Take a break from the city: Penny and Claudio Pincus and Sam Norich are inviting Forward readers to Brunch in the Berkshires.

Brunch, at the Pincus home, will be Sunday, July 29 at 11 a.m. Forward Editor-in-Chief Jane Eisner will be the featured speaker, sharing her discussion on “Being a Jew in Trump’s America.”

“The election of Donald Trump exaggerated every fault line in American society — and in Jewish life,” she said. “Jews can no longer think of themselves as a safe, secure model minority. But this is also a moment alive with opportunity, a chance to make bold new choices.

If you’re able to attend, please RSVP to Roberta Caplan for further details on the festivities: call (212) 453-9446 or email caplan@forward.com.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.

If you feel inspired to make an impact, now is the time to give something back. Join us as a member at your most generous level.
