Sarah Glidden on the J14

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
When Haaretz wanted graphic artists to illustrate Israel’s J14 tent protests from the summer they called upon a number of Israel’s finest artists and also upon Sarah Glidden, author of “How To Understand Israel in 60 Days or Less.”
At the Haaretz site Glidden’s comic has Hebrew dialogue, but here all four pages are reproduced in the original English.

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.
