JEWISH. INDEPENDENT. NONPROFIT.
The latest cover for TIME Magazine features Rabbi Sharon Brous, of the Los Angeles congregation Ikar, with a cover story called “Who Gets To Be An American?” The cover is based on Norman Rockwell’s famous 1943 “Freedom of Worship” painting, from his series of paintings on the Four Freedoms outlined by President Franklin D. Roosevelt…
Time Magazine used its iconic cover space to pay tribute to Pittsburgh, where 11 people at prayer were killed in a synagogue over the weekend. Artist Edel Rodriguez chose to represent the tragedy with the Jewish symbol of a tree of life, for the Tree of Life Congregation itself but also because its roots “run…
On August 12, 1958, the photographer Art Kane positioned himself on the south side of East 126th Street and shot a photo that would become iconic.

Time magazine just released its list of the 100 “most influential people of 2017.” It will come as no surprise that Ivanka Trump, daughter of President Trump, is included, under the heading of “Pioneers.” (The Ivanka item was penned by Wendi Murdoch.) The only other Jewish woman on the list, by my count, is Janet…

The daughter and son-in-law of the president are listed in the “Pioneers” section, which also includes late-night host Samantha Bee and pro-Palestinian activist Linda Sarsour. Wendi Murdoch, producer and former wife of Rupert Murdoch,…
Last week, Time Magazine gave us a glimpse of evil with their Steve Bannon cover. This week, with their Chuck Schumer cover photo (taken by Platon), they’ve given us the opposite (aesthetically speaking). In terms of composition, the two covers are remarkably similar – two faces front and center, nothing else (aside from those hands in…
