Anti-Defamation League

Jewish and Muslim community leaders tell WLRN about the disturbing increase in anti-Semitic and Islamophobic incidents in South Florida.

The report's author said one reason hate groups are finding Florida attractive is the ability to spread propaganda year-round.

A member of the national executive committee of the Anti-Defamation League and the Jewish Federation of Sarasota-Manatee said this includes members of organizations such as the Proud Boys and Three Percenters.

Antisemitic fliers left in driveways in the Orlando area and around Florida are part of a disturbing trend.

The Anti-Defamation League said it’s concerned by the targeting of journalists on social media in the past year.
