Foundation Files Formal Complaint with NY State against Rockefeller Brothers Foundation BDS Ties
(The Jewish Voice) The Rieders Foundation filed a formal complaint with the New York state division of Human Rights on Monday May 20, 2019 against the Rockefeller Brother's Foundation (RBF) for its extensive and well-documented donations to groups with anti-Semitic and anti-Israel bias. According to the foundation, recipients of RBF grants include, Ifnotnow, Jewish Voice for Peace, and the U.S. Campaign for Palestinian Rights. Organizations such as Defense for Children International (which received $25,000 from the RBF in 2017) employed board members and workers with direct ties to the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP), "a terrorist organization designated as such by the U.S., EU, Canada, and Israel."
