Book of Remembrance KAM Isaiah Israel Congregation 1100 E KAMIsaiah Israel ESTABLISHED 1847 יזכור Book of Remembrance KAM Isaiah Israel Congregation 1100 E. Hyde Park Boulevard Chicago, IL 60615 kamii.org | 773.924.1234 Memorials Hallowing Their Memory If you wish to have the memory of your loved one permanently enshrined within our Sanctuary, you may inquire about a bronze Memorial Plaque at the synagogue office. For information regarding memorial gifts, please contact Andy Kirschner at [email protected] or 773.219.0228. These beloved past and present members of our congregation departed from life during this past year. Jacquelyn (Yocheved) Seevak Sanders Jerry Kaganove Jerry L. Solomon Jodie Ackerman Marianne Dreyfus Muriel Rogers Rachel Nussbaum (Wichert) Trudy Lehnhoff Zelda Star The death of a loved one leaves us in a world of darkness. We feel unsure of what to do, where to turn. In the darkness, questions abound – the timeless theological questions of our people, and the urgent questions of the moment: “What do I do now?” “How do I make arrangements?” “How can my tradition guide me at this time?” As the practical dilemmas become resolved, we return to the questions of the heart: “How could this happen?” “What does Judaism teach me about death, about the afterlife, about immortality?” “How will I cope?” At no other time in our lives do we so need each other, our congregation, our community, and our faith. Yet, in all of our struggles we are blessed – Judaism’s practice and promise hold out a beacon of hope to guide us along our journey. This Memorial Book is part of KAM Isaiah Israel’s ongoing commitment to perpetuate the memory of our loved ones. We offer it to you today in the hope and with the prayer that it will be of comfort to you during this service of yizkor and beyond. Please note the resources in the back of the book that are designed to serve you and help you. While these resources are an important part of our outreach during your time of grief, it is only one part. It is not a substitute for our concern for you. We are here for you, so feel free to call upon us, to visit with us, to ask questions. We pray we can be of help. Two of Judaism’s greatest mitzvot are to remember the blessed memories of our loved ones and to comfort the broken hearted. In fulfillment of these mitzvot, we offer this Memorial Book to you.

  • Faith Voices Letter
    In Support Of Keeping Houses Of Worship Nonpartisan August 16, 2017 Dear Senator: As a leader in my religious community, I am strongly opposed to any effort to repeal or weaken current law that protects houses of worship from becoming centers of partisan politics. Changing the law would threaten the integrity and independence of houses of worship. We must not allow our sacred spaces to be transformed into spaces used to endorse or oppose political candidates. Faith leaders are called to speak truth to power, and we cannot do so if we are merely cogs in partisan political machines. The prophetic role of faith communities necessitates that we retain our independent voice. Current law respects this independence and strikes the right balance: houses of worship that enjoy favored tax-exempt status may engage in advocacy to address moral and political issues, but they cannot tell people who to vote for or against. Nothing in current law, however, prohibits me from endorsing or opposing political candidates in my own personal capacity. Changing the law to repeal or weaken the “Johnson Amendment” – the section of the tax code that prevents tax-exempt nonprofit organizations from endorsing or opposing candidates – would harm houses of worship, which are not identified or divided by partisan lines. Particularly in today’s political climate, engaging in partisan politics and issuing endorsements would be highly divisive and have a detrimental impact on congregational unity and civil discourse. I therefore urge you to oppose any repeal or weakening of the Johnson Amendment, thereby protecting the independence and integrity of houses of worship and other religious organizations in the charitable sector.

  • An Open Letter from Illinois Clergy and Faith Leaders on Marriage
    for An Open Letter from Illinois Clergy and Faith Leaders on Marriage We represent people of faith from a variety of communities across our state, and we strongly support the Illinois Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act. We dedicate our lives to fostering faith and compassion, and we work daily to promote justice and fairness for all. Standing on these beliefs, we think that it is morally just to grant equal opportunities and responsibilities to loving, committed same-sex couples. There can be no justification for the law treating people differently on the basis of sexual orientation or gender identity. We accept our gay and lesbian brothers and sisters and recognize that their families need equal recognition and protections. We believe all Illinois couples should have the same civil protections and urge our public officials to support measures to achieve equality. There are differences among our many religious traditions. Some recognize and bless same-sex unions, and some do not. The important thing is that the Religious Freedom and Marriage Fairness Act protects religious freedom and guarantees that all faiths will decide which marriages should be consecrated and solemnized within their tradition. The sacred writings and traditions that we follow carry the messages of love, justice and inclusion. The very basis of marriage is to protect the family, strengthen our communities and advocate compassion. No couple should be excluded from that. We want to promote the common good – that which is best for individuals, couples, families, children, and society. As people of faith and as citizens of Illinois, we ask you to stand for freedom for all of our citizens and support the freedom to marry.

Exile and martyrdom, two tools for mass liberal politicisation The aftermath of the 1848 European revolutions saw significant increase in political exiles. The drift back towards authoritarian monarchies, coupled with the new role played by measures to take in political migrants in certain European states (France, Great Britain, and Piedmont), contributed to a massive increase in their number and the generalisation of the practice of exile.

  • Special Articles the Assault on Holocaust Memory
    Special Articles The Assault on Holocaust Memory BY ALVIN H. ROSENFELD J EWISH LITERATURE OF THE HOLOCAUST is animated by the im- perative to remember. Through the innumerable pages of the testimonial writings of those who endured the ghettos and camps of occupied Eu- rope runs a passionate determination to record the Nazi crimes and trans- mit knowledge of them to others. These authors, for all the differences in their backgrounds and the diverse nature of their Jewish identification, issue one common appeal: know what has happened to us in these infer- nal places, and keep the memory of our fate alive. To be sure, the inscription, transmission, and reception of historical memory are not simple matters. The work of the Holocaust deniers, whose manifest malevolence and dishonesty—as proven in Deborah Lip- stadt's legal victory over David Irving in a British courtroom in 2000— put them beyond the pale, should be less a cause for concern than the work of the critics of what is coming to be called, pejoratively, "Holo- caust consciousness." These are writers who question not the facts but the prominence of the Holocaust in public consciousness and the motives of those who seek to perpetuate its memory. Norman Finkelstein is a case in point. His book, The Holocaust In- dustry, published in 2000, indicts "The Holocaust" as an ideological rep- resentation of history that has been fraudulently devised and "sold" to the American public in order to revive a faltering Jewish identity and to "justify criminal policies of the Israeli state and U.S.
