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.
Hello, fellow Forward reader! I’m Joel Brown, a Forward reader and supporter for more than 15 years, and currently the chair of the board of directors.
I’m an avid Forward reader because it ticks so many of my essential boxes: excellent journalism, Jewish focus and diverse viewpoints. In today’s political climate, what I most appreciate is the Forward’s independence — made possible by the generosity of its membership.
The Forward is committed to bringing you unbiased, nuanced Jewish news. From my position as board chair, I see an exciting future as we expand our position as the definitive independent voice of contemporary American Judaism.
— Joel Brown, Forward board chair
