Great Neckers resume weekly march

Weekly walks are resuming in Great Neck, to raise awareness about the hostages still held in Gaza.

Run for Their Lives is a movement founded by a group of Israelis in California, in collaboration with the Hostage and Missing Families Forum. The Great Neck effort was organized by Michael Reznik and Irina Amir.

The walks, which began in October 2023, were relaunched on Sunday, March 30, by Great Neck residents, including members of the New York Hindu community.

Among those participating on Sunday were Pankaj Mehta from Americans 4 Hindus; Nassau County Legislator Mazi Pilip; Assemblyman Daniel Norber; and activists Andrew Zeidman and Dr. Paul Brody.

The marchers walked from the gazebo in the Village Green down Middle Neck Road, to raise consciousness about the hostages among myriad onlookers.

Similar displays of solidarity are taking place in communities around the country, with several in the New York area including one in Riverdale. One of the largest gatherings occurs each week in Central Park.

Members of the Great Neck community and friends from around Long Island area are urged to join when the weekly marches resume after Passover, on Sundays at 10:30 am.
