On the day following a snowstorm, at a small house in Hopewell Junction, New York, a few women parked their cars. They trudged through the snow and entered the house. Some of the women wore veils covering their hair and necks, and the rest wore short haircuts and scarves. Some said, “Salam Alikum,” and others said, “Sholem Aleikhem.” Peace in Arabic means Salaam and in Hebrew means Shalom.
