'In the aftermath of the deadly attack on the Manchester synagogue, Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis stressed in a BBC interview that the attack was not only aimed against Jews but also threatened the shared values of society. He underscored the danger of harmful language, noting that when dehumanising or hateful rhetoric goes unchecked it can create a climate in which physical violence is legitimised. GINGKO knew of that danger and decided to tackle it head on when we chose ‘Productive Encounters With Polemical Texts’ as the theme of our Interfaith Fellowship Retreat this year.'

You will soon be able to read about the Retreat on our website. In meantime, the WCC have written a piece about the days our Fellowship came together in Switzerland.
