Why Is Race So Hard to Talk About?

By Forward Staff August 26, 2013

In the latest episode of The Salon on The Jewish Salon, panelists gathered to discuss race, and exactly why it’s so hard to talk about it. This time, host Jane Eisner and co-host Rachel Sklar were joined by Chava Shervington, President of the Jewish Multiracial Network; Dr. Ruth Pinkenson Feldman, aka “The Green Bubbie”; and Limor Suss, lifestyle expert at TrendsGirl.com and Dealery.com.

A message from our Publisher & CEO Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.
