York City (specifically in Brooklyn) and proudly display my Jewishness, just like hundreds of thousands of us do here. There’s no basis to feel unsafe to the point of hiding your Jewishness.

While visiting, I noticed a red, green and black flag and was immediately alarmed. Later, I was notified that it was the pan-African flag. Other than that, I have felt safe in New York City. I was however shocked to see Ceasefire and Free Palestine flags on Jewish homes in areas such as Park Slope.
