Forward opinion editor Batya Ungar-Sargon will be a guest speaker at the Greenwich Reform Synagogue in Connecticut on Friday, January 11. Join her as she speaks about what the Pittsburgh massacre taught us about the American Jewish community and the growing divide between the Diaspora and Israel — plus the competing ways anti-Semitism is viewed in the two communities.

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
