Quotes
"How do we let people know that we love and support them while they are grieving?"

"I realized I was being othered, I was never gonna belong with the collective."
"We're all pawns in a much larger game."
"I want action behind that. I want you genuinely to feel what you're saying."
"Kindness is empathy. It's saying, 'I believe your experience.'"
"If I tell you, 'Hey, a child was murdered in the conflict,' and they ask you 'from which group?' We've lost it all, we have no human connection anymore."
"People are not their governments. We're all pawns in a much larger game. This is a moment where we need to just take a second and recognize this is not the fault of Jewish people, this is not the fault of Palestinian people. This is the fault of irresponsible corrupt, money-hungry, greedy, power-hungry governments."
"Nobody wants to see it, but when we talk about the hate that is happening for people who support Palestine, I just challenge everyone to understand that we don't have a word. Islamophobia does not, first of all, it stems in the word phobia, which means fear of not hate too.""
