It has been a year since Wall Street Journal reporter,
Daniel Pearl, was brutally murdered for doing his job,
and for being an American and a Jew.
The motives for his execution somehow went silent
amidst the competing news coverage of the day, and
yet his death was tragically symbolic of the new realities
of the world in which we live.
Join us as Congregation B’nai Jeshurun hosts
and conducts a one-year anniversary Yahrzeit service
commemorating Daniel Pearl's murder in an interfaith
evening of memory, music and mourning.
The program will begin with an interfaith service
lead by Rabbis J. Rolando Matalon, Marcelo R. Bronstein
and Felicia L. Sol. Reverend K Karpen, Imam Talib 'Abdur-Rashid
and Imam Feisal Abdul Rauf
Among others joining us will be:

Judea Pearl, Daniel
