Oberlin College Students, Others Unite Against Hate
The names echoed above the crowd of nearly 200 keeping vigil inside Peters Hall at Oberlin College (OH):
Joyce Fienberg. Richard Gottfried. Rose Mallinger. Jerry Rabinowitz. Cecil Rosenthal. David Rosenthal. Bernice Simon. Sylvan Simon. Daniel Stein. Melvin Wax. Irving Younger. One by one, organizers of Friday’s Oberlin Community Sunset Vigil read in both English and Hebrew the names of 11 Jewish worshipers killed in the Oct. 27 mass shooting during Shabbat, or Sabbath, morning services at the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh.
