If we are to learn anything from the death of the eleven Jews murdered by a fascist here in the United States simply for attending synagogue in a mass shooting in Pittsburgh this week, we must acknowledge that this act of violence has been a long-time coming. The othering of Judaism and the slow bleed from division to violence has been perpetuated by every major politician in the State of Texas.
