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.
It’s our birthday and we’re still celebrating!
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 week we celebrate 129 years of the Forward. We’re proud of our origins as a Yiddish print publication serving Jewish immigrants. And we’re just as proud of what we’ve become today: A trusted source of Jewish news and opinion, available digitally to anyone in the world without paywalls or subscriptions.
We’ve helped five generations of American Jews make sense of the news and the world around them — and we aren’t slowing down any time soon.
As a nonprofit newsroom, reader donations make it possible for us to do this work. Support independent, agenda-free Jewish journalism and our board will match your gift in honor of our birthday!
