This vigil and rally mark the one-year anniversary of the forced displacement of the Rohingya Minority, persecuted in Myanmar/Burma and subject to mass rapes and other atrocities. We anticipate there will be an interfaith feeder march from 96th Street Islamic Center starting at 2 pm and proceeding via Jewish congregations nearby. The Facebook page for this event is here. This Vigil is co-sponsored by Burma Task Force, Interfaith Center of NY, and Jewish Alliance of Concern Over Burma.
