This Kid Just Won the Bar Mitzvah Video Wars

Move over, Sam Horowitz. I dub thee Brody Criz, King of Bar Mitzvah videos.
The soon-to-man has created what is probably the most insane bar mitzvah invite ever by parodying Pharrell, John Legend, Lorde, “Frozen” and others who shall remain nameless — gotta keep a little mystery.
I both love and respect this kid and want to die for him a little bit at the same time. Just wait until they show this at his wedding.
Kudos to his family for playing along with this (I would be the sullen brother in blue). Whatever you do, stick around to the end. You won’t regret it.

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.
— Alyssa Katz, editor-in-chief
