Special to the Birmingham Times  Wanda Howard Battle, a well-known African-American Christian vocalist and church tour leader will take center stage April 14 when the Israeli embassy in Washington hosts a virtual celebration for Israel’s 73rd Independence Day. Battle, a Montgomery powerhouse whose parents were involved in the Civil Rights Movement, was invited to sing “Hatikvah,” Israel’s national anthem, after meeting Israel’s ambassador to the US, Gilad Erdan, during his recent trip to Montgomery.
