Sara Tarana Jobin, resident conductor of the Toledo
Symphony and Opera, will speak about ways to Counter Hate
with Compassion – and music. Sara has been involved in
local and international peace initiatives, including organizing
a group of 60 performers from 8 different countries in
Dachau last September 13. They performed the entire Bach b
minor Mass in this little convent built just outside the walls of the
concentration camp memorial site, as a way to bring balm to the souls who
had perished there and really as a healing for the space. Noor Inayat Khan, a
real Hero of Compassion, was martyred at Dachau. She is an example of a
Muslim who gave her life to save Jews and others during World War II.
