A list from Diversity Memphis
From time to time Diversity Memphis circulates some dates and
events. I'm slow getting these up this month, but I'll try to be
more prompt in the next month or two. Let me know if there is interest
in my keeping this list here.
Sunday April 11: Yom HaShoah, Holocaust Remembrance Day, Jewish
commemoration honoring the memory of the six million Jews who perished
during the Nazi Holocaust.
Tuesday April 13: Vaisakhi, the Sikh New Year festival.
Thursday April 20: Israel Independence Day, Jewish celebration marking
the establishment of the State of Israel in 1948.
Wednesday April 21: Start of Ridvan, a 12-day Baha’i commemoration of
the Baha’ullah’s exile in the garden of Ridvan in Baghdad. Work is
suspended on the 1st, 9th and 12th day.
