Friend --
On Friday's Symposium we will celebrate the work of German poet Friedrich Schiller, after whom the Schiller Institute is named. His work has never been more important than today, when so many of us are experiencing such anguish over the barbaric slaughter of thousands of children in Gaza. Out over over 10,000 Palestinian people who've died in Bibi Netanyahu's massive bombing campaign since October 7, at least 4,000 children are among them.? There is such scarcity of water and electricity that hospitals are unable to function, and unless the blockade is lifted, tens of thousands may soon die of dehydration and disease.
In the United States, as in Israel, Jewish voices are being raised against the war crimes, even as many are still grieving over lives lost on October 7.? There is also the recognition that Netanyahu's murderous actions, backed by the United States, and made in London, are not making Israel secure, but rather the contrary, inciting hatred against Israel, and American troops, putting everyone in greater danger.? This insanity has to stop.
The question is, how do we harness the profound emotions that so many of us are feeling as the death toll mounts, and transform them into the calm resolve to act from the highest level, not to bring about further division, but to unite humanity on a higher level?? This is exactly what Schiller worked on in all of his historical and artistic endeavors.? In Friday's symposium, on Schiller's 264th birthday, we hope to present an enticing sample of some of his contributions which will inspire you to learn more.
The online Symposium will start at 8:00 pm.? The in-person Manhattan celebration will begin at 7:00 pm, and include refreshments and live performances.
