Jewcy’s Return

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
Jewcy, the online magazine appealing to young Jews, relaunched today with a nice-looking website and some fresh content.
The nonprofit cousin of JDub records maintains its robust music and books coverage, but has added sections for news, food, social justice and family and features an events calendar, which is certainly needed in the Jewish webiverse.
Some noteworthy posts:
• Judd Apatow’s public service announcement for American Jewish World Service featuring known non-Jews Lindsey Lohan, Tracy Morgan and Sir Patrick Stewart and a few Jews like Jerry Seinfeld and Sarah Silverman.
• A JDate with Jon Stewart. Or his avatar. For that Washington thing he did. It’s so Monday already.
• An interview with Will Schneider, the director of pioneering Jewish philanthropy, Slingshot.
Welcome back, Jewcy.
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.
