Today, we are in mourning. We have been in mourning every day for the past year, as each day has brought news of incalculable loss and suffering. Israel’s occupation and escalation of violence in Gaza has been ongoing for years, but this past year has seen an unprecedented wave of destruction, cruelty and killing. Today we mark the first yahrtzeit, the one-year anniversary, of this gruesome genocide by asking our community to work for justice.
We can’t let this go on.
