Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Hundreds of motorcyclists plan on celebrating Israel’s 60th anniversary this spring by riding across the Holy Land, traveling to Eilat in the south from Metula in the north. The cross-country trek is the brainchild of the Israeli motorbike federation, which invited riders from sister federations in the United States, Canada and Australia. Some 700 bikers are expected to participate.
"Why I became the Forward’s Editor-in-Chief"
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
