“The American administration has not only given the green light to this Zionist aggression and the war of genocide and ethnic cleansing against our people, but has always positioned itself as a loyal advocate for (Israel) in all stages of its aggression and terrorism. Today, it brazenly repeats the Zionist lies, which hold Hamas responsible for resuming the war and not extending the humanitarian truce.”Tom O’Connor, “Hamas Takes Aim at Biden as Truce Gives Way to New Fighting in Gaza,” Newsweek, December 1, 2023, https://www.newsweek.com/hamas-biden-truce-fighting-gaza-1848905.

Marking International Holocaust Remembrance Day, the Counter Extremism Project's ARCHER at House 88 presents a landmark concert of music composed in ghettos and death camps, performed in defiance of resurgent antisemitism. Curated with world renowned composer, conductor, and musicologist Francesco Lotoro, the program restores classical, folk, and popular works, many written on scraps of paper or recalled from memory, to public consciousness. Featuring world and U.S. premieres from Lotoro's archive, this concert honors a repertoire that endured against unimaginable evil.
