Every year we celebrate the birthday of
\nMartin Luther King in a joint concert between our synagogue and Reverend Roger
\nHambrick and his New York-based  Green Pastures Baptist Church Choir.  DC and New York, white and black, Jewish and Christian… we gather to honor the holiday for
\nthis man who meant so much to all of us.  This year, the choir was joined
\nby the legendary Neshama
\nCarlebach<\/a>, daughter of the revered Sholmo Carlebach<\/a> and a talent in her own
\nright.<\/o:p><\/span><\/p>\n

It’s a strange thing really – Orthodox Jews
\nand Bronx Baptists dancing in the aisles singing Kivo Moed — Now is the
\nTime… quite remarkable.  It’s always moving – and no
\nless so tonight — just not much original to say about it.  Just take a
\nlook and enjoy it for yourself.<\/span><\/p>\n
