Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Please join essayist and opinion editor of the Forward Batya Ungar-Sargon for an open conversation about the implications of last week’s tragic attack in Pittsburgh and what it means for the American Jewish Community.
Her most recent pieces include, “What the Pittsburgh Massacre Taught Me about Jews in the age of Trump” and “Donald Trump, Meet America’s Jews. They Are Protesting Your Hate”
The discussion — “What the Pittsburgh massacre teaches us about the place of the Jewish community in 2018 America” — is part of the Richard and Lee Laster Annual Lecture Series so join us for breakfast and conversation at Temple Beth El of Northern Westchester, Sunday, November 4, from 9:15-10:30.

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
