October 15: Manhattan: ‘The Forbidden Conversation’

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.

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

In this age of misinformation, our work is needed like never before. We report on the news that matters most to American Jews, driven by truth, not ideology.

At a time when newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall. That means for the first time in our 126-year history, Forward journalism is free to everyone, everywhere. With an ongoing war, rising antisemitism, and a flood of disinformation that may affect the upcoming election, we believe that free and open access to Jewish journalism is imperative.

Readers like you make it all possible. Right now, we’re in the middle of our Passover Pledge Drive and we need 500 people to step up and make a gift to sustain our trustworthy, independent journalism.

Make a gift of any size and become a Forward member today. You’ll support our mission to tell the American Jewish story fully and fairly. 

— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
