                    Best Of BPR 10/7: For Maya Roman, Every Day Is Oct. 7 & Ilan Stavans On Shared GriefToday:We mark one year since Hamas terrorists from Gaza invaded Israel, killing more than 1,000 Israelis, and taking 250 hostage. In the 12 months since, Israel’s military response has resulted in more than 40,000 deaths of Palestinians – the majority civilians. We talk with Maya Roman, a relative of one of the hostages, Carmel Gat, who was killed in August in captivity. And, we reflect with Amherst College professor Ilan Stavans about the shared grief for Israelis, Palestinians and the world at large… but we’ll also appreciate a little joy. Tomorrow, Ilan publishes his great new Jewish-Mexican cookbook: Sabor Judio.
