At least 165 people, many of them civilians, were killed in a suicide bombing in Baghdad on Sunday. Among the victims was Adel al-Jaf, a young dancer known as Adel Euro.

Jonathan Hollander, President and Artistic Director, Battery Dance Company and Dancing to Connect, knew Adel well. He shares his memories of al-Jaf, how they first started communicating--and the importance of the connection outside of Iraq.
