Thank you, Mahmoud, for your poem. Today, I was at a gathering where there were many friends who spoke about the tragedy you are living in Gaza. These friends fight in our community against police who act like bullies. We are called Citizens for Justice. These friends have supported Palestine for many, many years in their actions, much more than I have. I just want you to know there are people here in the US who pray for Palestinians every day and cry real tears for you, your family, your neighbors. I know you know this already. I just had to say it. I am so very sorry for this country's complicity in the suffering in Palestine. It is incomprehensible to me and very, very disturbing. I wish us all peace and enough food to eat, everywhere, but especially at your house. Sincerely, Erica
