Attack Aftermath, School’s Out at Columbian, Goodbye Breakfast Inn

Hello, Bucket Listers. It has been a tough week for many in our area. The attack on our Jewish neighbors in Boulder is incomprehensible, but it occurred, and we are now searching for answers. Boulder Mayor Aaron Brockett told a crowd, “We will be defined by how we respond—with compassion, with unity and with an unwavering commitment to justice and peace.” The Boulder Jewish Festival will continue as scheduled on the Pearl Street Mall this Sunday, June 8, with enhanced security. Show your solidarity and support the fight against anti-semitism.       

Pearl Street Attack Sparks Community Mourning

In the aftermath of Sunday’s antisemitic terrorist attack in Boulder, members of the Jewish community are speaking out about their grief and their growing fears. Our Mark Goetzler attended this week’s vigils, where local rabbis described the pain, resilience and urgency they’re feeling. As the injured recover and investigations continue, Rabbi Fred Greene says what Jewish people need most now is to be supported. “We’re not okay,” he said, “but we are still here.”
