We honor the bravery of Ahmed al Ahmed, a bystander who risked his life to protect those under fire. The lesson, yet again, is all too clear: Our safety is bound up together.

Violence, whether driven by antisemitism, racism, Islamophobia, or any other form of bigotry, must be stopped.

Our hearts are with our friends, family, fellow community members and everyone impacted by this terrifying event. 4/4

To be confronted with this horrific act of antisemitic violence during the Jewish festival of light and hope is shattering. In moments like this, we hold each other close.

We should all be able to gather with our communities, practice our culture, and worship in safety. 3/4

Many within our community have just received the worst news of their lives. Others are caring for injured loved ones, and some are still waiting to hear that their families are safe. 2/4
