I hear the anger and pain behind the criticism of my post. I understand that to many, the image I shared appears to equate the oppressed with the oppressor. That was not my intent. My aim was to highlight the humanity and innocence of children on both sides of this conflict, and express my deep longing for a reality in which all children can live in safety and freedom. I know this is an incredibly complex and emotionally charged issue with a long history of trauma and injustice.I don't claim to have all the answers. I'm simply someone who has seen the devastation of this conflict firsthand and feels overwhelming grief at the suffering and loss of life on all sides. My heart breaks over the death and violence inflicted on innocent Palestinians. I also hold pain over the Israeli civilians and children who have been killed in attacks. I know many feel my stance is misguided and that I'm profiting off Palestinian suffering. That is truly not my intention and I apologize for any pain I've caused. Personally, I'm struggling to make sense of it all and find my place. What I do know is that I care deeply about justice and the equal worth and dignity of all people. I cannot stay silent in the face of hatred and dehumanization of any group. For me, the only way forward is to keep reaching for shared humanity, even when it is unpopular.I don't expect everyone to agree with my perspective. All I can do is strive to act with integrity, hold space for the pain on all sides, and plant seeds of care in a hurting world. I welcome thoughtful discussion and aim to keep learning and growing. Thank you for engaging with my post, even in disagreement. I see your humanity too.
