VIDEO: Brooklyn Law School students join in vigil to honor Pittsburgh synagogue victims
A vigil in front of Brooklyn Law School in memoriam of the 11 people murdered last weekend in the Tree of Life Synagogue in Pittsburgh brought together students from several faiths on Thursday night.
The crowd of dozens, which included faculty staff members, gathered at the school courtyard where students delivered speeches condemning the Pittsburgh shooting and calling on others to join each other in solidarity.
“We realized how important it is to stand in solidarity with our Jewish brothers and sisters at all times but especially in these terrible times of hatred,” said Felicia Castaldo, social chairwoman of the Muslim Law Students Association, one of the event’s organizers.
