GUEST COLUMN: Standing in the tragic gap

By Nadine Herman · Tuesday, Nov. 15,2016 3:05 p.m.

I was born in a bubble. As an upper-middle class, white heterosexual woman from the San Francisco Bay Area I inherently believed that America was good, diverse, empathetic and generous. I knew of injustice in the world, of course, but America was a place of progression. We would never allow ourselves to move backwards.  Attending college in the Midwest began to corrode that idealistic view.   I couldn’t conceive of a place that didn’t recycle or where being homosexual wasn’t actually OK, or where a Jewish person didn’t exist. And yet I learned those places are far more widespread than the little ecosystem of my own Northern California home.  These are the places in which some of my friends live.
