Linda Sarsour

In the past, Lin­da Sar­sour has drawn sub­stan­tial media atten­tion due to her role as co-chair of the Women’s March on Wash­ing­ton to protest the admin­is­tra­tion of Pres­i­dent Trump, a posi­tion she had to step down from in 2019 fol­low­ing accu­sa­tions of anti-Semi­tism, infight­ing and finan­cial mis­man­age­ment. Sar­sour is known as a harsh crit­ic of Israel as well as a pro­po­nent of the Boy­cott, Divest­ment, and Sanc­tions move­ment and has appeared at a 2015 march orga­nized by anti-Semi­te Louis Far­rakhan. She has also accused US politi­cians of being more loy­al to Israel than to the Amer­i­can peo­ple. Addi­tion­al­ly, the GMBDW has report­ed on Sarsour’s fam­i­ly ties to Hamas.
