This event is for Forward members only.
Three Forward journalists — Opinion Editor Talya Zax, Senior Contributor Rob Eshman and Contributor Emily Tamkin — will share how they’ve approached op-ed writing at this most urgent of moments, shaped by war, rising antisemitism and a high-stakes election. Along with curating insightful analysis on critical topics, Talya and her contributors aim to make reading the Forward Opinion section to feel like talking to a set of your most interesting, surprising friends: exciting, challenging, emotionally powerful, occasionally comforting, sometimes even funny.
