Anti-occupation Jewish Millennial Group 'If Not Now' Picks Up Steam in U.S.
If Not Now, a budding organization of young left-wing American Jews, has been staging sit-down demonstrations outside major U.S. Jewish bodies, but refuses to meet with them.
NEW YORK – A controversial new organization calling itself If Not Now is rapidly gaining attention, members and steam. But critics say that its mostly millennial members aren’t accomplishing anything substantive with its current approach. The group’s profile recently climbed when its founder, Simone Zimmerman, was very publicly fired by United States presidential candidate Bernie Sanders, who had recently hired her as his Jewish outreach coordinator.
