...each other,” she says. It is this kind of philosophy that has guided her efforts to build community. Sandra L. Di Capua ’07, who has had Shabbat dinner with Cohen almost every Friday night during their time at Harvard, recalls a particular meal when her friend introduced herself to 50 or 60 people at dinner and evoked laughs. “Here was this Friday night Jewish dinner and she was comparing it to a Ghanaian feast, bringing the world together in a sense.” Cohen’s involvement in HASA...

He had had one of those nights when we met for breakfast, and he spent the meal nervously doodling on napkins and periodically asking me to turn my recorder off. Oakley's fears aren't entirely irrational. A creepy robotic caller left messages across the city on election day: "Ed Oakley has a radical gay agenda for Dallas ...
