ALT Headline: "Today in NYC history" followed by an image described as "View of New Amsterdam in 1664 courtesy of Geheugen van Nederland" and a text caption that reads, "On this day in 1654, Jacob Barsimson left the Netherlands on a ship to New Amsterdam, where he became the first known Jew to settle in what would become New York. Barsimson and the Sephardic Jewish settlers who would soon join him pushed back against New Amsterdam's antisemitic governor, Peter Stuyvesant, to earn rights in the Dutch colony."
