Reporters’ Roundtable: On the Ground in Egypt; A Threat to Abortion Rights?
In this week Forward Reporters’ Roundtable, host Josh Nathan-Kazis speaks with Forward contributor Eric Trager about the implications of the current uprising in Cairo. Trager was, until recently, doing research in the Egyptian capital. Josh also speaks with Sisterhood blog contributor Sarah Seltzer about new legislative threats to abortion rights and access. At the end of the podcast is a short interview with “Emily,” a graduate student who remains in Cairo, and who, for security reasons, did not want her last name used.

Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
