Crown Heights City Council candidate Crystal Hudson visited the Library of Agudas Chassidei Chabad on Monday, and met with members of the Crown Heights Jewish community including Rabbi Berel Levine, head librarian.
Hudson was accompanied by Baila Olidort, Editor-in-Chief at Lubavitch News Service, Crown Heights businessman Shaya Gorden, and community activist Yaacov Behrman.
“I am so grateful for the recent tour I had of the largest and oldest private Jewish library, and to learn more about the history and wisdom of the Chabad community. As a Council Member, I will proudly continue to learn from and represent all of the diverse communities in our district, ensuring we all see an equitable recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic,” said Hudson.
Crystal Hudson is running against Michael Hollingsworth in the democratic primary on June 22nd. Hollingsworth is supported by the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), and has expressed his anti-Israel views publicly.
Shaya,
Great job!
Now: Where goes Ms. Hudson stand on the issues? And who is endorsing her? What is her professional and community background and her political record up to this point in time?
Crystal Hudson supports BDS and attempted to get the DSA endorsement. You can see in this tweet that she clearly has a problem with council members taking trips to Israel: https://twitter.com/crystalrhudson/status/1294741553534193668. There are candidates in the race that are not anti-Israel but keep getting ignored in these articles about the 35th District race. A photo op like this during election season doesn’t mean much.
No other candidate can win. If Michael wins he will take NYPD off the streets of crown heights and kill small businesses. The man is dangerous.
