In this week’s Reporters Roundtable podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis is joined by Forward reporter Nathan Guttman to discuss Israel’s relationship with guns and if it could serve as a model for the US. Then, Deputy Culture Editor Naomi Zeveloff stops by to discuss why a recent study comparing Palestinian and Israeli textbooks is so controversial.

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.
