(JTA) — Former first lady Michelle Obama will speak at the Temple Emanu-El Streicker Center in New York this fall.
The event, set for October 25, is billed as “An Evening with Former First Lady Michelle Obama.” No topic for her talk has been announced.
Obama advocated for healthy eating and reversing childhood obesity with her “Let’s Move” program, and for empowering girls. She also showed her support for military families during her time in office.
The Streicker Center offers cultural activities and provides an environment for Jewish study for people from all walks of Jewish life.
Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
