> The Israeli Declaration of Independence was made on May 14, 1948, a day
> remembered by Palestinians as al-Nakba, the catastrophe. While some Jews
> celebrate this day, we see it as a necessary day of reckoning and
> recommitment to action in Jewish communities.
>
> On May 14, 2009, 61 years later, please join Rabbis Remembering the Nakba*,
> Jews Say No!, and Women in Black for a ritual of remembrance, for the
> violence and dispossession that began before 1948 and continues today.
>
> Thursday, May 14th
> 7 pm
> Union Square South (across from Virgin Records)
> Please wear black if you can.
>
> *Events like this one will take place also in Chicago, Philadelphia, Boston
> and the Bay Area initiated by Rabbis Remembering the Nakba, an ad-hoc group
> of rabbis committed to remembering and addressing the Palestinian
> catastrophe of 1948.
