I found this piece when searching for information to explain the beautiful hamsa my daughter bought me in Morocco to a friend. My daughter, whose heritage includes 7 great-grandparents of Jewish descent, and one great-grandmother a devout Christian who married a Jew, is married to a Moroccan man raised in but not nowpracticing the Muslim faith. They are expecting their first child next year. With the recent terrible events, I hold on to her story and yours as signs of hope. Thank you for this beautiful essay.
