Ever since our Naomi Zeveloff moved to Israel in August to be a full-time Forward correspondent, we have been looking for the right person to take over one of her important duties: editing The Sisterhood blog.
I’m happy to announce that we have found that person in Sarah Breger.
Sarah is a skilled journalist — she’s the managing editor of Moment magazine — with a deep professional interest in the lives of and challenges facing Jewish women today. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and the Columbia School of Journalism, Sarah has written on issues of religious divorce, reinventing ritual and Jewish women in popular culture.
Just in the last few weeks, you can see Sarah’s personality emerge, as The Sisterhood has jumped on all sorts of news, ranging from a quick, poignant response to the Har Nof murders in Jerusalem to the tough issues of campus rape and the sexualization of young girls.
Feel free to join The Sisterhood’s unique and essential conversation by contacting Sarah at [email protected]
This is a moment of great uncertainty. Here’s what you can do about it.
We hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, we’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s independent Jewish news this Passover. All donations are being matched by the Forward Board - up to $100,000.
This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
Support our mission to tell the Jewish story fully and fairly.
