On Oct. 31, Philly Bike On Your Left, a group that describes itself as an "anti-fascist, anti-Zionist social cycling collective," posted a flyer announcing a boycott of what it described as "Zionist establishments" in the city's Rittenhouse Square neighborhood. The group plans to boycott the Philadelphia restaurants Mac Mart, K’Far Café, Huda, Goldie, Schlesinger’s, and Dizengoff on Nov. 8, 2026, in solidarity with the Palestinian community. The planned boycott occurs on the eve of the anniversary of Kristallnacht, aka the “Night of Broken Glass,” an antisemitic riot against Jews in Germany, Austria, and Sudetenland that was coordinated by the Nazi Party on Nov. 9 and Nov. 10,
