Standing Together in Indignation

On behalf of the ICAN family—our advisory board, our current and past fellows, and our partners in Israel, Palestine and Jordan we join in solidarity with the victims and mourners of the Tree of Life Synagogue, the Jewish community of Pittsburgh, and the Jewish community worldwide. We deplore this despicable, outrageous murder of Jewish worshipers. Fueled by a context which has reignited anti-Semitism to an alarming degree, and which has sparked hate crimes against Muslims, against Blacks, and against other minorities, we must rise in indignation rather than cower in fear.

We invite you to join us in solidarity this Thursday at 5:30 p.m. at the Wendy Patrick Room with speakers Rabbi Lisa Grushcow, Reverend Arlen John Bonner, and Imam Hassan Guillet as well as ICAN Fellows as they reflect on their own experiences and commitment to diversity, inclusion, and peace building.
