In this week’s podcast, host Josh Nathan-Kazis talks with Washington correspondent Nathan Guttman about how Jewish organizations are reacting to Israel’s deportation of Sudanese refugees. Then, Forward editor Jane Eisner stops by to discuss if it is Americans’ responsibility to financially support ultra-Orthodox Jews who choose to study rather than work. Then, staff writer Ezra Glinter explains why he tried to watch all of Woody Allen’s films in one weekend. Finally, Forward fellow Naomi Zeveloff joins the conversation to explain Hasidic pop-musician Lipa Schmeltzer’s new, odd video.

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.
