Please join essayist and opinion editor of the Forward Batya Ungar-Sargon for an open conversation about the implications of last week’s tragic attack in Pittsburgh and what it means for the American Jewish Community.

Her most recent pieces include, “What the Pittsburgh Massacre Taught Me about Jews in the age of Trump” and “Donald Trump, Meet America’s Jews. They Are Protesting Your Hate”

The discussion — “What the Pittsburgh massacre teaches us about the place of the Jewish community in 2018 America” — is part of the Richard and Lee Laster Annual Lecture Series so join us for breakfast and conversation at Temple Beth El of Northern Westchester, Sunday, November 4, from 9:15-10:30.

A message from our CEO & publisher Rachel Fishman Feddersen

I hope you appreciated this article. Before you go, I’d like to ask you to please support the Forward’s award-winning, nonprofit journalism during this critical time.

The coming year promises to be filled with more complex and historic developments. We are entering an era where independent, fact-based Jewish journalism will be more important than ever. We need to be ready for whatever 2025 will bring, and with your help, we can be.

We’ve set a goal to raise $260,000 by December 31. That’s an ambitious goal, but one that will give us the resources we need to invest in the high quality news, opinion, analysis and cultural coverage that isn’t available anywhere else.

If you feel inspired to make an impact, now is the time to give something back. Join us as a member at your most generous level.
