My whole life has been spent in Jewish community in the US and Israel. I have spent time in Israel/Palestine, and I learned Hebrew and Arabic both formally in school and through connection in community. I have family and friends who are Israeli, Palestinian — and have loved ones who have served in the IDF. People in my community lost loved ones during Hamas’s attack on October 7th? beloveds killed, displaced, and taken as hostages. I am terrified by rising antisemitism around the world.
