Kesher Talk

The anniversary approaches. Howard's memoir of 9-11, one year later.
That week - a month after I joined Kesher Talk - I wrote about what the Jewish tradition can offer about how to memorialize 9-11.
My favorite Jewish story from 9-11 - in fact, the story that moved me the most of all from that horrendous time, and still makes me cry every time I read it - is about the shomrim from Stern College. What's a shomer? Read and cry.
Last year I collected an enormous number of links of 9-11 statements from bloggers and news sites, including many personal stories from people who were there.

I'm not sure what we will post this year. Since 9-11 falls on Shabbat, we won't post on the day itself.

Jeff Jarvis - who was taking the PATH train into the station when the planes hit - writes about how the scars from that day have turned into political bickering.

Michele is moving on from the Voices Project, which will still be up for people to read, but not to add to.
