Pittsburgh’s American Jewish Schools Seek Healing Jewry After Massacre

BY SHIRI MOSHE & Mourns BEN COHEN

On Monday afternoon, Pittsburgh Mayor Bill Peduto stood outside the independent Jewish Community Day School (CDS) deep in conversation with a small gathering of staff and parents. In the two days since gunman Robert Bowers massacred 11 worshippers and wounded six others at the Tree of Life synagogue, Peduto told the group, he had seen “a real outpouring of love that’s out there.” “It’s all directions,” Peduto remarked. “It’s the support of the Jewish community from every community, this is everyone pouring in.”

How to Respond to the Unspeakable Tragedy in Pittsburgh

BY ELISHA WIESEL We as Jews have survived for thousands of challenges of how and for whom to create paths to years and have tens of thousands of opinions. How citizenship cry out for creativity and collaboration. Adapted from remarks delivered at Ansche will we work together to confront hatred when we Fight that deaf ear and that cold-heartedness, Chesed community vigil on New York’s Upper disagree on so many things?

Because those disagreements put us in prosperous. Even an event as tragic as this threatens to positions to fix different things. And if you somehow find yourself caught in divide us rather than unite us. If you march for progressive values, then it is the center – God help you, then expect hatred from I read the news articles on my Facebook feed: your prerogative and your responsibility to fix the all corners – but it is your prerogative and your From the Corbyn left in England, a whisper that the Jews bring this on themselves for having failed to make peace in Israel with our Palestinian neighbors. From the NRA followers right here at home, a suggestion that more guns will fix the problem. From the Jews on the liberal extreme, I find an online comment suggesting that their Republican brethren are kapos – yes, that word is used – and are to blame for the shooting. And from some in Israel, a sad belief that American Jews seem to think this is different from what Israel lives with every day, and a sad disbelief to see what appears to be a condolence letter from Hamas sent to American Jewry. How to respond to unspeakable tragedy? And I think to myself: How would my father respond? He didn’t fight or lower himself into the muck with those who had only nasty things to say. He didn’t debate Holocaust deniers, or A woman reacts at a makeshift memorial outside the Tree of Life synagogue following Saturday’s right-wing nationalists, or anti-Zionists whose shooting at the synagogue in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Oct. 29, 2018.
