Kathryn, California

It is with great sadness, and I must admit also anger, that I write these words to you, Khader, and your family.  I hold you all in my heart, thoughts and prayers.

 

I have faith that your selfless, brave act, will bring change to the Palestinian people and other oppressed peoples around the globe. You speak for all of us, that indignity, injustice, and inequality will no longer be tolerated in our world.

 

I mourn your sacrifice and pain, but hold you as a symbol of hope for the awakening that must take place for all of us to live together in peace and love.
