I wrote on the shockingly bad CBS interview of Ta-Nehisi Coates, the watering down of “antisemitism,” and the fear, dread and confusion of this year’s Jewish high holidays and upcoming U.S. presidential election. It’s a lot. But maybe it resonates with you, too. L’Shanah Tovah.

That’s why as we approach this high holiday season, which in 2024 contains the one-year anniversary of the October 7 attacks on Israel and falls one month before the U.S. presidential election, I have never felt more alone, more upside down or more fearful for the next year.

Thank you so much for writing this and putting into words the anger I felt after watching the interview with Mr. Coates. He was ambushed by a man with an agenda that was determined to make all suffering about Israel. He wanted Palestinian voices silenced. What you and Mr. Coates do is vital.
