Candle-lighting time sidewalk chalk art, as seen today in Squirrel Hill, plus a No Place For Hate window sign.  (Someone does the chalk art every week, although so far as I recall this is the first time there has also been text, and Tim Hindes’s Star-of-David variant on the steel logo is new this week.)

A moving vigil in the Plaza. So much love filled that space. #strongerthanhate #pittsburghstrong #squirrelhillstrong #treeoflifesynagogue #hatehasnohomehere #love #vigil (at Plaza Park) https://www.instagram.com/p/BplQ7jsnErq/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1v1j1kpx5msbs

Today a mass shooting took place at Tree of Life synagogue in Pittsburgh. Today 11 lives were taken in a senseless, hate-fueled tragedy. No words except please send love to our city, and to the families who suffered an insurmountable loss today. If you want to help beyond your prayers, thoughts, and energy, you can donate via the official GoFundMe campaign. . You might have seen the coverage on the news...the synagogue is only 3 miles from my home. The first responders and law enforcement and local government handled everything swiftly. But if you know anything about Pittsburgh, you know we are proud of our diverse neighborhoods, the convergence of ethnicities here, champion sports teams, incredible work ethic, and our ability to get up ten times...always. Hate will never conquer love. 💜 . . . #pittsburgh #pittsburghstrong #treeoflifepittsburgh #squirrelhillstrong #cityofchampions #yinzer #ilovemycity #lovewins #pittsburghbeautiful #pittsburghblogger (at Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bpdfj8CnOx_/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=4gujwwct1cfj
