The MPAC Podcast with Salam Al-Marayati
On September 2, 2026 By MPAC
In this clip from The MPAC Podcast, Jewish Council for Public Affairs (JCPA) CEO Amy Spitalnick joins host Salam Al-Marayati to address the rhetoric at the "Jewish American Summit" in Los Angeles. Spitalnick condemns anti-Muslim tropes and the exploitation of 9/11 fear, affirming that Muslim partners have been vital allies in fighting antisemitism and warning that hate is weaponized to pit communities against one another and weaken pro-democracy coalitions.
