Universal Jewish Preschool
Why does Jewish preschool cost so much? In the new episode of The Jewish Channel series “The Salon,” panelist Jordana Horn of the parenting website Kveller argues that philanthropists should invest in Jewish preschool — “Birthright closer to birth” — and Rabbi Robyn Fryer Bodzin makes the case for paying early childhood teachers well.
The panelists also chat about the two different feminist strategies presented by Purim heroines Esther and Vashti.

The Salon is moderated by Jane Eisner, the Forward’s editor, and Rachel Sklar of Change the Ratio.
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.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
