Your Tati would be so proud of the many initiatives you and your sisters have founded. On the subject of book shares, I’m sharing Once There was a Town by Jane Ziegelman as a follow up to a fascinating convo I recently had with a friend about researching our families’ histories. Yesterday, I shared Eli Sharabi’s breathtaking and brave, HOSTAGE, with a non- J friend who I suspect is not as familiar with OCT 7 trauma as we are. I inscribed it with a note to “ pass it on”. I’m confident that he will. Both of these belong on David’s bookshelf. Is it virtual only? Xo

Oh, how wonderful, Liz, thank you! This is so beautiful and the recommendations are appreciated! We're trying to roll out more in-person events in general, so recommendations are great. Ultimately we hope to donate actual bookshelves loaded with books to schools and community centers, but of course everything takes time. And maybe we'll do a readathon or book club, too! We're also open to ideas 💡 xo
