Thousands of people packed Sunday’s Boulder Jewish Festival at the Pearl Street Mall in Colorado — not far from the site of last week’s antisemitic firebomb attack. Among the event’s speakers were members of Run for Their Lives, the peaceful group targeted by the firebomber. The festival, hosted by the Boulder JCC, featured dozens of community Jewish organizations, food vendors, an art market and live music and performances — under a noticeably stepped-up security presence.
