According to the Jewish Federation of Greater Nashville, some Sunday services and other events have been canceled as a result of an email threat. The organization warned in a post on X, formerly known as Twitter, that numerous organizations would be canceling Sunday services due to an email threat. “The Jewish Federation of Greater Nashville, along with several other Jewish communal organizations, received an emailed threat this morning.” “We immediately notified MNPD and the Secure Community Network, and we made contact with our local and statewide Jewish organizational leadership to ensure that everyone was aware and prepared to respond appropriately,” the organization said.
The non-profit group did not confirm what was claimed in the email but added that some local temples canceled Sunday school and other activities out of concern. “These threats are part of a larger national trend of harassing and intimidating American Jews.” We appreciate our law enforcement allies’ assistance and professionalism. “We will not be afraid, and we will continue to live proud and joyful Jewish lives in our amazing Nashville community,” according to the organization.
