DEMONSTRATION

On our way to the 59E59 Theater on East 59th, just east of the southeast corner of Central Park, we chose to ride the subway to Columbus Circle, the southwest corner of Central Park, and walk eastward along the southern border of Central Park on 59th to the theater.

At Columbus Circle we saw small groups marching around.
 


 
 
 We attended the performance and decided to walk home down 5th Avenue.  Around 50th & 5th we came upon a demonstration of over 1,000 people marching from Columbus Circle to the United Nations.  They were spewing hate for Israel.
 
Interestingly, we had just come from an emotional performance based on, literally, killing and displacing Jews and we, then, come upon this.
 
There was also the solitary, omnipresent anti-Jew sign holder.
 

 
 
But seeing a large crowd of muslims, liberal Jews, socialists, and others marching together in unity against Israel was a bit more disturbing.
