      I want to talk about the Tree of Life Shooting but there's so many things that are so interconnected, and I'm so filled with grief, anger, and fear that I just don't have the proper words to write something put together properly.

      I fucking love being Jewish. I feel very proud of my culture, and struck with a sense of the importance of my role to continue my culture and pass on my values.

      I have never been and will never been truly scared to express my Jewishness. I will happily celebrate holidays, and loudly mourn the plight of my people and use our suffering to try and bring about a better world.

      I am gutted and continuously shocked at those outside the Jewish community, and even more so shocked at those who are Jews, do not see what is happening right now as a gigantic flashing red light. I am shocked, I guess, that people are shocked.

      There was a shooting at a Kroger this week where a man killed two black grandparents. He said "I'm not going to shoot white people" when someone was afraid in the convenience store. These things are connected.

      I think that many jews, specifically of my parent's generation, have successfully leveraged white privilege to a degree where they felt "safe." I don't believe any single Jew would say "anti-semitism is a thing of the past" but I do think that "passing" has largely removed fear.

      We were migrants once. We were slaves once. We were the target of extermination by people who think that they deserve to live in a land more than any other group of people. Those powerful forces of hate don't just go away.

      To see the lack of empathy from people is mortifying. To see the lack of progress on issues of gun control is maddening. But to see the blindness of people as to what is really going on here is just devastating.

      My Parshah during my Bar Mitzvah was Lech-L'cha, where Abram becomes Abraham. This torah portion is the sacrament of circumcision. I've been reading over it today, as the Pittsburgh Synagogue was attacked during a bris.

          Abram's name becomes "father of multitudes" and god promises him a son, who is to be named Isaac. Literally "to laugh." Can you imagine, after years of hardships, and years of persecution, having the faith that not only will you be alright, but you will be able to laugh?

          And yet, maybe we get an answer in the Haftarah יאַל־תִּירָא֙ כִּֽי עִמְּךָ֣־אָ֔נִי אַל־תִּשְׁתָּ֖ע כִּֽי־אֲנִ֣י אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ אִמַּצְתִּ֙יךָ֙ אַף־עֲזַרְתִּ֔יךָ אַף־תְּמַכְתִּ֖יךָ בִּימִ֥ין צִדְקִֽי

          Do not fear for I am with you; be not discouraged for I am your God: I encouraged you, I also helped you, I also supported you with My righteous hand.

          So in conclusion, love each other, be proud of who you are, and mercilessly put down the Nazis and enemies who seek to destroy you and others.

          Because only then can we really have laughter. Not laughter filled with dread, or laughter over how horrible things have become, but laughter over the fact that we have made a more peaceful and loving world.

          I'm filled with such anger, such rage, and such a deep, hollow sense of despair and I can't stop working to fight against this hate because I refuse to let it consume me.
