 Dear Reader,
America is in the midst of a serious racial reckoning, and American journalism is no exception. As a specifically Jewish American publication, the Forward continues to cover the intersection of Judaism and race in America, including in our publication’s own history.
In the past year, the Forward has published more news, features, and opinion articles by and about Jews of Color than ever before. We’ve gone deep in our coverage into both the difficult and joyous conversations about race in the Jewish community. We’ve added Jews of Color as staff and contributing writers and to the Forward’s governing association. We adopted a Statement of Intent to ensure that each piece we publish is edited with an eye for racial equity, and facilitated live events and discussions that amplify the voices of communities of color. But we can – and must – go even further, and we need your support to make it happen. We’re committed to ensuring that our organization, and especially our coverage, reflects our multiracial and multicultural Jewish communities. When you give to the Forward, you’re not just powering the legacy of more than a century of American Jewish journalism — you’re investing in a future Jewish journalism that’s grounded in anti-racist values. Donate today to show your support for Jewish journalism that strives toward equity.
In solidarity and in action, Robin  Robin Washington Editor-At-Large The Forward |
