Safe Driving in Road Work Zones — An Important Issue

Since 1999, the Federal Highway Administration has worked with the American Association of State Highway and Transportation Officials (AASHTO) and the American Traffic Safety Services Association (ATSSA) to coordinate and sponsor the event. Over the years, other transportation partners have joined the effort to support National Work Zone Awareness Week. In addition to the national event conducted each year, many states host their own events. As the construction season starts, we need to be mindful of workers and anyone else traveling through work zones

by asking them to slow down, pay attention and drive safely. Speeding in work zones is against the law and puts those who work there as well as those who drive there in danger.

ach year in the spring, National Work Zone Awareness Week is held to bring national attention to motorist and worker safety and mobility issues in and near road and highway work zones.

National Work Zone Awareness Week, sponsored by federal, state and local transportation officials each April, draws attention to the safety needs of road workers during construction season.

zones, enhanced worker training and heightened awareness among drivers. All commercial truck and bus drivers must be more vigilant whenever they encounter a work zone, since most fatal crashes in work zones involve large trucks and buses. Too many drivers are using their cell phones while driving. In the past, by comparison, most complaints were about drivers putting on makeup, looking at maps, being overworked and falling asleep. With every driver being alert and focused on safety at all times, crashes can be avoided and lives will be saved.

Generally, crashes occur when drivers speed through a work zone, do not pay attention to changing road conditions, run into other vehicles or highway equipment, or drive off the road completely.

“The men and women who build and maintain the infrastructure that makes life in New York City possible deserve a safe working environment,” said former New York City Department of Environmental Protection Commissioner Emily Lloyd. “At DEP, we provide our employees with the training and experience to safely work on our streets, but we need the public’s help to prevent accidents and injuries.”

GUEST EDITORIAL AG Sessions Escalates Threats Against Sanctuary Cities By Amanda Hoover Christian Science Monitor

U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions ramped up threats to so-called sanctuary cities late last month, saying the government would take “all lawful steps to claw-back” federal funding awarded to cities that do not fully comply with federal immigration enforcement. Briefly, a sanctuary city is one that de facto permits illegal immigrants to live there. Mayors of sanctuary cities want illegal immigrants to have less fear so that they will be more willing to report crimes, use social service and health benefits and enroll their children in school. Police in these cities are often prohibited from questioning people about their immigration status. President Donald Trump has signed an executive order that intends to deny funding to cities that refuse to share immigration status information with Immigration and Customs Enforcement and to detain undocumented immigrants who commit nonviolent crimes.

Soon afterward, Attorney General Sessions took that harsh stance a step further, suggesting that cities could not only lose out on future funds but that the federal government may require them to pay back grants that have already been rewarded. “I urge the nation's states and cities to carefully consider the harm they are doing to their citizens by refusing to enforce our immigration laws,” he said, speaking at a press briefing. The funding threats to sanctuary cities are not entirely new. Last year, former President Barack Obama’s administration said cities which that to comply with federal immigration law put themselves at risk of losing funding. Many have raised concerns that sanctuary city protections can allow dangerous criminals to avoid deportation efforts, putting the public at risk.

such as victim services, body camera initiatives for police departments and police involvement in community events. Dozens of U.S. cities, including Philadelphia; Austin, Texas; New York City; and Los Angeles as well as many other small cities and towns, consider themselves sanctuary cities. But Sessions and the Justice Department can’t move in on the cities just yet. Under the terms of President Trump’s executive order, the Homeland Security Department (DHS) will have to determine what constitutes a sanctuary city before restricting funding. For now, the classification does not have a legal definition. The DHS has been tracking such cities weekly, and has added 120 cities and counties that it deems uncooperative to a list that has yet to be finalized.

But local law enforcement officials in cities around the nation say that refusing to hold nonviolent, minor offenders until immigration agents arrive to detain them helps to bolster a healthy relationship between police and minority communities. They also say that this, in turn, results in a higher rate of reporting crimes and makes it easier to speak with witnesses who do not have legal documentation.

Following Sessions’ comments last month, many local officials stood up to vouch for the protections, saying the threats would not scare them into compliance with measures they believe endanger their communities.

If the Trump administration makes good on its promise, sanctuary cities stand to lose out on a shot at some $4.1 billion in federal funding that goes to programs

“L.A.’s values are not for sale,” Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti said. “Slashing funds for first responders, for our port and airport, for counterterrorism, crimefighting and community-building serves no one.”

Brooklyn Borough Hall Rally Protests Trump’s HUD Budget Cuts Continues from page 1 “I’m laughing just to keep from crying,” she told the Brooklyn PHOENIX on Monday. The budget cuts would affect, among other items, operational funds responsible for repairs. “At the point when the building doesn’t pass inspection, the owner can lose the subsidy,” she said. In rapidly-gentrifying Sunset Park, tenants already have enormous insecurity about their housing, Ortiz said. “If the development’s owners think there’s a risk of the program being defunded, they’ll drop out of the program and families will have no place to live,” she said. “You have senior citizens aging in place here. What’s going to happen to them? Where will they go?” Doris Williams, 81, lives in the Joseph Yancy Senior Housing project in upper Manhattan. The building, part of the Section 202 program, provides low-income elderly with supportive services that allows them to live independently. “I’m very concerned,” she told the Brooklyn PHOENIX. “They’re already saying there’s not enough money for the things we need. We used to have 24-hour security. Now there’s no security between the hours of 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.” Williams says the doors to the building are so heavy that many of the residents, especially

those in wheelchairs or walkers, can’t get in without help. For more than a year now, those who can’t open the doors have to wait outside until someone else comes in or out. Ortiz and Williams were just two of dozens of protesters at Brooklyn Borough Hall Plaza on Sunday speaking out against the proposed cuts, which amount to $6 billion, or 13 percent of HUD’s budget. In New York City, Trump’s budget will cut $550 million from two agencies: the NYC Housing Authority (NYCHA) and NYC Department of Housing Preservation & Development (HPD). Officials said that Trump’s budget, if approved, would directly hurt 500,000 of New York City’s poorest families and cause a surge in homelessness. “The national budget is a roadmap of our national priorities,” U.S. Rep. Nydia Velázquez told the crowd. “How could you say to the people of this country that cutting funding for [NYCHA] is a national value?” Velázquez said the budget cuts will also slash grants that provide money to go after unscrupulous landlords, along with funding for shelters and Meals on Wheels. “You are going to tell me Mr. Trump and Mr. [Ben] Carson, that taking food away from

seniors represents our values. Shame on you!” Velazquez said. Public housing is already stressed in New York City, officials, said. Deputy Borough President Diana Reyna said that HUD started cutting back on funding for NYCHA back in 2001. Carmen Quinones, president of the Douglass Houses Tenants Association, said that Trump’s cuts are deplorable, “but this is a

problem that’s been ongoing. It’s just getting real right now. Your house is up for sale, do you get it? Your grandkids ain’t gonna have nowhere to live.” Numerous advocacy groups organized the rally, including GetOrganizedBK, Community Voices Heard, Mutual Housing Association of New York, New York Communities for Change, NYS Tenants & Neighbors and others.

Citi Bike a Surprising Success in Bed-Stuy, Study Finds Restoration Corp. Says Rides Increased Significantly in 2016 By Paula Katinas PHOENIX

An eye-opening new report sheds light on the surprising success of the Citi Bike bicycle-sharing program in Bedford-Stuyvesant and offers suggestions on how to replicate that achievement in other low-income communities of color around New York City. The report, titled “Bringing Equitable Bike Share to Bed-Stuy,” was commissioned by the Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation in partnership with the National Association of City Transportation Officials. The study found that Citi Bike has seen a great deal of success in Bed-Stuy since it was introduced in 2013. Among its findings: nearly 200,000 more Citi Bike rides took place in Bed-Stuy in 2016 than in 2015. The impressive growth in ridership in Bed-Stuy is above the city average, according to the report.

Bed-Stuy has several Citi Bike stations, including one at Fulton Street and Verona Place. The study highlights a 2015 effort in which Bedford Stuyvesant Restoration Corporation (also known as Restoration) partnered with Citi Bike, the Department of Transportation (DOT) and the Department of Health (DOH) to encourage participation in bike-sharing in Bed-Stuy through a series of outreach events that included community bike rides and helmet fittings. “People must be able to get to work and school, and with a limited budget, transportation can oftentimes present a significant barrier to opportunities like employment and education. Citi Bike presents an affordable and convenient transportation alternative with subsequent health benefits. We’ve learned a lot along the way and want to share these lessons and best practices with the broader community in hopes that neighborhoods everywhere follow our lead,” said Restoration CEO and President Colvin Grannum. Back in 2013, when Citi Bike arrived in Bed-Stuy, many longtime residents were skeptical of the program, believing it would be a harbinger of gentrification, according to the report.

But leaders of Restoration went about trying to change public perception. “We wanted to change neighborhood conversation from focusing on gentrification to exploring how bike share can help residents achieve their personal goals,” said Tracey Capers, executive vice president for programs at Restoration. DOT Commissioner Polly Trottenberg said the efforts made by Restoration have “made a real difference in getting the community to embrace bike share.” The report also details Restoration’s work in promoting cycling as an active lifestyle choice and an affordable transportation option for the Bed-Stuy community. For the past two years, the organization has hosted more than 80 community rides under a program called the Better Bike Share Partnership. To date, the program has attracted more than 2,000 local residents. “The changes rooted in the voices and values of its residents will have a lasting positive impact,” said Dr. Mary T. Bassett, commissioner of DOH. “Restoration’s Better Bike Share Partnership is an example of the tremendous gains that can be made when this happens.”

Councilmember Robert Cornegy Jr. (D-Bedford-Stuyvesant) has participated in several bike safety events in the community. “Bed-Stuy’s Better Bike Share Partnership has demonstrated that bike share can thrive in low-income [communities] and communities of color. We have witnessed first-hand the program bolster the business community, benefiting both residents and visitors alike,” he said. Throughout this year, Restoration will be leading 15 events to help residents incorporate the benefits of bike-sharing into their lives, including bike safety classes. Citi Bike, named after its sponsor Citigroup, is a bike sharing program introduced in New York City in 2013. For a fee, riders pick up bikes at docking stations and are able to use them for short rides. Riders can return the bikes at other docking stations. Citi Bike has 10,000 bikes at 600 docking stations in Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens and Jersey City.

Stable Immigration Patterns Help Make Brooklyn No. 1 By Raanan Geberer Special to Brooklyn PHOENIX

Brooklyn is No. 1 — in population within New York state, that is. And immigration has a lot to do with it. According to recently released figures for 2016 from the U.S. Census Bureau’s U.S. Population Estimates, there were 2,629,150 people in Kings County last year, more than in any county in the state. This represents an increase of about 5,000 from 2015, when estimates showed a population of 2,624,951 for Brooklyn. In fact, Brooklyn’s estimated population has increased year by year since the 2010 overall Census survey, which showed 2,504,700 people living in the borough. This represents a 5 percent increase in population. Only the Bronx, with 5.1 percent, had a larger increase in people over the six-year period. During the same period, the number of people who moved to or from Brooklyn domestically was minus-169,064, meaning that overall, that many more people left Brooklyn for other parts of the U.S. than came to Brooklyn from elsewhere in the country. Internationally, however, Brooklyn saw a net gain of 136,787, representing people who came to the borough from other countries. Therefore, the slow but steady rise in Brooklyn’s population is more a result of the large number of immigrants coming here from all parts of the globe than it is of any large influx of young professionals and artists coming here from the Midwest or the West Coast, although, of course, this is also an important trend. Thus, in terms of overall population movement, however, East Flatbush, Sun-

set Park and Bensonhurst are far more typical of the borough as a whole than Williamsburg or Greenpoint. There are also certain variables that the Census Bureau doesn’t provide for 2016 but did provide for 2015 and 2010 — for example, racial and ethnic origin. The Latino and African-American populations changed very little: from 19.8 percent in 2015 to 19.5 percent in 2010; and from 34.3 percent in 2010 to 34.8 percent in 2015, respectively. The Asian population grew slightly, from 10.5 percent in 2010 to 12.4 percent in 2015. The non-Hispanic white population was also basically stable, increasing from 35.7 percent in 2010 to 35.9 percent in 2015. Since the white, African-American, Latino and Asian populations all showed little percentage change, that tells me that many people and/or their family members are staying in the borough and that patterns of immigration are basically the same as they were at the beginning of the decade. While the statistics provided don’t break down immigration to Brooklyn, most observers know where large numbers of Brooklyn immigrants hail from: China, Mexico, Central America, the Caribbean, the countries of the former Soviet Union, the Mideast and more. The Census statistics also allow us to look at the borough’s population by age. In 2010, 23.7 percent of the borough’s residents were under 18; in 2015, that figure had lowered slightly to 23.2 percent. The percentage of seniors 65 and older went up slightly, from 11.5 percent to 12.3 percent. All in all, these figures show a basic stability in the borough. And immigrants from all over the world are contributing to that stability.

Happy New Beer’s Day 2017! By John Alexander

So what better way to celebrate the legacy of Pres. Roosevelt than by hoisting up a cold one in his honor, for helping bring beer back for us to enjoy. Happy Beer’s Day to all!

INBrooklyn The Act took effect at 12:01 a.m. April 7, 1933 when President Franklin Roosevelt took the first step toward ending Prohibition. On that date he signed a law that allowed people to brew and sell beer in the United States as long as it remained below 4 percent alcohol by volume. Beer fans lined up at their favorite bars near mid‐ night on April 6, known as “New Beer’s Eve.” It had been thirteen long, dry years since they were able to enjoy a cold brew. And April 7 is referred to as “New Beer’s Day.”

Upon signing the legislation, Roosevelt famously said, “I think this would be a good time for a beer.”

thekbh.com

National Beer Day was begun by a gentleman named Justin Smith, a Rich‐ mond, Virginia Craft Beer Examiner, and his friend Mike Connolly from Liver‐ pool, England. April 7 was chosen because that’s when the Cullen‐Harrison Act was signed into law.

Fans have long beaten a path from the Barclays Center to visit the best hidden International Beer Hall in Brooklyn! Kings Beer Hall has all the trappings of Germany but also serves all the international beers that can fit on their large and growing beer list. Another great place to celebrate National Beer Day.

Now, the Cullen‐Harri‐ son Act did not mark the official end of Prohibition‐ that occurred months later on December 5, 1933‐but it was a damn good start. December 5 is “Repeal Day,” another reason to cel‐ ebrate with your favorite pint of suds.

elebrates the Cullen-Harrison Act of 1933, which ended the restrictions on limited alcohol on beer. Previously, thirsty fans could only consume“near beer”during Prohibition — that is, beer less than 3.2 percent alcohol by weight. The Act took effect at 12:01a.m. April 7, 1933. Beer fans lined up at their favorite bars near midnight on April 6, called “New Beer's Eve.” Pay tribute to this unofficia holiday celebrating beer in the U.S. Your logo and website imbedded in our article, which will be extensively tweeted and posted online April 5, in print April 6.

They have blankets and heaters out there, so there is a lot of the “Danish Hygge” out there — the best way to “Hygge” is coziness. Great place to celebrate National Beer Day.

Welcome to Cypress Hills Cemetery. The distinctive archway at its front entrance is a replica of one that was built in 1893.

Jackie Robinson, Mae West, Piet Mondrian Rest in Peace at Cypress Hills Cemetery By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Jackie Robinson. Mae West. Piet Mondrian. A War of 1812 veteran who lived until 1905. Four VIPs from very different milieus share the same eternal resting place — Cypress Hills Cemetery. The picturesque graveyard, which was founded in 1848, occupies a 225-acre swath of terrain that stretches across both sides of the BrooklynQueens border. It gets less media attention than high-profile Brooklyn boneyard Green-Wood. But Cypress Hills Cemetery is nevertheless an inspirational place to visit. Baseball fans, history buffs and Brooklynites who want to know their borough well should make the trek as soon as spring foliage arrives. To refresh your memory if you haven’t recently visited the scenic cemetery, take the A or C train to Broadway Junction, then switch to the J train. The Cypress Hills J train station is just steps away from the cemetery’s front entrance at 833 Jamaica Ave. By the way, the entrance has an eyecatching archway topped by a distinctive roof. It is a beautiful replica of the original entrance, which had been built in 1893. The replica was constructed some years ago as part of a successful effort by Cypress Hills Cemetery’s management to get the historic cemetery into good shape.

Cypress Hills was founded when the rural cemetery movement was just taking hold in America. This pre-Civil War movement promoted the creation of cemeteries in the countryside, on vast tracts of scenic terrain, as an antidote to overcrowded urban graveyards. Until the 1830s, in the United States the dead were buried in town, in church graveyards — which sometimes suffered alarming calamities such as floods that washed coffins and human remains right out of the ground. In a 2011 interview published in The Atlantic, Keith Eggener, who had just written a book called “Cemeteries,” explained that rural cemeteries were designed as places where visitors could step away from worldly concerns. “Cemeteries we built for ourselves, increasingly after 1830, were places with winding roads and picturesque vistas,” he told interviewer Rebecca Greenfield. “The idea being that you leave behind the mercantile world outside the gates and enter into the space where you can meditate, where you can come into contact with spirituality and concentrate.” Also, because they were built before Americans had constructed parks, botanic gardens or art museums, rural cemeteries were also places where city-dwellers went for recreation such as picnics and carriage rides, Eggener said.

Chinese-Americans’ Tomb-Sweeping Rituals ‘Rural Cemetery’ Located Alongside Busy Jamaica Avenue Cypress Hills Cemetery is situated on traffic-heavy Jamaica Avenue. Yet it looks like a steep-hilled park with ancient trees, and grassy lawns — which are studded with gravestones old and new, touching memorial statues and stately family tombs. Though today Cypress Hills Cemetery is surrounded by urban neighborhoods, it is referred to as a “rural cemetery.” Its acreage was indeed rural when the cemetery was created. But there’s more to the name “rural cemetery” than that.

INSET: Brooklyn Dodgers superstar Jackie Robinson’s admirers leave tributes such as baseballs and bats at his Cypress Hills Cemetery grave. INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan

Today, Cypress Hills Cemetery continues to be a green oasis in urban Brooklyn — and a fascinating place of religious diversity as well. Numerous sections of the cemetery are filled with the graves of Chinese immigrants and their descendants. In late March and early April, their living relatives honor them by observing the Chinese Buddhist festival of Qing Ming, or Tomb-Sweeping Day. The visitors bring gifts including flowers, sticks of incense and fake money to their loved ones’ graves. Some people leave the fake money, held in place by rocks, on top of their dearly departed’s gravestones. Others burn the paper money and paper replicas of useful things such as clothes and iPods in metal containers as offerings to the dead. Some visitors eat lunch at the gravesides. Roast pig is one customary delicacy that is served. Continued on page 8INB

Jackie Robinson, Mae West, Piet Mondrian Rest in Peace at Cypress Hills Cemetery

Cypress Hills Cemetery is a serene spot that doesn’t look like it’s located in the middle of a city. Continued from page 7INB Many families make their Qing Ming visits to Cypress Hills Cemetery — and to the Evergreens, a nearby Brooklyn cemetery with a large number of ChineseAmericans’ graves — on weekends before or after the actual date of Qing Ming. This year, it was April 4. Non-sectarian Cypress Hills Cemetery is also the final resting place for Christians of various denominations and ethnicities including British and Welsh people who died far from home, and Jews.

Baseball Bats Beside Jackie Robinson’s Gravestone When you visit this historic cemetery, be sure to step inside the office near the front entrance and ask for a copy of the map of notable people’s graves. The map posted on the cemetery’s website does not show whose grave is where. Having the right map will make it easy for you to find Brooklyn Dodgers superstar and civil rights advocate Jackie Robinson’s final resting place. The famed baseball player, who broke Major League Baseball’s color barrier in the 1940s, died in 1972. Robinson’s gravestone has an inspirational saying of his: “A life is not important except in the impact it has on other lives.”

INBrooklyn photos by Lore Croghan

The day we went to pay our respects, tributes that other visitors had left beside his headstone included two baseball bats, a tidy pile of baseballs and a sleek pair of Nike athletic shoes. Brooklyn-born movie star Mae West — a famed sex symbol who wrote nine of the 13 films in which she starred — lived in Hollywood at the time of her 1980 death. Her body was brought back home to be buried in the West family crypt, which is in a handsome old building called Cypress Hills Abbey. Piet Mondrian, an important abstract painter, is buried on a gently sloping hill that has a view of midtown skyscrapers on the distant horizon. The Dutch-born painter left Europe during World War II and came to New York to live. He died in 1944. As for the War of 1812 vet we mentioned at the start of this story, his name was Hiram Cronk. He was just 14 when he enlisted — and lived to be 105. At the time of his death, he was the last surviving veteran of that war. Cronk’s grave is marked with both a headstone and a wonderful monument topped by an eagle.  See brooklyneagle.com for additional photos of the cemetery where he and hundreds of thousands of other people rest in peace.

Highland Park and Other Fine Sights in Cypress Hills

Ah, Wilderness! No, not really. This is Ridgewood Reservoir in Highland Park, which is located at the edge of Cypress Hills, Brooklyn. By Lore Croghan INBrooklyn

Do you know the way to Highland Park? And we don’t mean the affluent North Shore Chicago suburb. That name is shared by a city park with a stunning reservoir and a fascinating mini-neighborhood that’s part of Cypress Hills, Brooklyn. There are eye-catching mansions in the neighborhood called Highland Park — plus Our Lady of Mount Carmel & St. Joseph Carmelite Monastery — on Highland Boulevard. On parts of Sunnyside Avenue, homes have mountainously steep front yards that call to mind San Francisco’s terrain. Both streets are intersected by Miller Avenue, which is so breathtakingly steep, you’ll think you aren’t in Brooklyn. By the way, the Roman Catholic Diocese of Brooklyn, New York bought the monastery property for $2.6 million in 2003 from the Society of the Franciscan Fathers of Greene, Maine, city Finance Department records indicate. There are actually five buildings on the property that the Diocese purchased. Some of them are used by the monastery, whose address is 361 Highland Boulevard. And a building that uses 341 Highland Boulevard as its address is the Pope John Paul II House of Discernment. It’s a residence for men ages 20 to 40 who are in college or working and want to figure out whether they should enter the seminary to study for the priesthood.

Arlington Avenue House for Sale Has $2M Price Tag The New York City park called Highland Park is partly located on a dizzingly high ridge, with tennis courts and sports fields down, down, down far below. The jewel in the park’s crown is the Ridgewood Reservoir, whose gate was locked the other day when we made a visit. Nevertheless, it was a dramatic sight — a glittering pond surrounded by tall brown grasses that made creaking noises when the breeze blew. On Cypress Hills streets outside the Highland Park area, there’s old-fashioned architectural eye candy at every turn. Arlington Avenue is an especially rewarding place to walk. For starters, Arlington Library, built more than a century ago with philanthropist Andrew Carnegie’s money, is at 203 Arlington Ave. Its meticulously renovated interior has two dramatic staircases, a fabulous fireplace and wonderful wood paneling. One fine home at 124 Arlington Ave., on the corner of Schenck Avenue, is up for sale at an asking price of $2 million, according to online postings. The listing broker is Brooklyn Realty Group LLC.

Continued from page 9INB Finance Department records identify the current owner of the house as Gladys Unigarro. The brick house was built at the beginning of the 20th century and was the home of builder Henry Meyer in 1913, a Brownstoner.com story by architectural history expert Suzanne Spellen

says. It has a Colonial Revival façade on its Schenck Avenue side and a Dutch gambrel roof.  See brooklyneagle.com for more photos of old-fashioned Highland Park and Cypress Hills architectural eye candy.

As communities around the U.S, deal with a rash of hate crimes targeting Jews, Muslims and other groups, Brooklynites recently decided to unite over a shared meal. Brooklyn, traditionally called the “Borough of Churches,” has transformed into the borough of interfaith ventures. A growing number of interfaith groups around Brooklyn create dialogue events and work together for justice, peace and wider circles of fellowship. This past Sunday night, April 2, The Bridge Multicultural Advocacy Project (MCP) hosted a model Passover Seder for members of the Jewish, Muslim and Christian communities and elected officials who have worked with them on civic programs and services. Mark Meyer Appel, founder of The Bridge MCP, told INBrooklyn that the organization has been doing advocacy work for 20 years. It acquired its multifunctional center on Flatbush Avenue, near Brooklyn College, 2 1/2 years ago. The Bridge MCP does advocacy, and helps change laws to help citizens on issues such as domestic abuse, public safety, education, eradicating poverty and health. Appel saw the need to step up his work in 2014 after a rash of bias incidents, and so opened the center on Flatbush. The seder brought in more than 200 neighbors and local officials, including U.S. Rep. Yvette Clarke (D-Central Brooklyn) Public Advocate Letitia James, Acting Brooklyn District Attorney Eric Gonzalez, NYC Councilmember Dr. Mathieu Eugene, Assemblymember Dov Hikind and Dr. Rudy Crew, president of Medgar Evers College. The Bridge MCP has done an excellent job of “standing by their mission of building bridges across the city rather than walls of divisiveness,” stated Clarke, who then presented Mark Meyer Appel with the Certificate of Special Congressional Recognition for his work in bringing all communities together. Highlights of the Seder were the singing of traditional Passover melodies with their theme of freedom. One of the most resonant

Tate moments: people linked arms and sang, harmonizing, the Civil Rights anthem “We Shall Overcome.” “We are brothers and sisters, who worship the same God,” declared Abu Khaliquzzaman, a prominent leader in the Muslim community and the president of The Interfaith Dialogue Project Peaceheals. Mr. Khaliquzzaman told INBrooklyn right after the event, that his own youth and education were interfaith. With a twinkle in his eye, he said, “I went to Catholic school. I’m a Muslim.” He then des-cribed his journey of wanting to learn all he could about Christianity and Judaism. “The informal communal togetherness that took place at the Interfaith Unity Seder is truly the best of New York City,” said Assemblyman Hikind. “Let’s use the example of Mark Appel and the Bridge as a model for how to go forth as a united for the common good. We owe the great people of our city nothing less.”

Interfaith Coalition of Brooklyn Hosts Passover Seder The Interfaith Coalition of Brooklyn, composed of the East Midwood Jewish Center, Our Lady of Refuge Roman Catholic Church, and members of the Muslim community, joined forces recently for its Interfaith Passover Seder. “For nearly two decades, the Interfaith Committee has worked together to help educate our community about our culture and faith traditions,” reads a flyer for the event. Likewise, Sally Hipscher of the Interfaith Coalition told INBrooklyn that this event focused more on the meaning of the Seder: “learning, share, listening, singing, connecting and nibbling.” This year’s event featured snacks and hors d’oeuvres rather than a full meal; but with the same amount of care and love poured into the preparations. The Interfaith Coalition has been especially active so far in 2017, with silent vigils at Newkirk Plaza in support of immigrants and refugees; as well as its ongoing food pantry, blood drives, shelter, Music of Our Faiths series and educational field trips.

‘Take Pärt’ Music Service Launches Holy Week at First Unitarian Church The works of 20th century Estonian composer Arvo Pärt heads off Holy Week and the spring holiday music season at First Unitarian Congregational Society in Brooklyn The First Unitarian Congregational Society in Brooklyn will continue its decades old Palm Sunday tradition with a program of choral and instrumental music. This year, Adam Podd, the congregation’s music director, is planning a program featuring the world’s most performed living composer, Arvo Pärt. The First Unitarian choir and soloists will perform Pärt’s Salve Regina, a substantial 12-minute setting of the popular Latin text which dates to the Middle Ages. Accompanying the ensemble will be Jason Asbury, conductor of the Brooklyn Heights-based Grace Chorale, and violinist Kiku Enomoto. First Unitarian’s professional quartet will sing Pärt’s beloved setting of The Beatitudes accompanied by First Unitarian’s historic pipe organ. Kiku Enomoto will perform Pärt’s famous violin solo, “Spiegel Im Spiegel,” a transcendent and meditative

instrumental piece that has been used in more than 20 films and documentaries and is probably his best-known work. The Rev. Ana Levy-Lyons, First Unitarian’s senior minister, will preach a sermon addressing the “war on meaning” in the time of Jesus and in our modern world. Through the story of Palm Sunday and Jesus’ encounter with Jerusalem, we will explore the tensions we all face when our spiritual and secular values come into conflict. The Palm Sunday service takes place at the church’s normal Sunday worship time of 11 a.m. First Unitarian Church will offer its annual Good Friday Commemorative Communion Service. This poignant service of consolation has a long and solemn history; it commemorates the suffering in the world and recognizes all those who work to alleviate it. The Rev. Dr. Kelly Murphy Mason will preach her sermon, “Two Thieves, Four Nuns, Seven Monks, and Us: Good Friday in This Time and Place”. This service takes place on April 14 at 5:30 p.m.

B’klyn Priest Named Vicar for Community Justice The Rt. Rev. Lawrence C. Provenzano, bishop of the Episcopal Diocese of Long Island, last week announced the appointment of the Rev. Marie A. Tatro as vicar for community justice, a newly-created position. Provenzano said, “I am very grateful to Mother Marie Tatro for accepting my invitation to join the staff of the diocese to shepherd the efforts of our clergy and people to serve the vulnerable in our communities in areas of immigration, housing, and equal rights and treatment. Mother Tatro will provide strong and focused leadership in areas of community justice and provide direction to the diocese in tangible ways of living the Baptismal Covenant. She will be a resource to parishes and a liaison to the many commissions and agencies that serve atrisk populations.” Tatro, a longtime Brooklynite with a background in law and advocacy, began her new position on March 29. As vicar for community justice, she has primary oversight of diocesan representation regarding social justice ministry and will serve as

a key adviser to the bishop and to diocesan staff on social justice issues. She will also work closely with the staff of Episcopal Ministries of Long Island to develop funding support for social ministries within the diocese. Tatro earned her M.Div. from The General Theological Seminary and her juris doctorate from CUNY Law School. She holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Amherst College. Prior to seminary, Tatro worked as an attorney in non-profit organizations that provide free legal representation. Tatro was curate at St. Gabriel’s Episcopal Church in Brooklyn, where she launched The Messengers of Justice Project, a service providing legal and pastoral support, referrals to individuals, and educational workshops for the community. Over the past year, she served as supply priest at churches in the Bronx and Queens. She currently serves on the Board of Directors of Faith in New York and has worked closely with other interfaith social justice organizations including The New Sanctuary Coalition of NYC.
