During my junior year of high school, I got the same question everyone got at that age: “what do you want to be when you grow up?”
In the nearly seven months since then, tensions have boiled over in U.S. cities nationwide and on college campuses. Last week, more than 100 pro-Palestinian demonstrators were arrested after camping out on Columbia University’s upper Manhattan campus, and on Tuesday, that turned into a larger movement as students across the country have set up encampments, occupied buildings and ignored demands to leave.
Many families will be gathering Tuesday night for the second seder of the Jewish holiday, Passover. At some of those tables in Denver, there will be Muslims present. It is part of an outreach brought about by Imam Muhammad Kolila and Rabbi Joseph Black, who met in 2019 and developed a friendship that is serving both of their communities during this tumultuous time.
Both men met through a state initiative to foster interfaith relationships by Colorado Gov. Jared Polis. But what started as an initiative quickly turned into an organic friendship that has never been more important than since Hamas' attack on Israel in early October. The two men have broken bread together, attended each other's religious events. On Oct. 7, the Imam's mosque held a vigil honoring the lives lost, and the next day, he showed up at Rabbi Black’s synagogue with members of the Muslim community to show unity. This Passover, they were invited to join in seders and on Ramadan, the Rabbi and others were invited into Muslim homes and mosques.
