Watch here.
Every year we publish the Forward 50, a list of remarkable people who have had a particular impact on our communities. This year, we’re asking them to join our Editor-in-Chief, Jodi Rudoren, for a weekly series of Zoominars about … whatever is on their minds. The list is a mix of activists and actors, rabbis and rappers, writers and readers, leaders and legends. Each week we’ll gather a random few and see where we end up.
Watch the next conversation with Ellie Klein Goldman, executive director at Temple Shalom in Newton, MA and co-creator of RogueShul parody Twitter account; Jacob Jonas, choreographer and founder of Jacob Jonas The Company; Christa Whitney, director of the Yiddish Book Center’s Wexler Oral History Project; and Ariel Zwang, the first woman to head the Joint Distribution Committee.
A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen
I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.
We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.
If you feel inspired to make an impact, now is the time to give something back. Join us as a member at your most generous level.
— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Publisher and CEO
