Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
For the fifth year the First Family hosted a White House Seder. Sticking to tradition, brisket, kugel and matzo ball soup were served and the guest list included friends and colleagues of the President. But there was one new thing at the table: a Seder plate from Israel’s first lady. Check out the pictures below.

Why I became the Forward’s editor-in-chief
You are surely a friend of the Forward if you’re reading this. And so it’s with excitement and awe — of all that the Forward is, was, and will be — that I introduce myself to you as the Forward’s newest editor-in-chief.
And what a time to step into the leadership of this storied Jewish institution! For 129 years, the Forward has shaped and told the American Jewish story. I’m stepping in at an intense time for Jews the world over. We urgently need the Forward’s courageous, unflinching journalism — not only as a source of reliable information, but to provide inspiration, healing and hope.
