Also, according to the article, he was awarded Datteln’s Etienne Bach Prize, which honors “individuals committed to promoting understanding and reconciliation between people of different and historically adversarial cultures.”The event, moderated by Oak Park resident and community leader Linda Francis, will open with a traditional German welcoming of dignitaries and a signing of the “Golden Book.” The discussion will center around the promotion of peace and unity within communities, especially in spaces that have been historically divided.
