Chabad at Pitt hosted their annual “Shofar in the Park” event on Thursday afternoon for Rosh Hashanah. Jewish students and families attended a brief service and enjoyed brisket sandwiches together on the WPU lawn. 

Over 100 students rallied in Schenley Plaza to show their support for Israel following recent attacks by militant group Hamas just outside of Gaza. Later in the evening, another group of students also rallied in response to show their support of Palestine.

Black, a self-identified African American Hasidic Jew, delivered live renditions of his songs and discussed his early experiences in the music industry and his exploration of religion.
