Antidote to Hate: Keep Showing Up PHIL RAIMI

J

ew hatred in America strikes again. This time at a Poway, Calif., synagogue. Six months after the Tree of Life synagogue massacre in Pittsburgh, Jewish communal institutions have been further “hardened” with bullet-proof glass, steel-reinforced self-locking doors and sophisticated surveillance equipment. Evacuation procedures have been established, escape routes identified. Guns are no longer exclusively in the hands of the bad guys. Now, they can be found under the suits of hired protectors and occasionally strapped beneath a fellow congregant’s prayer shawl. A far cry from days of yore, when expectations of security — if they existed at all — were relegated to unarmed, 300-pound men with deputy fire marshal-looking badges, squeezed into red mini-compacts with twirling amber beacons. After Poway, we still feel vulnerable. In some ways, more so than after Pittsburgh. With anti-Semitism on the rise, we started taking our security more seriously. But the shock of 11 deaths at Tree of Life, the relatively easy access the killer had to the congregants and the absence of competent, armed protection, stoked our angst and accelerated our precautions. The killer in Poway had a tougher time, but still succeeded. One dead. Three wounded, including the rabbi and an 8-year-old girl. Whether the Chabad-affiliated synagogue was “hardened” or not, he gained entry and fired several rounds from his weapon before leaving — perhaps fleeing when confronted by a good guy. Without some extra evacuation training, and a bit of luck, the casualty count could have been more catastrophic. Welcome to the new reality. Hatred stoked by heated rhetoric that is turning angry thoughts into evil actions against our community. Poway reveals something we’ve known for some time … despite precautions, there is risk associated with living our lives.

Readers reacted to the news of the synagogue shooting in Poway, Calif., on the JN’s Facebook page. Ginger Hopkins: Condolences, thoughts and prayers for the family and synagogue. Karen Gilmour: Just reprehensible!! Drew Lewis Pikstein: Please, Lord, make this hatred stop! Susan Averbuch: “In every generation, one has risen against us ...”

Shooting victim 8-year-old Noya Dahan is wrapped in the Israeli flag.

In the coming weeks, we’ll walk for Israel, reflect on Holocaust Remembrance Day, pause on Israel’s Memorial Day and then celebrate its independence. We’ll present lifetime achievement awards, honor day school benefactors and alumni, celebrate 8 over age 80, recognize community activists, fete supporters of high school youth, convene for a blockbuster film festival and listen to an array of compelling speakers. We’ll attend bar and bat mitzvahs, graduations, tot Shabbats, consecrations and weddings. Working with law enforcement and elected officials, our Jewish communal leadership and agencies will continue to improve the safety and security of our gathering places. Meanwhile, what are we to do? Quite simply, keep living our lives openly as Jews — albeit with added vigilance. And whether it’s a community-wide celebration or an intimate baby naming at a synagogue, defy the haters and keep showing up. ■ See stories about the weekend shooting beginning on page 12.

Al Wright: They did catch the guy. It’s really weird how it happened. I believe there’s more to the story that we will know. The only thing to me that really matters is the hatred against the people that were injured and hurt. I’m tired of hatred. I’m tired of the anti-Semitism. It needs to stop. Jim Van Eaton: The shooter was confronted by an off-duty border patrol agent in the synagogue who returned fire at him and he left. Good guy with a gun stops a bad guy with a gun. Phil Raimi: This is our synagogue — words cannot describe the sorrow we feel about this heinous act. Please pray for the family of Dr. Howard Kaye and his daughter for their tragic loss of his wife and her mother, Lori Kaye z’l. Benji Rosenzweig: I used to have nightmares from the stories my grandparents told me about what life was like in Europe in the ’30s and ’40s. We are light years away from that, but the echoes are the same. To compare the two is a stretch, but to think that it didn’t start this way is naive.

Remember Yom HaShoah and the 6 Million Kedoshim

P

esach is a joyous Yom Tov for the Jewish people, especially when we sit at the seder table with our family and friends. The children ask the Mah Nishtanah (the four questions) “Why is this night of Pesach different from all other nights?” The father answers because we were slaves in Egypt. The king of Egypt, Pharaoh, enslaved the Jewish people thousands Michael Weiss of years ago. Our generation also had a Pharoah. His name was Hitler. He also enslaved the Jewish people. The Jews lived in Europe 800-900 years and obeyed the laws of the land in whatever country they lived in. On the eighth day of Pesach in 1944, 74 years ago, I was davening with my father when a man came in to tell us that flyers were pasted all over town, two of them on our shul door. It read, “Tomorrow on Sunday, on the day after Pesach, each Jew must leave home and go to the school building.” From there, they took us Jews to

the ghettos such as Budapest, Kiev or Munkacs. Then the Nazi governments of Europe and the volunteers who joined them — Hitler didn’t do it by himself — took us to Auschwitz, Majdanek, Buna and many other camps where we found factories equipped with gas chambers murdering Jewish people … where our parents, our families, our children …. our people … were murdered and burned to ashes in the crematorium. During our history, the Jewish people have had many tragedies, but the Holocaust has no equal. It is and always will be the worst human rights violation in the history of the world. The whole world stood by in silence while 6 million Jewish people were murdered. The world heard their screams from the gas chambers, but they pretended they could not hear. The world smelled their flesh burning in the crematoriums but turned away because they were Jews. On Yom HaShoah (May 2), we remember our family members who died during those awful years. I am sure it is a mitzvah to remember the neshamas (souls) of the 1.5 million children who died; their memories will

An Alternate Dayenu Regarding the “Dayenu 2019” in the April 18 Detroit Jewish News, here is an alternative version: forever live in our hearts. On a morning in May 1945, the gates of Buchenwald opened and in came tanks, soldiers and guns. We thought they were going to level the camp and kill us all, but we found out this was the American army who came to liberate us and give us back our lives. We were like dead people walking, skin and bones. If they would have come a few months later, not one survivor would have been left. Thousands of years ago, God sent Moses and his brother Aaron to Egypt to take His chosen people out of slavery from King Pharaoh and, in May of 1945, God sent the American Army, led by General Patton and Rabbi Shekhter, the chaplain of the unit, to take His chosen people out of the gas chambers. Seventy-five years later I say that unit was led by God and Moses … and the soldiers were God’s angels. ■ Michael Weiss, a Holocaust survivor, is a speaker at the Holocaust Memorial Center in Farmington and author of the book Chimneys and Chambers.

A Dayenu for this Passover If President Trump had only moved the U.S. embassy to Jerusalem — Dayenu. If President Trump had only recognized Israeli sovereignty over the Golan — Dayenu. If President Trump had only appointed Nikki Haley as Ambassador to the U.N. — Dayenu. If President Trump had only closed the PLO office in Washington, D.C. — Dayenu. If President Trump had only stopped giving U.S. tax dollars to the PLO — Dayenu. If President Trump had only been the first sitting U.S. President to pray at the Western Wall —Dayenu. If President Trump had only cancelled the disastrous Obama Iran nuclear deal — Dayenu. If President Trump had only placed crushing sanctions on Iran — Dayenu. If President Trump had only insisted that the ICC not target Israeli soldiers and diplomats — Dayenu. If President Trump has only banned the BDS founder from entering the U.S. — Dayenu. continued on page 10

Muslim and Jews in America: Parallel Trajectories, Shared Future

T

he beginnings of Jews and Muslims in North America has a similar though not identical timetable and trajectory. Jews came to America largely to escape political persecution and economic hardship in search of religious freedom and a better life. The first Jews who arrived in North America were refugees from Recife, Brazil, where they had lived briefly under a tolerant Dutch rule until an earlier ban on Jewish settlement and immigration was reinstated by the returning Portuguese. Thereafter, the Howard number of Jewish refugees grew steadiLupovitch ly, reaching 3,000 by 1820, 300,000 by 1880 and nearly 3 million by the eve of World War I. The first Muslims arrived not long before the first Jews, not as refugees but as African slaves. Historians estimate the number of North American Muslim slaves between 70,000 and 150,000, between one-fifth and one-quarter of the slave population when slavery ended in the 1860s. In the 20th century, Muslim immigrants, like Jews, were impelled by violence, political persecution and economic hardship to leave

towns where they had lived for generations and come to America. Once in America, Jews and Muslims embarked on a search for acceptance. Jews had an advantage, owing to their relative whiteness. While Muslims were lumped in with other people of color, Jews were seen by the white Protestant elite as less non-white than African Americans, Latinos, Asian Americans, Native Americans and Arab-Americans — provided Jews did not display their Jewishness too ostentatiously. Mass Jewish immigration to America preceded mass Muslim immigration by nearly a century. Jewish immigration from the Russian and Austro-Hungarian empires began at the end of the 19th century; comparable Muslim immigration from the Middle East and North Africa would take place nearly a century later. Allowing for this time lag, parallels appear. These massive influxes of immigrants transformed the Jewish and Muslim communities. American Jewry on the eve of this massive immigration was highly acculturated and Americanized. The several million Jewish immigrants from Eastern Europe re-invigorated and accentuated the distinctness of Judaism and Jewish

culture in America. Similarly, the Muslim community in America for much of the 20th century consisted largely of African-American Muslims who, despite their religious affiliation, were seen as American and not a foreign presence. Only toward the end of the 20th century did the number of Middle Eastern Muslims eclipse the number of Muslim AfricanAmericans. Given these parallels, it is not surprising that the large influx of Jewish and Muslim immigrants elicited a similar backlash. Ostjuden, the often-derogatory term for Eastern European Jews, were denigrated as disease-carrying criminals (as Latinos are today). Amidst the “American First” isolationist, anti-immigrant xenophobia that followed World War I, Jewish immigrants were demonized by fearmongers. The Johnson-Reed Act of 1924 effectively banned subsequent Jewish immigration — with catastrophic implications for Jews who would soon be trapped under Nazi persecution. This situation is not unlike the recent surge of Islamophobia that has appeared amidst another surge of “American First” isolationist, anti-immigrant xenocontinued on page 10

Don’t Dilute Study Of Anti-Semitism

I

attended an April 14th symposium by Wayne State University’s Cohn-Haddow Center for Judaic Studies and the Center for Peace and Conflict Studies at Temple Beth El in Bloomfield Township. titled “Beyond Fear and Hate: Recent Ramifications of Anti-Semitism.” Its organizers publicized it would offer a “look at the nuanced history, contemporary trends and future outcomes related to anti-Semitism and other forms of group-based hate.” I was there for the first two hours of the program. The idea of studying anti-Semitism Harry Onickel is good. We can’t fight it if we don’t understand it. One way to not battle anti-Semitism is to treat it as just another hatred. Anti-Semitism is the oldest hatred. It is a virus that mutates from generation to generation. It isn’t just a stereotype or a resentment of Jews. Other groups are stereotyped, resented and hated, but for Jews there are no limits. Jews have been attacked for being both white and non-white, as capitalists and communists, of being too successful and too wretched, for being stateless and for having a state, for being too passive and for fighting too effectively. We’re attacked for being whatever the anti-Semite hates. Anti-Semites project their own pathologies on the Jews. Anti-Semitism is the one form of bigotry that is regularly excused or whitewashed. Some writers have objected to the “weaponization” of anti-Semitism,

which as far as I can tell means “shut up” if it’s coming from your side of the political aisle. One of the program’s panelists suggested that the audience suspend judgment on Congresswoman Ilhan Omar and her anti-Semitic tweets until after we read her Washington Post op-ed. But it’s clear that Omar was untruthful in writing, “When I criticize certain Israel government actions …” She was not criticizing Israel government actions when she accused AIPAC and Israel of buying American support and accused Jews of dual loyalty. Only about half of the program was devoted to discussing anti-Semitism. The rest was on Islamophobia, racism and the current plight of illegal immigrants trying to enter the United States. Lumping all these issues together allowed the panel to trivialize anti-Semitism as just another generic hatred. Despite panelists’ claims to the contrary, Islamophobia and the current treatment of migrants at our border are not equivalent to 3,000 years of persecution, expulsions, forced conversions, ghettoization, blood libels, pogroms, massacres and genocide. One audience member pointed out during a short, mid-program Q&A, no good is done by equating Holocaust refugees with today’s Central American refugees in order to score easy anti-Trump points. Jews refused entry into the United States were fleeing genocide and sent back to die in Nazi concentration camps. This kind of comparison belittles the Holocaust and insults the memories of the 6 million. European anti-migrant sentiment was also brought

up. Yes, there is prejudice and anger among Europeans against migrants. There is also a tremendous increase in anti-Semitism being fueled by some of these migrants, and it is combining with native European antiSemitism. Jews are once again escaping Europe, but none of the presenters mentioned that. One panelist gave excellent information on 20th-century anti-Semitism describing Henry Ford’s Dearborn Independent, the Protocols of the Elders of Zion, Father Coughlin and the blaming of Jewish immigrants for crime, a cholera outbreak and communism. Rather than expand on this important thread, he minimized it by insisting that there is a parallel between anti-Semitism and Islamophobia. He went on to describe differences between left and right anti-Semitism, but without mentioning campus antiSemitism or the clear link between anti-Zionism and anti-Semitism. If the aim was to dissect anti-Semitism, this symposium was a missed opportunity. As an attempt to examine a wide range of hatred, it came off as a mostly superficial recitation of some bigotries based on the political leanings of the panelists. With worldwide anti-Semitism rising, it is more important than ever to have a forum to examine antiSemitism in all its forms and include suggestions for battling it. Who’s going to rise to that occasion? ■ Harry Onickel is a Ferndale freelance writer and literacy consultant. He is currently working on a history of anti-Semitism for high school students.

phobia. The fear of Jewish communism in the 1920s and the recent fear of Muslim terrorism parallel one another — each wildly extrapolates from the prominent role that a few members of an immigrants’ community of origin played in violent upheaval to condemn an entire community of immigrants as a threat to stability and the American way. SIMILAR CHALLENGES Despite the backlash, Jews and Muslims searched for social acceptance and a sense of rootedness in American society. This search led them, inter alia, to imagine the arrival of their ancestors in the New World even earlier than the historical record indicated. For American Jews, this meant embracing the (historically unfounded) notion that Christopher Columbus, or at least one of his sailors, was Jewish — or, at least, letters

universities in soaring numbers while building an array of lasting Jewish institutions and organizations, including United Synagogue and Jewish summer camps that instilled a variety of religious and Jewish cultural values and a strong sense of Jewish identity and commitment. Muslim-Americans, still somewhere between the first and second generation of immigration, are much closer to the beginning of this process. The un-acculturated appearance of many MuslimAmericans at the beginning of the 21st century recalls that of early 20th-century Jewish immigrants — a large enclave of non-Christians speaking a different language (written in a different alphabet), sporting different apparel, eating unfamiliar food. Muslims and Jews have also evinced a similar pride in the way that their cultures impacted American culture,

especially evident in American music. Jews celebrate the fact that one of the motifs in God Bless America was imported from the Shabbat morning liturgy and that a well-known tune in Porgy and Bess was a variation of the Barechu. Muslims hear the call of the mosque in the music of John Coltrane. Both reflect a common element of American culture and society: a nation of immigrants is more than a useful soundbite, but an acknowledgement of a richly textured culture and society built on a series of waves of immigration from all over the world. The Jewish contribution to American culture produced, among other things, Broadway. The Muslim contribution will likely contribute something just as remarkable. ■ Professor Howard Lupovitch is associate professor of history and director of the Cohn-Haddow Center for Judaic Studies at Wayne State University.

For all these blessings, we thank President Trump — the most pro-Israel president in American history. As the Israeli ambassador to the U.S. Ron Dermer said: “It is true that in every generation they rise up against U.S. ... But it is a rare thing — a very rare thing — a president like President Trump and an administration like the Trump administration — it doesn’t happen every generation. It may happen once in many, many generations.”

crypto-Jewish — thus including Jews among the first Europeans to set foot in the New World. It is not at all surprising that American-Muslims imagined something analogous: namely, the first Eurasian explorers of the New World were Muslim sailors. These were not expressions of Muslim supremacy or Jewish chauvinism; rather, an exercise in embracing and celebrating a new home. The possibility of social acceptance increased the threat of assimilation. Indeed, Muslims and Jews have faced a similar challenge of balancing between the pressures of the melting pot and the need to preserve their own identities. Here, again, a time lag of several generations. First- and, to a lesser extent, second-generation Jews found this balance by sending their children to public schools, who then graduated from high school and from American colleges and

When We Read The Names SUSAN ROSS SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS

When we read the names … Six million are pulled from the grasp of the ovens. Departed souls … eternal blessings … transformed to assume new lives. For with each name … sisters, brothers, cousins, nieces and nephews … Rabbis, bakers, scholars, doctors, tailors, housewives, children … Blessed memories … spring to life. You can almost see them … dancing in the moonlight to the fiddler’s strains … Dancing in the moonlight … when we read the names. Close your eyes and welcome them. Acknowledge them before you … One mother’s softness. A father’s strong arms. A baby’s soft bottom. The fragrance of every Bubbie’s kitchen and every Zaydie’s weathered

chair … The fringes of tallit and the cantor’s soaring prayer. When we read the names … They are present once again. Reunited, they gather as if beckoned from afar. Can you feel them? Hear them? The rhythmic chanting of pious, bearded men. Women and children laughing … Released from the darkness of history’s cruelty to feel cool breezes against their skin. We hold hands with the sun … illuminating a world long gone. And those lost are found … when we read the names. Heads bowed … we weep. Davening, we whisper beneath our breath … “We shall never forget you. “We shall remember you and carry you with us throughout time.” And that is why … We read the names. ■

CHABAD OF POWAY WEBSITE/CHABADPOWAY.COM

Synagogue shooting near San Diego kills 1 and injures 3.

round 11:30 a.m. April 27, six months after the horrific shooting at Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh that killed 11 people, congregants at Chabad of Poway near San Diego were celebrating the last day of Passover. Then, John Earnest, 19, armed with an AR-type assault weapon, walked in and began to shoot, according to Rabbi Yisroel Rabbi Goldstein, who was shot Goldstein in the hand and lost an index finger in the attack. According to Goldstein’s account, he said he heard a loud bang while he was preparing for a Yizkor service. He saw longtime member Lori Gilbert-Kaye on the lobby floor and then he saw the shooter. “Here is a young man standing with a rifle, pointing right at me. And I look at him. He had sunglasses on, I couldn’t see his eyes; I couldn’t see his soul,” Goldstein said. As more shots rang out, the rabbi lifted his hands in front of his face; the bullets striking his fingers. He said he rushed into the banquet hall, toward the children who were playing there, including his 4-year-old granddaughter. Bleeding, he screamed, “Get out, get out!” Goldstein and congregant Almog Peretz tried to usher children to safety. Peretz was wounded in the leg by bullet shrapnel as was 8-year-old Noya Dahan, who was injured in her leg and on her face. Both are recovering at home. Lori Gilbert-Kaye, 60, died in the attack. She was attending the service to say Kaddish for her mother. Then the shots stopped. Goldstein thinks the shooter’s gun may have jammed. Police say that congregant and U.S. Army and Navy veteran Oscar Stewart, 51, ran to the synagogue lobby and tried to tackle Earnest, who fled the scene. Off-duty Border Patrol agent Jonathan Morales fired after the gunman as he fled the building, hitting Earnest’s car. Goldstein told CNN he had asked continued on page 14


Investing in

Israel By Reuben Rashty

S

ince 1951, Israel Bonds has been providing supporters of Israel with a way to participate in the economic support of the State of Israel. Proceeds from Israel bond sales have developed every aspect of Israel’s economy. These bonds are essential for Israel – in times of crisis, when funding needs are immediate, these bonds can be used to efficiently and costeffectively secure capital from the worldwide Jewish community. Our clients have often mentioned Israel bonds as a way to invest in Israel – we took these comments to heart at Fifth Third Private Bank and recently announced we have a relationship with the Development Corporation for Israel – the broker dealer which underwrites bonds issued by the State of Israel in the U.S. – to offer an option for investors to finance the purchase of an Israel bond with a low outof-pocket cost. High net worth individuals can secure a loan from the bank to purchase a $500,000 to $1 million two year Israel bond1 with the bond serving as collateral. Upon maturity of the two-year bond, the loan is repaid and Israel has benefitted from the $1 million investment during that period. Why Israel bonds? From an investment perspective, Israel bonds may offer clients the opportunity to preserve capital, and diversify their portfolio. These bonds can be added to IRAs, trust funds, pension funds and endowment funds. But – more importantly – this allows the Jewish community in the U.S. to directly invest in Israel. These bonds provide options when planning for financial goals, including portfolio diversifications, retirement planning – and make great gifts for weddings, bar/ bat mitzvahs or births. Many Foundations hold Israel bonds as part of their investment portfolio and also gift the bonds as part of their charitable giving to organizations such as colleges and universities, federations and large national charities.

— ADVERTORIAL —

Warren Buffet also has a strong affinity for Israel bonds. Buffet is such a strong believer, he said if Israel Bonds offered a perpetual bond, he would buy it. Separately, more than 90 states and municipal public employee pension funds and treasury funds have invested more than $3 billion in Israel Bonds. If you are interested in learning more about Israel bonds or have investment questions2, I would encourage you to reach out to Adam Grossman, assistant executive director at Development Corporation for Israel, adam. grossman@israelbonds.com. If you have any questions about Fifth Third Private Bank, please contact me directly, reuben.rashty@53. com. Q Reuben Rashty is a member of Keter Torah and lives in West Bloomfield. He is the managing director for Fifth Third Private Bank of Michigan. 1 An Israel bond: (1) Is not FDIC insured, (2) Not Bank guaranteed, (3) May lose value, (4) Is not a deposit, and (5) Not insured by any U.S. federal government agency. 2 Approval of the loan and the terms of the loan are within the discretion of Fifth Third Bank and ne ither the State of Israel nor DCI can make the decision whether Fifth Third Bank will grant you a loan and on what terms a loan will be made.

Rabbis React to the Shooting ALLISON JACOBS DIGITAL EDITOR

The shooting at Chabad of Poway near San Diego weighs heavily among communities everywhere, including Metro Detroit. Several shared their experiences, opinions and personal ties to the Poway community: RABBI HERSCHEL FINMAN Herschel Finman, rabbi/founder of Jewish Ferndale, was at shul around 6 p.m. for Moshiach’s Meal, a custom that ends Passover. While celebrating, a congregant turned to Herschel him, revealing his Finman knowledge about a shooting at a Chabad synagogue in California. “Right at that point, my heart sunk, and the joy of the holiday was sucked right out of me — and, of course, my major concern was what was going on in that Chabad house and what we can do here to possibly help,” Finman says. Finally, around 10 p.m., Finman learned the full story, including that his colleague, Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein, was one of the victims. Finman and Goldstein were acquaintances at the Rabbinical College of Seattle. It was a small program, with 14 students living together under one roof. “We basically saw each other 24/7 for two straight years,” Finman says. Goldstein is originally from Brooklyn, N.Y., and has been the rabbi of the Chabad of Poway for more than 30 years. “He is very lively and very dedicated — a person who really wanted to get out and make his mark on the world,” Finman says. “His whole life he wanted to be where he is now.” While he has been praying for Goldstein, who was injured, and the Poway community, Finman has been addressing safety concerns from worried family members and friends in the community. “We’re beefing up our security and being very vigilant in dealing

with this type of a thing,” Finman says. “At the same time, we are providing a place — if there is something that happens in Ferndale, Jewish Ferndale is somewhere people can go.” RABBI MITCH PARKER Saturday morning, Rabbi Mitch Parker of B’nai Israel Synagogue of West Bloomfield addressed his congregation on the last day of Pesach. He was recounting some of the difficult Mitch Parker moments in Jewish history during the month of April. “As I am talking about blood libels that took place around Pesach and things happening in the past, three hours later Jews are getting killed again,” Parker says. As he arrived at shul Sunday for morning minyan, he spotted two West Bloomfield police cars sitting outside. Aside from heightened security, the service at B’nai Israel had a more somber tone. “I usually talk about what happened in Jewish history in a given day. Today, we just sat in silence remembering what had happened.” While he was grateful for the police presence, Parker indicates B’nai Israel has increased security overall since the Tree of Life massacre in Pittsburgh. “We have to make sure that we have adequate security. On the other part, we have to work hard to create a society where people accept differences — where people can appreciate others as opposed to hate.” RABBI NOAM GROSS Rabbi Noam Gross, an educator at Partners Detroit Young Jewish Professionals, lived in Israel for eight years, where violent acts could take place at any point in time. “The idea of attacks on Jews is unfortunately part Noam Gross of the collective continued on page 16

Morales in the past about coming to the synagogue armed because he’s trained, and he wanted trained security. “Unfortunately, we couldn’t afford to have an armed security officer at every service, so whenever we had extra help, we were grateful for it,” Goldstein said. According to the report, Morales had recently discovered his Jewish heritage and drove more than 100 miles each way to the synagogue from his home in El Centro, Calif., a Mexican border city, the rabbi said. After fleeing the scene in his vehicle, Earnest called 911 and turned himself into authorities. He was pulled over and taken into custody without incident. Moments after the attack, Goldstein wrapped his bleeding fingers in a prayer shawl, stood on a chair and spoke to his congregation, he told CNN the day after the attack. He recalled saying, “We are a Jewish nation that will stand tall. We will not let anyone or anything take us down. Terrorism like this will not take us down.” Authorities said they discovered an online letter written by Earnest filled with statements about killing Jews. The letter referenced the recent shootings at the Tree of Life Synagogue and mosques in Christchurch, New Zealand, and took credit for a recent arson at a nearby mosque. Goldstein told news outlets that members of the congregation had recently attended a city seminar about what to do in an active shooter situation. He said the training helped “tremendously. They evacuated so well, we had so many exit doors that it was so effective. People ducked down and they crawled out to safe areas.” After he was released from the hospital, Goldstein told reporters, “A little bit of light pushes away a lot of darkness. We need a lot of light now. “And this coming Saturday, I personally feel, I want to appeal to all the Jewish people to make an effort to attend synagogue. We need to fill up those rooms, not run away from synagogue but, on the contrary, let’s fill up the synagogues.” ■

Noya Dahan, 8, is wrapped in the Israeli flag at a vigil in Poway.

Heroic Israelis Several Israelis were in the Chabad of Poway during the terrorist attack on April 27. Almog Peretz, 34, is from Sderot — a town near the border with Gaza that’s been subjected to rocket attacks where residents have only 15 seconds after a rocket alarm sounds to get to a bomb shelter. Peretz had only moved to California from Sderot a few months before the attack, according to reports in Haaretz. He reportedly saved the lives of several children during the shooting attack and was hit by shrapnel in his leg as he ushered them to safety. He told an Israeli radio station he took the children to a building in the back and hid them there. “It doesn’t matter where we go, we have to look out for ourselves. In Sderot, where I used to live, didn’t they also fire rockets at us? I didn’t believe this would happen in a place like this,” Peretz told Israeli radio. Israel Dahan, the father of 8-year-old Noya Dahan who was wounded in the attack, also moved with his family from Sderot a few years ago. “We came from fire to fire. We left Sderot after our house was hit a few times. My mother’s house was hit. I was wounded,” he said. Congregant Israeli Shimon Abitbol immediately protected his grandson when he heard the shots. “Without thinking twice, I lay down on my grandson and protected him,” Abitbol told Times of Israel. “After I counted seven or eight gunshots and there was a lull — I assume the weapon jammed — I took my grandson and rushed outside through a side door; we gathered all the children there.” Abitbol, a paramedic with the Magen David Adom service, also tried to perform CPR on Lori Gilbert-Kaye, who later died from her gunshot wounds. ■

consciousness of the Israeli people,” Gross says. “Once you get used to that, this almost feels like an extension of that in a way.” Gross further adds that looking at the bigger picture, this is a continued page in the book of a 3,000-year history of anti-Semitism and, as response, communities should band together in solidarity. “This is unfortunately another notch in the belt of our very turbulent history — we can’t allow that to intimidatee us into hiding,” Gross says. “It’s about the power of numbers — banding together and focusing on the things that unite us rather than the differences that divide us. “Let’s all go out there, showing our Jewish pride, standing in solidarity across the nation.”

RABBI MENDEL ALPEROWITZ For Rabbi Mendel and Mussie Alperowitz, word of the Poway Chabad shooting came from police officers. “About mid-afternoon on Shabbos, we were playing with our children and heard a knock at our door,” said the rabbi of the Chabad Jewish Center of South Dakota, who lived in the Detroit area for three years while attending the Lubavitch Cheder and Yeshiva-International School for Chabad Leadership in Oak Park. “It was the Sioux Falls police who came to offer us their protection and

Action Needed to Combat Anti-Semitism The head of the Anti-Defamation League, CEO Jonathan Greenblatt, told reporters on a conference call Sunday that President Donald Trump, politicians and tech executives need to be more proactive in fighting anti-Semitism on social media and in public discourse. “They need to stand united against hate and address it not only after it happens but by enforcing norms before there is a crisis and by elevating our shared values long before we have to deal with a trag-

tell us that a Chabad synagogue in Poway had been attacked, with at least one dead and several injured. They didn’t have much other information to share at that time.” For the Alperowitzes, the news was both horrific and personally distressing because Mussie’s cousin is junior rabbi of the congregation. “It is hard to describe the fear we had during the next few hours until the end of yom tov (during which they do not use electronics), knowing that our cousin and his two young daughters were likely in the shul during the deadly attack, but not knowing much else,” said the rabbi. After Shabbat, it was confirmed that their cousins were safe but had been in the synagogue when the gunman opened fired. “Having our own daughters the same age literally made us tremble,” Alperowitz said. “Just imagine the devastating impact this could have on a young child watching the violence. Even if they were not physically harmed, the innocence of every child in that shul has no doubt been stolen. “While we pray for those injured, we feel it is of utmost importance to encourage our local Jewish community to remain strong and proud.” ■ Contributing Writer Shelli Dorfman added to this report.

edy,” he said. “And we desperately need our leaders to stop politicizing the issue. Those who dismiss anti-Semitism when it comes from their side Jonathan of the aisle are only Greenblatt minimizing the issue and perpetuating the problem. “We need the president and the White House to direct [the Department of Homeland Security] to take deliberate action to devote resources to analyzing domestic terror threats. These homegrown threats are equal if not more dangerous than Islamist threats,” he said. ■

O

ak Park native Phil Raimi and his son Aaron, 22, stayed up late last Friday night and slept in Saturday morning. Raimi chose not to wake his son to go to shul for Shabbat services and Yizkor on the last day of Passover — that decision may have saved them from harm. “I feel like it was almost Divine intervention,” said Phil, 62, who moved to the San Diego area in 1982. “My mind keeps flashing back to if we had gone to Chabad of Poway and that guy had barged in.” On April 27, six months to the day of the shooting at Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh, a teen armed with an assault rifle entered Chabad of Poway (20 miles north of San Diego) and began shooting after making an anti-Semitic slur. Alleged shooter John Earnest injured three people and killed one — Lori Gilbert-Kaye, a dedicated synagogue member who was trying to protect others. In news reports, the mayor of Poway has called the shooting a hate crime. Raimi, his wife, Susie, and sons David, 25, and Aaron know Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein, Gilbert-Kaye and members of the congregation. The Raimis live in Rancho Bernardo, about eight minutes from Chabad of Poway. David and Aaron attended preschool there and, although not a weekly attendee, Phil goes to minyan there and other services and programs. The JN reached Phil Raimi as he was leaving a vigil for the victims at a neighborhood church. He drove by Chabad of Poway on his way home and also passed where the suspect’s car still stood behind barricades. He noted the bullet holes. Raimi describes the community

as very family-oriented, a nice community of middle- and upper-middle class families, a mixture of all kinds of people. “How could a 19-year-old kid who grew up here be so filled with hate?” he asks almost to himself. “I suspect he might have been aware of the ending of Passover and saying Yizkor,” said Raimi, a technical writer for a cloud computing company. “There would be a lot more people there than on a normal Shabbat. I suspect that didn’t escape his thought process. “It’s shocking. You go to a shul for so many years. You go for Pesach and Yizkor and get gunned down. It’s crazy. Security has crossed my mind … What would happen if a lunatic came through and shot things up? I am in shock that this happened where I know everyone.” He said Saturday that his wife and Aaron were very upset by the attack; his other son David focused his attention on gathering information on the incident. Family members across the country reached out to lend support as did friends from Oak Park and from his family’s long association with Congregation B’nai Moshe. Driven by the memory of his late father, Saul, who was a Holocaust survivor, Raimi says he feels strongly about not giving in to the anti-Semitic hatred. “For me personally, this won’t stop me,” he said. “We’ve had a difference of opinion in the family; my wife’s a bit hesitant to go back there, but I’m not going to let it stop me. It didn’t stop my father and what he went through in the Shoah. “If we let stuff like this stop the Jewish people, we would’ve been stopped a long time ago … We are not going to let hate stop us.” Raimi also notes that his thinking has changed about the Second Amendment over the years to a less liberal stance. This Shabbat, he said he was thankful an off-duty Border Patrol agent at the shul tried to stop the shooter as he fled. “I am against attempts to disarm people,” Raimi said. “My father survived the Shoah and one of the first things Hitler did was to disarm the population … I don’t want places of worship to be armed camps, but it’s crazy to disarm people — and that’s the way I see it now.” ■

Shortly after the shooting of Rabbi Yisroel Goldstein at the Chabad of Poway, the horrific news made its way to his brother Rabbi Aharon Goldstein of the Chabad House of Ann Arbor. “Someone came into the synagogue on Shabbos afternoon and said they heard there was a shooting at a Chabad,” said Aharon Goldstein’s son, Rabbi Alter Goldstein of Ann Arbor. “Then we heard it was in California. And then word came that it took place in Poway at my uncle’s synagogue. “I didn’t want my father to know about it until after I got more details,” he said. “I wanted to wait until after Shabbos when we could call our family in Poway, but too many people were coming to us with information. When I told my father about his brother, we knew he had been shot but was safe and did not have life-threatening injuries.” When Shabbat ended, they heard a chilling account of what had taken place. “My cousin who went to visit the family said my uncle confronted the gunman,” Alter Goldstein said. “He had stepped into the hallway of the shul before starting his sermon and saw the shooter. My uncle literally went for the gun and was shot. Then the gun jammed. “We need to be vigilant,” he added. “Even in times of relative peace, we need to remember that Jews have always been a target. Our greatest power is being united. Chabad’s greatest idea is that all Jews are one big family. This hit my personal family, but we are all one, everywhere in the world.” ■ — Contributing Writer Shelli Liebman Dorfman

Walk for Israel Adat Shalom to host annual event to show support for the Jewish State.

ome rain or shine, Andre Douville hopes Israel supporters will bring their blue-and-white pride for the Walk for Israel Sunday, May 5, at its new location at Adat Shalom Synagogue in Farmington Hills. Douville, who founded the walk 15 years ago with help from his dedicated committee, said the family-oriented day will celebrate all that is positive about Israel. With three modern-day holidays cropping up on the Jewish calendar, including Israel’s Memorial and Independence days (Yom HaZikaron and Yom Ha’atzmaut) and Yom Yerushalayim, Jerusalem Reunification Day, Douville said “May is that Israel time of year.” The weekend is also crowded with other events, including the kickoff of the Lenore Marwil Detroit Jewish Film Festival at the Jewish Community Center and a Yom HaShoah observance at the Holocaust Memorial Center. So, Douville is grateful Adat Shalom is hosting after many years at Temple Shir Shalom in West Bloomfield, where Douville had been executive director. “We loved our relationship with Shir Shalom and the committee for years has thought of changing things up by alternating the walk’s location to different parts around town,” said Douville, who has family in Israel and lived there himself for many years. “We hope our walk along Northwestern Highway will draw more people and increase our exposure to help all people understand the important relationship between the United States and the State of Israel.” Douville said the walk is expected to draw about 2,000 people; he counts on a good showing from the area’s congregations, schools and Hebrew schools as well as other non-Jewish organizations that have shown sup-

port previously. He also said Farmington Hills police said they will have a highvisibility presence in light of the incident at the Chabad of Poway in California. Adat Shalom Executive Director Alan Yost said he and his congregation are honored to host the walk, which coincides with their Synergy Weekend featuring scholar-in-residence, journalist, book author and former IDF soldier Matti Friedman. “It worked out to offer the community an exciting event and they can also hear a talk from Friedman to begin the day,” Yost said. Before the walk, U.S. Rep. Brenda Lawrence, U.S. Sen. Gary Peters and other local dignitaries will address the crowd. Adat Shalom Hazzan Daniel Gross and other clergy will lead the U.S. and Israeli national anthems. Though Douville understands these are polarizing times in both American and Israeli politics, he said the walk encourages people to put aside differences to celebrate the essence of Israel. The day starts at 10:30 a.m. with a talk featuring Friedman and continues with a free kosher lunch, a carnival and entertainment by Star Trax. The walk will begin at 1:30 p.m., taking participants on a roundtrip stroll up and down Northwestern Highway for a little more than a mile. The carnival and activities go until 3 p.m. Donations of $5 or more are greatly appreciated, Douville said. There is ample parking in Adat Shalom’s two main parking lots. Handicap parking will be in the auxiliary parking lot and be clearly marked. Parking attendants will assist. Participants should expect a security presence with uniformed and plain clothes officers; bags will be inspected. Advanced registration is encouraged walkforisrael.org. ■

An Unlikely Hero Stark family owes its survival to Detroit businessman Herman Osnos.. JUDY GREENWALD CONTRIBUTING WRITER

I

magine this: It’s 1936. You’re a 16-year-old boy living in Munich with your parents and your younger brother and sister. With the ever-increasing danger of being Jewish in Nazi Germany, subject to the horrifically harsh Nuremburg Laws, terrifying bands of Hitler Youth vandalizing homes and businesses, and the indiscriminate disappearance of friends and neighbors, your parents make the difficult decision to send you to England. Move ahead to 1937. After experiencing freedom and education at Buxton College, whose headmaster A.D.C. Mason gained notoriety for accepting German Jewish youths escaping fascist tyranny, you still fear for your family’s safety. Using your newfound command of English, you begin urgently writing dozens of letters, desperately searching for someone who can help your family escape to a better life in the United States. Then, in 1938, against all odds, mere weeks before the violence of Kristallnacht would break out, you find a generous Jewish businessman in Detroit who makes the unbelievable promise to provide affidavits for you and your brother, and later, for your parents and little sister. Sounds like the plot of a thrilling World War II movie, no? But for Dr. Robert Stark, it’s the true story of his

family’s rescue by Herman Osnos, owner of the iconic Sam’s Cut-Rate Department Store on Randolph Street in Detroit’s Campus Martius district. And it’s a story of friendship, one that began with the heroic actions of a stranger reaching out to help people in need and has continued over the years. ESCAPING THE NAZIS “My grandparents, Hermann and Klara Stark, fearful over the safety of their three children, made the reluctant decision to send their eldest son — my father, Walter — to England,” Stark, of Greenwich, Conn., explained. “While there, he saw how bad things were getting in Germany, and he started writing letters to strangers or to people he thought might be relatives, trying to get his family out. “My dad wrote one fateful letter in 1937 to Albert Schmidt, a non-Jewish former employee of my grandfather’s clothing store who had moved to Detroit. (My grandfather even gave Schmidt some suits to take with him to America!) In the letter, my dad pleaded: ‘My family is in danger; do you have any way of helping us to get over?’ Schmidt took the letter to his boss, Herman Osnos, who made the incredible decision to help by providing affidavits for my dad and my uncle Werner, people p p he’d never met, swearing he’d be

responsible for them. That’s how they were able to escape in the fall of 1938.” Stark’s father and uncle were safe, but his grandparents and Aunt Lilo were still trapped in Germany. “After Kristallnacht, my family went into hiding in the Black Forest,” Stark said. “Then, in 1939, Mr. Osnos again gave three affidavits for my grandparents and aunt, who also came to Detroit. My family was immensely grateful for the lifesaving actions of this generous man!” Osnos, the son of Russian Jewish immigrants, was born in 1900 in New York and grew up on his family’s farm in New Jersey. He moved to Detroit and began working at Sam’s Cut-Rate, eventually becoming a company executive. He married in 1920, and he and his wife, Helen, had a son, Gilbert. Stark said his family kept in touch with the Osnos family, and they even sent him a gift for his bar mitzvah. He said the two families lost touch after the Osnos family moved to Stamford, Conn., but then, when Stark also moved to Connecticut to begin his medical practice as a cardiologist, he decided to look up Herman to renew the relationship. HERMAN OSNOS’ LEGACY “I found Herman as an elderly man in a nursing home in Stamford,” Stark said. “I visited him once, and then shortly afterward, he passed away. Then when a my m son David had his bar mitzvah, I invited Gilbert and his family to attend. i David remembers that the Osnos famD ily’s i presence almost overshadowed his big b day!” During another visit to the Stark’s house, Gilbert brought a large box with h him. h “In the box were copies of the many letters my father had written m pleading for someone to rescue him,” p Stark remembered. “I learned Gilbert S had h donated the originals to the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in

Washington, D.C. During a 2018 trip to Washington, my family, including my three sisters who live in Michigan, saw those original letters. It was very moving to see my father’s handwriting as a 17-year-old boy, and I was so impressed that he could do such a thing.” According to the museum’s records detailing Osnos’ correspondence: “Herman Osnos was a Jewish American businessman who supported many European Jewish refugees in their quests to immigrate to the United States before and after the Holocaust … While working for Sam’s Cut-Rate and during the period of increasing hostility and persecution against Jews in Europe in the 1930s and 1940s, Herman advocated for Jewish refugees’ entrance into the United States. “As an advocate, Herman served as a member of the Jewish Welfare Board and attempted to help as many refugees as he could seek asylum in the United States. Nearly all of the persons requesting help from Mr. Osnos had never met him and had only heard through friends or colleagues that he was willing and able to supply affidavits of support.” “My family was so fortunate to have someone like Herman Osnos rescue them from an oppressive regime,” Stark said with emotion. “Nowadays, we have a similar obligation to help others. Issues of immigration and refugees have always been of special interest in our family. Whenever I read about a dire situation in Syria or Central America, I think about ways we could help. “It was tremendously moving to see my father’s letters in the Archival Collection of the U.S. Holocaust Museum. Hopefully their public display will influence others to do similar acts of lovingkindness for people in need.” ■ To learn more about Herman Osnos, access the William Davidson Digital Archive of Jewish Detroit History at djnfoundation.org.

jewsinthed Medved to Keynote Breakfast for Israel

Ethnic Intimidation MSU Hillel intern received anti-Semitic death threats. KERI GUTEN COHEN STORY DEVELOPMENT EDITOR

A

Jewish student intern at the Lester and Jewell Morris Hillel Jewish Student Center at Michigan State University in East Lansing was urged by Hillel staff to report anti-Semitic death threats he’d been receiving via Facebook messages last October, according to Robyn Hughey, Hillel associate director. Hughey said staff learned about the trouble when some of them began getting Facebook messages, too. “While we were not scared for our lives, we were worried for our intern’s safety,” Hughey said. “We put additional security into place to ensure the safety of our students. When we initially received the messages, we did not know much of the backstory and our students’ safety is our first priority. We quickly learned that our staff, students and building were not the target — the accused was focusing his attention on our intern.” Using court records that included a personal protection order, the Lansing State Journal reported April 25 that Jack Hurlbut, 19, of Eaton Rapids was jealous his ex-girlfriend had moved on to a date with a new man — the intern, who is from Metro Detroit. The threatening messages escalated. Hurlbut also called the Hillel twice. “The accused called the building twice and spoke with Executive Director Cindy Hughey both times,” Robyn Hughey said. “The

second time was when she told him she would call the police if he called again. All contact with him and our staff then stopped. This was in November.” Robyn Hughey also said Hillel’s executive director “has been fully cooperating with the police and prosecutors, which is why she has not given any public comment.” According to the State Journal story, one of the messages referenced Hitler. The story said the first message appeared the day before the Tree of Life Synagogue shooting Oct. 27, 2018, in Pittsburgh, where 11 people were killed and seven were injured. The intern filed a complaint Nov. 15 with the East Lansing Police Department, which led to Hurlbut being charged with ethnic intimidation, a felony punishable by up to two years in prison, and malicious use of telecommunications services, the State Journal reported, adding that ethnic intimidation is not a charge commonly used in the state. Since 2014, 160 people have been charged with ethnic intimidation in Michigan, according to the State Court Administrative Office. Criminal charges were filed in a hearing in late January, the State Journal reported. Hurlbut was due to appear back in court at 2 p.m. April 30 for a pretrial hearing. He is currently free on bond; his attorney declined to comment last week, the story said. ■

Fun with Dogs Bring your pooch to this event put on by student leaders. STEFANI CHUDNOW SPECIAL TO THE JEWISH NEWS

D

o you want to donate to great causes and enjoy a fun afternoon at the same time? On May 11, you can do both at the third-annual Bring Your Own Dog (BYOD) event. Brought to you by the Bloomfield Hills High School Student Leadership group, this event includes a rescue dog adoption center and a no-leash zone for dogs to play, as well as a fair where many local businesses will be represented, such as Pet Supplies Plus, Premier Pet Supply, Ruff Life Photography and more. As a member of Bloomfield Hills High School Student Leadership, junior Rikki Goldman came up with the idea for the BYOD event in her freshman year of high school. “A friend and I wanted to create a dog park event because there are no good dog parks near us,” Goldman said. “Because our student leadership class offered us the opportunity to create a large-scale project, we were able to make our idea a reality.” Bloomfield Hills High School Junior Class President Lexie Finkelstein, added, “We were united by our mutual love of dogs and serving the greater community. Our original goal for BYOD still stands today: supporting local dog shelters with fiscal donations and awareness, supporting the local small business community, and uniting the community through a fun and charitable event.” The $3 minimum admission to

BYOD benefits Detroit Animal Care and Control as well as Detroit Dog Rescue; the latter is Detroit’s only no-kill shelter. “We have so many programs at Detroit Dog Rescue, from caring for dogs who have cancer to our outreach program in Detroit where we’re reaching out to neighbors and supplying them with dog food, spay and neuter programs, and vaccinations,” Detroit Dog Rescue Executive Director Kristina Millman-Rinaldi said. “It really is community initiatives like BYOD that keeps our movement moving forward, and we love when younger kids get involved because there is so much they can bring to the nonprofit sector.” The event will also host the Impasto food truck and face painting services for additional entertainment. Bloomfield Hills High School sophomore Ben Silberman, who’s working on the PR for the BYOD event and serves as the executive tech adviser for the Student Leadership group, wants everyone to know that they don’t have to necessarily be dog-people to stop by BYOD. “You don’t need to have a dog to attend,” Silberman said. “If you’re a cat person, great! Everyone is welcome at BYOD.” The BYOD event takes place Saturday, May 11, from 11:30 a.m.4 p.m. at 26425 Wellington Road in Franklin.

Subtle Parallels

SUZANNE CHESSLER CONTRIBUTING WRITER

A scene from the opera Grapes of Wrath

KEN HOWARD

Grapes of Wrath opera explores plight of migrant workers in Steinbeck’s time, encouraging insight today.

yricist Michael Korie believes that every new work of art should speak to the issues of the day but not in an obvious way. Composer Ricky Ian Gordon agrees. Together, they worked that goal into the development of an opera, The Grapes of Wrath, based on John Steinbeck’s Pulitzer Prize-winning book, carried into John Ford’s movie adaptation, about the plight of migrant workers. While the storyline takes place during the Dust Bowl and Depression of the 1930s, when displaced Oklahoma farm workers sought daily sustenance and opportunity in California, the two hope their musicalized production encourages insight into the desperation and strivings of today’s migrant workers. The writing team will be in Detroit for the technical week and opening of the opera, running May 11-19 at the Detroit Opera House. Plans are in the offing for at least one of the show’s creators to hang out in the lobby and talk to audience members reacting to the production. “I like the dawning of awareness, and I feel that people begin by watching a work that they think is historical as it catches up on them that very little has changed,” says Korie, whose other projects, with a range of composers, reach from musical theater that includes Grey Gardens to opera that includes Harvey Milk. “Some people respond to the issue of immigration or a wall. Other people respond to a sort of hidden power that runs the system. Others respond to family tragedies — loss of jobs, loss of income, loss of hope. “It’s all very relatable because [the characters] are based on real people whom Steinbeck lived with. He followed them on the road for years as he kept his journals.” The commission for the opera, reduced to two acts as presented by the Opera Theatre of St. Louis, originally was the idea of Minnesota Opera. The project launched with Gordon, who brought in Korie. Together, they set up some general ideas, but lyrics preceded music. “There was a moment in my life when I suddenly realized I wanted to continued on page 34

NONFICTION OPERAS Both Gordon and Korie share a special interest in nonfiction opera. While Gordon brings a sense of grief experienced through loss of family and a longtime partner, Korie brings a sense of politics and news experienced through a stint in journalism. Both have brought their Jewish sensibilities into opera development. Gordon worked on Morning Star, about Jewish immigrants in early 20th-century New York, and 27, about Gertrude Stein. Korie, in writing the opera Kabbalah with Stewart Wallace, traced the history of mystical interpretation of the Bible throughout the diaspora after spending months in Israel with Kabbalistic communities. With religion and history in mind, Gordon and Korie are working on an opera about anti-Semitism, a story of the past and an alarm for now. The Garden of the Finzi-Continis adapts the book written by Giorgio Bassani and film directed by Vittorio De Sica taking place in Italy before World War II. In transforming Grapes of Wrath into opera, the team made a change to the storyline. It has to do with the loss of a character. In the book, the character disappears and is assumed dead; in the opera, the death becomes

a personal sacrifice to benefit family by removing a burden. Both men, entering their 60s and active in the New York gay community, readily tell about mothers as exemplars of people establishing careers in the arts. Gordon’s mom, Eve Samberg (stage name Saunders), was a singer-comedian who entertained in the Catskills, where he joined her as accompanist in his teen years. Korie’s mom, Janet Indick, is a sculptor often working with Jewish themes. Gordon studied at CarnegieMellon University and Korie attended KEN HOWARD

write opera,” says Gordon, whose earlier attention had been given to art songs and musical theater. “I sent 16 of my songs to opera companies and said I really want to write an opera. It was very fruitful because Houston Grand Opera commissioned my first opera, the Tibetan Book of the Dead. Next was Minnesota Opera and Grapes of Wrath.” In choosing a lyricist, Gordon approached Korie based on stage achievements. Gordon defines the collaboration effect as “ballad opera” with the use of a chorus for background details. “Steinbeck wrote journalistic chapters in between his story chapters,” Korie explains. “He would write about agribusiness or weather and kind of erect barriers that his characters would run into in the following chapters. “I converted these chapters to dramatic music with Ricky [using the chorus] to dramatize and set up the obstacles like the dust itself, the [exploitation at] used car lots and the eviction process.”

Brandeis and New York universities. Gordon’s visit to Detroit extends earlier professional travels to the state. He has conducted master classes at Michigan State University and the University of Michigan, where he recently delivered a commencement address for graduates of the School of Music, Theatre & Dance. Although Grapes of Wrath is sung in English, it will have supertitles to give additional clarity to the lyrics.

“I like to be involved with the supertitle projections, so they don’t distract,” Korie says. “I want audiences [essentially to experience the opera] through the music and acting. “It’s up to the librettist and composer these days to write dramatically sound works, and supertitles force us to be better in that regard. Now that everyone can read it and understand every word, it better be good.” ■

EARLY YEARS Kline, who grew up in a Reform Jewish home, attributes his desire to become an actor to his family. “My sister is three years older than me and she studied ballet. Seeing her dance made me want to perform,” Kline says. “My father had wanted to be an actor during the Depression, but he had to help out the family and instead became a tradesman. My mother was a bookkeeper with a beautiful voice. They both loved the arts and that had a big influence.” Born and raised in New York City, Kline moved to Los Angeles in 1976. In 2005, he moved back East and, about seven years ago, began teaching a drop-

Adrienne Shelly’s Legacy Waitress, the Broadway musical, was inspired by the movie written, directed and starring Adrienne Shelly, whose birth name was Adrienne Levine. Raised on Long Island, N.Y., her father, Sheldon “Shelly” Levine, passed away when she was young and, as a tribute to him, she took his first name as her stage surname. Sadly, Adrienne was brutally murdered Nov. Adrienne Shelly 1, 2006, by a 19-yearold undocumented Ecuadorean construction worker working in the same building as her Greenwich Village office. She was survived by her husband, Andy Ostroy, and her then 2-year-old daughter, Sophie. Ostroy established the Adrienne Shelly Foundation, which awards scholarships, production grants, finishing funds and living stipends to artists. In her honor, the Women Film Critics Circle gives an annual Adrienne Shelly Award to the film that it finds “most passionately opposes violence against women.” The movie Waitress, which also starred Keri Russell, Cheryl Hines and Nathan Fillion, was released posthumously in 2007. The musical Waitress officially opened on Broadway April 24, 2016. It starred Jesse Mueller with music and lyrics by Sara Bareilles.

ADRIENNE SHELLY FOUNDATION

Kline’s five decades of acting began after earning an undergraduate degree from Queens College in New York, an MFA in theater from Northwestern University and serving three years in the military, including two years in Vietnam. He acted in college and graduate school but made his professional debut in the Lincoln Center Repertory Company in 1971. He went on to perform in regional theater and made his Broadway debut in the show City of Angels in 1990. He was in the national touring company of Wicked and stood by for Nathan Lane in a show called November. He also starred in the one-man show Boychik OffBroadway. Among his more than 75 television credits are Gilmore Girls, Judging Amy, That ’70s Show, NYPD Blue, LA Law, Mary Tyler Moore, Maude and The Americans. He’s been seen in almost a dozen films including Barry Levinson’s Liberty Heights. He also directed Noel Coward’s Present Laughter in Los Angeles, where he won the L.A. Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Direction. He became part of sitcom history when he landed the role of Larry Dallas, Jack’s friend and smarmy upstairs neighbor on Three’s Company. “It was a dream working on that show,” says Kline, who keeps in touch with co-stars Joyce DeWitt and Pricilla Barnes. “I started in a one-shot guest appearance as the upstairs neighbor. I guess they saw chemistry between John (Ritter) and myself because that led to a five-year deal — and a few years after that. It was truly like a family. John led the parade with his humor and graciousness, and it rubbed off on everyone. It was a terrible loss when he passed away.”

in acting class in Manhattan. Kline says he’s looking forward to coming to Detroit. “It’s one of the places we will be stopping for more than a week — it’s a two-week run,” he says. “I am hoping to explore Detroit and even go up to Ann Arbor and visit my friend Vincent Cardinal, chair of the musical theater department at the University of Michigan.” Meanwhile, Kline hopes when the audience walks out of the theater, they will be uplifted. “There are a lot of people who were or are in a bad relationship and can relate to Jenna,” he says. “But the show has a happy ending. Here is a girl who breaks free from an abusive, unhappy marriage — and it’s very empowering. It’s all about female power, and that’s a good thing.” ■

AT THE MOVIES Opening on May 3 is Long Shot, a romantic comedy/drama starring Seth Rogen, 36, and Charlize Theron. Rogen plays Fred Falarsky, a brash reporter for a liberal alt-weekly. He loses his job and, shortly thereafter, runs into Charlotte (Theron), his old babysitter, who is now the Secretary of State. Fred charms her with his self-deprecating humor and his memories of her youthful Halston Sage idealism. She decides to run for president and hires Fred to punch up her speeches. They begin a romantic affair that threatens to torpedo her campaign. Advance reviews are very good. Most say the leads have real chemistry and that makes their film romance plausible. Also opening May 3 Ed Asner is The Samuel Project. Emmy and Tony winner Hal Linden, star of the hit series Barney Miller, stars as Samuel, a Jewish grandfather who connects with his teen grandson for the first time when the grandson makes Samuel the subject of his senior year art project. Samuel tells his grandson of his narrow Seth Rogen escape from capture in Nazi Germany when he was a boy. His grandson turns the story into a very good short animated film. (Plays Birmingham 8 Theater for one week. Also screens at 1 p.m. Sunday, May 5, at the Lenore Marwil Detroit Jewish Film Festival, JCC). Zoe Levin

NETFLIX OFFERINGS Bonding is a seven-episode comedy series that began streaming on Netflix on April 23. Peter, a young gay man, acts as a bodyguard/assistant for a friend of his, a grad student who moonlights as a dominatrix. Tiff, the dominatrix, is played by Zoe Levin, 25.

Levin was born in Chicago and went to a Chicago Jewish day school through the fourth grade. Her family then moved to Glencoe, a heavily Jewish suburb. She began performing at the nearby Skokie Jewish Community Center at age 8. In 2014, she got her first notable TV role in Red Band Society, a short-lived Fox series about a group of seriously ill teenagers. Bonding is Levin’s first starring role. She told the New York Post that her transformation into a dominatrix wasn’t complete until she was fitted for an all-black, body-hugging costume: “I felt like a completely different person. The boots and the heels and the corset — it’s like her armor; she’s ready to go into battle.” Levin also learned how to crack a bullwhip. This is not a show for everyone. The script, the Post reports, has Tiff (Levin) “barking orders at submissive clients who pay to be humiliated in all sorts of creative, surprising and visually eye-popping scenarios.” Ed Asner, 89, has a supporting role in Dead to Me, a 10-episode series that begins streaming May 3. Christina Applegate plays Jen, a sardonic widow set on solving her husband’s recent hit-and-run murder. She bonds with Judy (Linda Cardenalli), an upbeat person she meets at a support group. Judy holds back on telling Jen something that would rock Jen’s already shaky world. Also starting on May 3 is The Last Summer, an original Netflix film. The plot is familiar: High school grads wrestle with love and friendship during their final summer together before heading off to college. Halston Sage, 25, has a large role as Erin, one of the grads. Sage co-starred as Alara Kitan in the first two seasons of The Orville, a Fox sci-fi series. ■

Platt came out to his family at 12 years old and publicly in 2019, through the music video for his song “Ease My Mind.” He created the role of Evan Hansen in Dear Evan Hansen (and won a Tony, a Grammy and an Emmy), starred in the Pitch Perfect movies and blows everyone away with his voice. Platt, a former camper at Camp Ramah in California, told the Times of Israel he credits Conservative Judaism’s camping movement with helping him “decide for myself what kind of Jew I would be.” His father is the producer Marc Platt. Tickets are $58 and up.

Sweetwaters Coming to Troy

Como’s Returns to Ferndale Como’s is scheduled to re-emerge at the corner of Nine Mile and Woodward in Ferndale with a completely renovated space. The fresh Woodward Avenue façade sets the tone with subtle brick signage alongside the original neon sign soon to be accented with natural wood trim. The patio will be rejuvenated with colorful highlights and murals created by local artists. Chef owner Zack Sklar will debut his take on Detroit-style deep-dish pies. Built on the foundation of naturally fermented dough, he will use quality ingredients, ranging from house-made sausage to imported cheeses. Gluten-free and vegan pizzas will be featured as well. In addition, the menu will showcase pastas, sandwiches and Sklar’s latest incarnation of the build-your-own-salad. Two bars will serve cocktails, wine and offer 20 beers on tap. Two evenings of festivities are planned with proceeds from the events benefiting local charities: Pre-Opening Event on Friday, May 3, for friends and family will benefit Brilliant Detroit, a literacy nonprofit created by Peas and Carrots co-owners Jim and Carolyn Bellinson; and a Grand Opening Saturday, May 4, “Como’s Coming Out Party” benefiting Ruth Ellis Center and Ferndale Pride — the evening will include a silent auction. Limited seating for both evenings is available. To donate silent auction items or reserve seating, contact rsaruna@ peasandcarrotshospitality.com or call (248) 929-2921. ■

Troy will soon be home to Sweetwaters Coffee & Tea at 774 W. Big Beaver Road near the Somerset Collection mall. The 1,700-squarefoot café is set to open this spring and will offer a globally inspired menu featuring premium coffees, teas, pastries, sandwiches, salads and more. Franchisee owner Stephanie Beck was drawn to Sweetwaters’ community focus and local Michigan base. “Sweetwaters began in Ann Arbor over 25 years ago and has developed deep roots here in Michigan,” Beck says. “It is important for me to support a local company and give back to the community I grew up in.”

The Sweetwaters’ brand focuses on community engagement, such as hosting events and partnering with nonprofits. Most recently, Sweetwaters won the People’s Choice Award for Best Beverage Category at the Boys and Girls Club annual “Taste of Troy” event. The Sweetwaters menu includes signature drinks such as the Ginger Lemon Tea, Dragon Eye, French Vietnamese au Lait, Napali Brew, Thai Iced Tea and Red Moon coffee. The grand opening will include events and week-long promotions that will be announced on Sweetwaters’ website or on Facebook. ■

Pinky’s Rooftop Opens in Royal Oak Pinky’s Rooftop, a new concept from Adam Merkel Restaurants, has opened in downtown Royal Oak on the second level of 100 S. Main St. (formerly Red Fox Rooftop). It offers an eclectic, vintage vibe with dining and lounge seating in a lush rooftop outdoor garden. Pinky’s Rooftop was inspired by an old restaurant and speakeasy in Detroit located at Jefferson Avenue and Grand Boulevard near Belle Isle called Pinky’s Boulevard Club. “Pinky’s has its own distinctive personality showcased through the menu and decor,” said Adam Merkel, owner of Adam Merkel Restaurants. “Our goal was to bring a stand-out, one-ofa-kind experience to Royal Oak’s dining and nightlife scene.” The menu, created by Merkel and culinary director Craig Myrand, features American and Asian-inspired small plates and seafood, with signature dishes such as Sashimi, Black Truffle Ramen and Short Rib Wonton Tacos and craft cocktails like Pinky’s Ice Pops, Turning Japanese and The Buddha. The restaurant, designed by architect Ron Rea, seats 83 guests inside the garden-themed outdoor rooftop, a 27-seat all-season patio and 44-seat outdoor patio, with all areas serving craft cocktails and shareable small plates. Beginning May 4, Pinky’s Rooftop will begin offering a weekend brunch, available every Saturday and Sunday from 10 a.m.–2 p.m., with regular dining hours to follow.

Quelling the ‘Greektown in trouble’ rumors and other assorted happenings.

Saganaki from Pegasus

umors will never stop … Ones about Greektown’s restaurants in trouble are among the latest falsehoods … They might have come because a couple places closed for remodeling … Greektown rumors have been a lip-mover since the early 1800s after German immigrants developed it as a residential community and then began to move out of the Downtown neighborhood into areas further away … But then newly arrived immigrants moved in and established businesses … By the 1920s, Greektown in Downtown Detroit became primarily commercial … and still is … Most of the Greek immigrants moved out but not their restaurants, coffee houses, bakeries, etc. … Detroit’s Greektown still receives much nationwide note. One eatery, New Parthenon, was bought by the Jim Pappas family, owners of Pegasus … and its former owners are now assisting in running their Northwest Uptown Parthenon, which recently celebrated its 29th anniversary in West Bloomfield. (Bet you never knew that Jim Pappas also had a delicatessen … It was back in 1975 on Cadillac Square in Detroit, and he called it Pickle Barrel.) THE FLAMES FROM oodles of Saganaki Opa! were enough to bring out the fire department … But it knew that Uptown Parthenon, West Bloomfield, was whooping it up on one of its Greek Nights … The music from a huge speaker was loud, a gent played an exciting

raskin the best of everything

xylophone, a gent was singing, Herman Leader whooped it up, standing atop a table with lamb chops in both hands; smiling Lana Mini elegantly danced with graceful belly precision; and servers like Ted Stavropoulos were as fast as the flames … as the event date also came out on Uptown Parthenon’s 29th anniversary. SURE, SHE MOVED … But not far away … Judie Koploy’s Slade’s Gift Shop is now just across the hall, still at the Orchard Mall on Orchard Lake Road and 15 Mile, West Bloomfield … Or maybe Judie wants to be near Shangri-La at the Mall and continue eating Cholada Chan’s yummies there. GINOPOLIS’ SMOKEHOUSE has been feeding folks 40 years in Farmington Hills, but it isn’t the end of that name … Peter Ginopolis will run their Ginopolis Smokehouse in Brighton, Mich. … as Ginopolis Smoke n’ Pit BBQ … and will still have those delicious Montgomery ribs … Ginopolis Smokehouse in Farmington Hills will remain open through June and July. REAR VIEW MIRROR … Lelli’s Inn on Woodward, Detroit. where its owner, Nerio Lelli, was as round as a ping pong ball and head chef of his own restaurant with mouthwateringly out-of-this-world food … superb dishes that elevated pasta, steaks, veal, etc., from the mundane to the superb … like a huge family porterhouse steak for four, broiled and sliced at the table. DOWNTOWN DETROIT Buddy’s

Pizza will open around October or November of this year … It will seat 200 plus 30 on a patio and full bar … Location of Madison Building, owned by Dan Gilbert’s Bedrock near Grand Circus Park, is the former location of Angelina Italian Bistro. OLDIE BUT GOODIE … The man was lying across three entire seats at a concert. When the usher noticed this, he whispered to the man, “I’m sorry sir, but you’re only allowed one seat.” When the fellow didn’t budge, the usher became impatient and said, “Sir, if you don’t get up from there, I’m going to call the manager.” The man just muttered but once again did nothing. The usher marched back up the aisle and, in a moment, returned with the manager. Together the two of them tried repeatedly to move the disheveled man, but with no success. Finally, they called the police. The officer asked, “All right, buddy, what’s your name?” “Fred,” the man moaned. “Where you from, Fred?” asked the officer. With a terrible strain in his voice, Fred replied, “The balcony.” CONGRATS … To Jon Isenberg on his birthday … To Mallory Sharpe on her birthday … To Aaron Stone on his 28th birthday … To Mel Kerman on his birthday … To Ellen Shaffus on her birthday. ■ Danny’s email address is dannyraskin2132@gmail.com.
