This year, communities across the US will gather to honor the annual Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Day Ceremony. For
the past thirteen years, thousands of Israelis and Palestinians have stood each year to acknowledge the pain of
those living on the “other side” and envision a better future together.
Join us for a special memorial event based upon the values of recognition, hope, solidarity, and non-violence. We
will hear from Palestinians and Israelis who have committed themselves to these values, watch inspirational clips
from the Israeli-Palestinian Memorial Day Ceremony taking place on the same day in Israel. Joined by musicians from
Heartbeat youth band, we will sing, reflect, connect, and renew our community's call to end the conflict in a just
and peaceful way.
Sponsored by the New Israel Fund, American Friends of the Parents Circle-Families Forum, and Americans Friends of Combatants for Peace
Co-sponsored by Americans for Peace Now, Mosaic Theater Company of DC, Am Kolel, the Foundation for Middle East Peace, Temple Micah, and the Alliance for Middle East Peace
