In the wake of Hamas’ terrorist attack against Israel, tensions have escalated globally, including in U.S. cities and on college campuses. However, amid the unrest, members of the Muslim and Jewish communities are coming together to promote understanding and mend divisions. Imam Muhammad Kolila and Rabbi Joseph Black, who have forged a strong friendship, have been instrumental in fostering interfaith relationships in their communities. Through dialogue, shared meals, and attendance at each other’s religious events, they have created a bridge between their communities and demonstrated that addressing conflict requires understanding and empathy rather than extremism.
