David Glosser, left, and Slava Burdman, both of Sarasota, join in a March against Hate-Bring the Hostages Home rally on Sunday. The federation was joined by Sarasota Ministerial Association, Sarasota-Manatee Rabbinical Association and Aviva in hosting the event. The walk highlighted a call for the freedom of the more than 220 hostages held in Gaza and spoke out against rising antisemitism.

Kilmar Abrego Garcia, 29, was detained by federal immigration agents in Beltsville, Md., on March 12, 2025, while his son, pictured here, was in the backseat.
