SUMMARY:Standing Together: A Conversation With Israeli and Palestinian Grassroots Leaders
DESCRIPTION:After Minyan on Wednesday\, April 30th\, we’ll be joined by leaders in the Standing Together movement\, whose mission is to bring equality\, political and climate justice to all citizens of Israel\, and peaceful coexistence with Palestinians in the West Bank and Gaza. On the Eve of Yom HaAtzma’ut\, which celebrates 77 years of Israeli independence\, Itamar Avneri and Angela Mattar — a Jewish and Palestinian leader — will talk about the challenges and bright spots they’re seeing\, and how we here in Chicago can push for the Israel we know is possible. \nAngela Mattar is a Palestinian activist\, medical student\, and leader in Standing Together. Born and raised in the Galilee village of I’billin\, she was driven to activism after witnessing deepening discrimination and violence against Palestinians. The aftermath of October 7th became a turning point\, propelling her to join Standing Together and fight for justice through non-violent resistance. On campus\, she leads efforts to build Jewish-Palestinian partnerships and confront systemic discrimination\, while her activism extends beyond university walls — resisting land theft in places like Al-Makhrour\, Beit Jala. Angela’s work is fueled by hope for justice and equality\, both in broader society and within her own Palestinian community\, where she strives to challenge fear and inspire young people\, especially young girls\, to believe in their power to create change. \nItamar Avneri was born and raised in Kfar Hachoresh\, Israel\, a small kibbutz near Nazareth. For the past 15 years\, he has been living in Tel Aviv. Itamar has a bachelor’s degree in philosophy and sociology from Tel Aviv University\,and a master’s degree in cultural studies from the Hebrew University. He is one of the original founders of the Standing Together movement and a current member of the movement’s national leadership. Itamar is also currently serving as a council member for the Tel Aviv-Jaffa Municipality.” \nRegister

SUMMARY:The 20th Israeli-Palestinian Joint Memorial Day Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:From the American Friends of Combatants for Peace: \nThe Joint Memorial Day Ceremony\, organized by Combatants for Peace and The Parents Circle Families Forum\, is one of the largest Israeli-Palestinian jointly organized peace events in history. The Joint Memorial Ceremony provides a unique opportunity for Israelis and Palestinians to grieve together and stand strong in demanding an end to the occupation and ongoing violence. The ceremony occurs yearly on the eve of Yom HaZikaron (Israeli Memorial Day). In Israeli mainstream culture\, the ceremonies that are most often held to honor this day serve to reinforce cultural narratives of pain\, victimhood\, and hopelessness. The Joint Memorial transforms this narrative by bringing Palestinians to the Memorial alongside Israelis to mourn side by side and model another way forward. \nThis internationally broadcast program begins at 12:30 pm CT and listed end time is an estimate. \nRegister

SUMMARY:Joint Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Day Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:As is written on the American Friends for Combatants for Peace website in their description of why hundreds of thousands of Israelis and Palestinians join together for this memorial day commemoration: \n“The Joint Memorial Ceremony\, organized by Combatants for Peace (CfP) and The Parents Circle Families Forum and co-sponored by Mishkan\, is the largest Israeli-Palestinian jointly organized peace event. The Joint Memorial Ceremony provides a unique opportunity for Israelis and Palestinians to grieve together and stand strong in demanding an end to the ongoing violence. The Ceremony takes place every year on the eve of Yom Hazikaron (Israeli Memorial Day). In Israeli mainstream culture\, the ceremonies that are most often held to honor this day serve to reinforce cultural narratives of pain\, victimhood\, and hopelessness. Our Joint Memorial transforms this narrative by bringing Palestinians to the Memorial alongside Israelis. Joining together to mourn each other’s pain\, we aim to challenge the status quo and set the foundation for a new reality based on mutual respect\, dignity\, and equality for all. In mourning together\, we seek not to equate narratives\, but rather transform despair into hope and build bridges of compassion. We remind ourselves and society that occupation\, oppression\, and violence are not inevitable.” \nRegister

SUMMARY:MLK Day Field Trip to Martin Luther King Jr Exhibit Center
DESCRIPTION:Join Pastah J and our friends at the Lawndale Christian Community Church for a Martin Luther King Jr. Celebration. Over 55 years ago Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. moved into North Lawndale and voiced these words: “we have some challenging days ahead\, some great and noble opportunities to make this a beautiful city that sits on the banks of Lake Michigan.” For most people still living in North Lawndale they are still waiting for opportunities mentioned in this quote to be realized in their North Lawndale community and their lives. On this day we will celebrate MLK’s work of the past\, talk about the working taking place in North Lawndale\, and the opportunities before us in the areas of housing and economic development. Following the event\, Mishkanites and leaders from Lawndale Community Church will gather for discussion from 2 – 3 pm. If you are interested in carpooling\, either as a driver or passenger\, please submit this form.\n\nRegistration has closed.

SUMMARY:Reflection and Renewal: Exploring the Jewish and Black histories of Lawndale on Tisha b’Av
DESCRIPTION:On this Tisha B’Av\, the most solemn day on the Jewish calendar\, we are heading to church at Lawndale Community Church\, led by Rabbi Lizzi’s friend Pastah J (co-pastor Jonathan Brooks). Together Pastah J and R’ Lizzi will co-lead a service on the themes of Tisha B’av\, helping us reflect on what it meant that so many Jews called this neighborhood home for decades – and then fled for the suburbs in the 1950s. We’ll tour the neighborhood together and discuss both the Jewish history of Lawndale and its predominantly African American present\, and we’ll talk about what role we might play in healing the ongoing legacy of white flight. \nRegister

SUMMARY:The Israeli-Palestinian Joint Memorial Ceremony
DESCRIPTION:Join the largest Israeli-Palestinian peace event in history. We will gather to call for peace\, freedom\, and human rights for all. The Joint Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Day Ceremony is hosted by Combatants for Peace and The Parents Circle–Families Forum. Yom Hazikaron\, Israel’s Memorial Day\, is a solemn day on which Israelis remember those they have lost in the years of war and conflict. Traditionally\, the Palestinian narrative is erased\, leading both sides into deeper despair. By acknowledging the pain of those living on the other side\, the Ceremony offers us all the choice to walk a new path: the path of respect\, equality\, freedom – and ultimately peace. In this time of immense anxiety and separation\, the upcoming Joint Memorial Day Ceremony offers hope for a better future.\n\nRegister
