Alan Gross Plot Thickens; Hasidic-Inspired Fashion
In this week’s podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis talks with Forward staff writer Paul Berger and opinion editor Gal Beckerman about new revelations concerning Alan Gross, a Jewish American aid worker who is serving a 15-year prison sentence in Cuba. Then, Forward fellow Naomi Zeveloff stops by to discuss an about-face for the hawkish Israel advocacy group, The David Project. Finally, Renee Ghert-Zand calls in to discuss why the Dutchess of Cambridge is wearing a Hasidic boy’s coat.
