It’s hard to escape the horrific images coming out of the Middle East.

Key Points: 
  • It’s hard to escape the horrific images coming out of the Middle East.
  • First came the news of the Oct. 7 attack by Hamas on Israel.
  • 1,400 people were viciously attacked and murdered and at least 200 more were kidnapped and taken hostage.
  • For all of us though, it’s raised intense challenges about how to talk about what is happening currently and what has been happening for decades.
