“Polska Rada Chrześcijan i Żydów” (the Polish Council of Christians and Jews) is planning to march behind Poland’s Chief Rabbi Michael Schudrich, Catholic Bishop Rafał Markowski, and Reformed Evangelical Church Pastor Michał Jabłoński, in memory of the Warsaw ghetto uprising, which began on April 19 and was quashed on May 16, 1943.

 

Based in Warsaw, the Polish Council of Christians and Jews is co-chaired by Bogdan Białek, Chairman of the Jan Karski Society, and Dr Stanisław Krajewski, a Professor at the Institute of Philosophy of the University of Warsaw. The aim of the council is to facilitate mutual understanding between Christians and Jews, overcome stereotypes, promote tolerance and deepen inter-religious contacts.
