Extremely good essay by

And the fault is not in making the mistake and using the 'wrong' words. We all make mistakes. We all sometimes say less (or more) than we mean. No. The question-and any potential fault-is in what we do afterward.

Look, I understand its horrible and hurtful to be accused of racism. But those first emails were NOT accusations. It was an objection to an offensive word Zvi thought you’d used accidentally. If her letter seemed angry and offensive to you, well - she was angry and offended. Rightfully so. Just because the offense was accidental does not mean people don’t have the right to be offended.
