Author’s Note: I am reposting this after Donald Trump’s victory. We’ve heard what he has to say about Muslims. Trump markets in fear. But it is certainly true that horrific violence in the name of Islam is a daily staple of our news feed. So where is the real conversation we should be having? Dear Friends, We don’t know each other.
