Reflections on Holocaust & Genocides

You are invited to the;
III ANNUAL REFLECTIONS ON HOLOCAUST & GENOCIDES

Dallas/Fort Worth, Texas - The Foundation for Pluralism and several participating organizations invite you to III Annual Reflections on Holocaust and Genocides, a purposeful event to create awareness of the inhumanity in all of us, and discover solutions for peaceful co-existence.

WHEN :: 5:00 PM, Sunday, January 24, 2010

WHERE :: Unity Church of Dallas, 6525 Forest Lane, Dallas Texas 75230

WHO :: Individuals from every faith, ethnicity and race as well as leaders from civic, spiritual and business communities. No one is excluded.

COST :: The event is free, the only requirement is a firm confirmation by email to: i.will.attend.holocaust.event@gmail.com

WHAT :: People of every faith, race, ethnicity, culture and background will gather to express our commitment to co-existence, Unity, safety, prosperity and well being of every human being.

We will learn about the common people and their acts of courage when Hitler was going on with his pogroms, and how people were courageously defying the acts of terror against them or their fellow beings. How did the common folks deal with Genocides in their country? How did the indigenous Native Americans cope with it?

It takes guts to acknowledge that some one from our ethnicity, race or faith has committed atrocities, but when we do that, it will empower us to be a peacemaker. Indeed it will bring salvation to us.

We will do our best to list, recite and acknowledge each Genocide, and request you to take the responsibility to make the list complete. No one’s pain is lesser or greater than the other’s. This program allows us to reflect without blaming, forgiving but not forgetting, empathize without bias and learn to value life, every God given life.

Please remember the event is a reflection on your part as an individual, and peaceful, purposeful change towards making the society a better place.

You have the power to make a difference.

The first step in doing the right thing is, to commit to ourselves as individuals, in our own hearts, minds and souls to say “never again” to any and all atrocities and brutalities towards other human beings at home and abroad. Then we are lining up speakers to share the next steps.

INVITATION :: Your presence is requested to express solidarity with Americans; it is being an American regardless of one’s faith, ethnicity or race. It is about experiencing the sense of unity with fellow Americans with our own uniqueness and re-dedicating our pledge to liberty and justice for one and all.

We are looking for volunteers and sponsors. Details are on the website: http://www.holocaustandgenocides.com/

We prefer contributions of $100/individual, giving every individual a chance to support the event. Sponsorship for the full program is also welcome, at this time the budget is $5000.00. All funding will be accounted on this website.

Your organization can participate as a supporting or a sponsoring organization. All funds received will be listed on the website http://www.holocaustandgenocides.com/

This is an initiative of World Muslim Congress and the Foundation for Pluralism towards creating a better world. The program will be taped in its entirety.

Thank you.
