Elder of Ziyon
Earlier this month, coinciding with May Day and going over Shabbat, Jewish Voice for Peace held a national meeting in Baltimore where they touted over 2,000 people attended.
Looking at the speakers on their website, you see a lot of names of people that are definitely not Jewish, like Linda Sarsour or Rashida Tlaib.
In fact, at least 23 of the 40 speakers were not Jewish, and several like Rashida Tlaib and Linda Sarsour have been accused of antisemitic rhetoric.

Here is how JVP describes their on site prayer room: "There will also be a prayer room open for anyone who needs a quiet space for Muslim or Jewish prayer, or simply to sit quietly for a few minutes, as well as a separate low-sensory decompression space." Also, they provided "a facilitated ritual space to grieve our countless communal losses."
