Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Join Forward opinion editor Batya Ungar-Sargon in conversation with Gili Getz on October 15, following a performance of his one-man show, “The Forbidden Conversation.”
In his show, Getz, an Israeli-American photojournalist and actor, shares his personal reckoning with the difficult conversation surrounding Israel within the American Jewish community.
The performance, at 7 p.m. at the 14th Street Y in Manhattan, will be followed by an open discussion, led by Ungar-Sargon, about the contentious conversations had — or avoided — with family, friends and others who keep up with the news.

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
