The instance that you're referencing was thousands of people, mostly all men from what I was able to see in Washington Square Park, where incidentally, there's a mosque right there on Washington Square Park at NYU.
I've been to it.
I showed up, you know, to show my solidarity with the Muslim community.
when there were waves of anti-Islam feeling, and there's a giant mosque right behind those people.
And there was also a gathering in Brooklyn that Mayor Mamdani attended, which was also overwhelmingly male with women cordoned off in a tiny section in the rear.
So it raises a lot of questions, right, about public space and access and equality, especially because
I just interviewed an activist from Britain.
They're much further along in the weaponization of public space by imams, essentially.
And we kind of have to wake up that this isn't just your ordinary diversity issue in a free civil society.
So it's not right to ask about constitutional questions in this case, respectfully, because it's not about the separation of church and state.
you can have, you know, you can worship in public in our society.
It's perfectly constitutional.
The issues that it raises for me legally are EOC law and also the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
So the 1964 Civil Rights Act, of course, was the law that did away with Jim Crow
with separate but equal accommodations.
And it basically said, in public accommodations, you can't keep a group of people out.
So the question for me is, if I, as a Brooklynite, you know, half the time, taxpayer in New York, were to walk into the middle of those men in that public park, right?
It's not a private space.
It's taxpayer-funded, that space.
Would I be allowed to use that space?
