It’s time to speak candidly — and listen openly — about Israel.
Join Forward Opinion Editor Batya Ungar-Sargon in Part 1 of “Across the Divide,” a series designed to discuss Israel from a political, denominational and generational view. On the panel, 7 p.m. Nov. 15 at the Streicker Center at Temple Emanu-El in Manhattan, she’ll weigh in on the past, present and future of Israel engagement.
Click here for a livestream of the event.
Batya will be joined by two other other young, influential voices: Yair Rosenberg, senior writer at Tablet Magazine, and Bari Weiss, op-ed writer and editor at the New York Times.

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward.
Now more than ever, American Jews need independent news they can trust, with reporting driven by truth, not ideology. We serve you, not any ideological agenda.
At a time when other newsrooms are closing or cutting back, the Forward has removed its paywall and invested additional resources to report on the ground from Israel and around the U.S. on the impact of the war, rising antisemitism and polarized discourse.
This is a great time to support independent Jewish journalism you rely on. Make a gift today!
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
