Bowser starts singing after being shouted down by anti-Israel protesters

Mayor Muriel Bowser of Washington, D.C., began singing Monday after she was met with jeers and shouts from anti-Israel protesters at a local holiday celebration.

Bowser was addressing the crowd at the John A. Wilson Building Holiday Celebration when protesters started shouting her down and demanding a ceasefire.

“Thank you, everybody. Thank you,” the mayor told the protesters. “These are our D.C. values. We respect one another. We love one another, and we stand side by side with each other.”

Bowser’s attempt at a kind-hearted sentiment did not appear to be welcomed by the crowd.

“Ceasefire now! Ceasefire now! Ceasefire now!” they chanted back.

“We would like our guests to respect the D.C. residents who are here,” Bowser said before inviting several religious leaders to join her. “We are in a world, certainly, with difficult times.”

Nothing Bowser said could appear to stop the angry chants, so she switched tactics and began singing “This Little Light Of Mine.”

After she began singing, the song began to drown out the chants.
