See ‘RBG’ The Movie – Plus Jane Eisner In Conversation With The Directors
Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
On May 1, come to the Marlene Meyerson JCC in Manhattan to see “RBG” before it arrives in the theaters.
After the screening, Forward editor-in-chief Jane Eisner will interview the directors Julie Cohen and Betsy West. They will discuss the making of the film and how a Jewish lawyer ended up revolutionizing gender imbalance in America and becoming an internet icon in the process.
For Friends of the Forward there will be a pre-screening reception and a chance to meet some of the people behind the movie.

I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over.
