In an effort to provide further context for the Tale of Two Cities article, Urban Drash will post a series of emails made available to the blog.
This first email was sent at 10:24am May 1, 2011, less than 24 hours after the anti-Semitic incident in Brighton. The email, from a Home Acres resident, speaks for itself...
From: ------------------ [mailto:-----------------]
Sundown last night began the Jewish Observance of Yom HaShoah, the remembrance of the Holocuast.
Last night around 11::00 visitors to, or residents of, Home Acres, chose to light a Swastika in gasoline on Edgemere between Southern Parkway and Eastland.
My daughter came upon it while walking home from a friend's house and showed it to my wife, who informed the police.
We are appalled and deeply disappointed that something like this could happen in our neighborhood, which we love.
I'd like to ask the board to ask the town to get the asphalt repaired/replaced as quickly as possible to remove this stain from our neighborhood.
