Today I was in a room full of Jews and Muslims when I found out that a gunman had shot up a Jewish event.
We all shared the pain together. A Palestinian man from Gaza who happened to have moved here 2 weeks before October 7 expressed his pain at our tragedy. Many of his family members are dead, and many others are in tents now. And still, he stood with us.
These moments will be used to divide us. Thats the whole reason they are committed. To tear us all into different factions so one can win and one can lose.
Buying into that worldview hands the shooters and bigots a win by creating the world they want. The only actual way to defeat them is to stand firm in building a world of dignity for all.
This is what the Palestinian in the room did for us. It is what the Muslim man who risked his life to save Jews did. This is the way to win. This is how we beat those who want a world of division and violence.
