It’s time to speak candidly — and listen openly — about Israel.

Join Forward Opinion Editor Batya Ungar-Sargon in Part 1 of “Across the Divide,” a series designed to discuss Israel from a political, denominational and generational view. On the panel, 7 p.m. Nov. 15 at the Streicker Center at Temple Emanu-El in Manhattan, she’ll weigh in on the past, present and future of Israel engagement.

Batya will be joined by two other other young, influential voices: Yair Rosenberg, senior writer at Tablet Magazine, and Bari Weiss, op-ed writer and editor at the New York Times.
