Council cancels workshop to be run by pro-Palestine activist
North Sydney Council has cancelled an anti-racism workshop to be run by Hue, a company co-founded by pro-Palestine activist Elsa Tuet-Rosenberg.
The Daily Telegraph reported that Elsa Tuet-Rosenberg was one of many revealed in February to be among the most prolific sharers of details of more than 600 Jewish creatives from a leaked private WhatsApp group.
David Ossip, president of The New South Wales Jewish Board of Deputies, said: “We are pleased that North Sydney Council has made the right call and cancelled Hue’s workshop.
Today’s decision comes after JBD along with members of broader the community raised serious concerns about the appropriateness of this event.
This wasn’t just about differing viewpoints – Hue’s founders have previously engaged in targeted harassment of Jewish Australians, including doxxing hundreds of community members.
Thank you to Mayor Zöe Baker and councillors for demonstrating strong and principled leadership.
This commitment to creating truly inclusive spaces for community members matters.”
