Sponsored by Emanu-El, the Berkley Clergy Association and the Huntington Woods Peace, Citizenship and Education Project, the evening was designed to "remember the vic- tims, to challenge our leaders and to reclaim our citizenship?' The Rev. George Covintree of the Berkley First United Methodist Church opened the commemoration event with a Remembering of the Dead prayer, referring to all the inno- cent people who died, from those lost in the Twin Towers to disaster workers, American soldiers and Iraqi citizens. Next came the plaintive Jewish prayer for the dead, El Molei Rachamin (God full of compassion), sung by Emanu-El Cantor Darcie Sharlein. The 20-member Berkley Interfaith Choir followed with a beautiful rendition of Sim Shalom (Grant Us Peace). Mohammed Musa, imam of the Muslim Unity Center in Bloomfield Hills, took the podium, saying "Peace be with you" in Arabic and "Shalom," Hebrew for peace. "We are here he said, "to remember the innocent people who were killed Sept. 11 by criminals who do not rep- resent any religion but only the Satan thought. "This is a huge tragedy for Americans, Muslims, Jews and Christians. What happened is a major violation of the teaching of the Koran, the teachings of all three religions and of human thought itself. We are all related and all one family" Citizen's Voice Dr. Ronald Aronson, a professor at Wayne State University in Detroit and a member of the Huntington Woods Peace, Citizenship and Education Project, spoke of active citizenship as the best antidote to the fear and passivity that grew out of the 9-11 attacks. "The real work of citizenship;' he said, "is to be active, critical-minded citizens and educate ourselves about our interdependency with the world." He then opened the floor to a spir- ited community discussion. Sharlein ended the evening leading everyone in singing This Little Light of Mine. Li
