Ladino and Yiddish – Those Tools of Modernity (corrections)
The September 17 book review “Ladino and Yiddish — Those Tools of Modernity” incorrectly listed the price of Sarah Abrevaya Stein’s book, “Making Jews Modern: The Yiddish and Ladino Press in the Russian and Ottoman Empire.” The book, from Indiana University Press, costs $35.
A September 17 article, “The Latest Round of Jewwear,” misspelled the name of the city of Tucson, Ariz.
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
