Just Ignore Them
Since my granddaughter attends the University of California, Santa Cruz, I have been following and supporting the efforts of Tammi Rossman-Benjamin, including her recent Forward op-ed on February 17 (“Why I Filed Title VI Complaint”). Lately I have come to the conclusion that the best course of action would be to ignore the whole issue. It seems that Rossman-Benjamin’s actions only give the anti-Israel and anti-Semitic lecturers free publicity. In fact, she has brought those people national attention which they didn’t have before. Nobody, would have known of their existence, if she and her organization would not have publicized it.

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.
