The Forward is excited to partner with Temple Ner Tamid of Bloomfield, NJ.
Mohammad Darawshe is a citizen of Israel whose family has lived in the town of Iksal, just outside of Nazareth, for 27 generations. Since he is an Arab with an Israeli passport, like 20 percent of Israel’s population, he has described himself as a “child of both identities.” Mohammad has distinguished himself as a leader amongst Israeli Arabs, a news analyst for Arabs about Israeli political and social trends, and an internationally respected advocate for unexpected and hopeful ways of envisioning the Middle East’s future. Jodi Rudoren, our editor-in-chief, will interview Mohammad, focusing on his vision of Arab-Israeli relations.

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
