It’s been a hectic year, but Purim is a wonderful time to press pause on all the meetings and fundraising and legal settlements and just come together as a community to celebrate. As always, we want to emphasize that despite the many changes we’ve seen over the past year, TBS has emerged better than ever and remains a warm, progressive Jewish community with a newly strengthened zero-tolerance policy on sexual harassment.
This newsletter is being hosted as part of our community service program. As always the Backward is happy to partner with different communities, no matter what affiliation, denomination, or epistemological connotation. We believe in building Jewish peoplehood.
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.
