Mayor Zohran Mamdani tapped the head of a left-leaning Jewish organization as his antisemitism czar Thursday — but she’s already facing the ire of some Orthodox Jewish leaders. Phylisa Wisdom, 39, the former executive director of the lefty organization New York Jewish Agenda will lead the Mayor’s Office to Combat Anti-Semitism. “Phylisa is a respected leader and powerful voice in the fight against antisemitism in New York City, Albany and across the country,” Mamdani said in a statement.
