As a staff writer for the Forward, I frequently cover stories on antisemitism in American culture. This can be a difficult job, but it’s one of vital importance to me, my community and Jews everywhere. The Forward is an independent media outlet, which gives our journalists the freedom to cover these important Jewish stories. But it also means we rely on the generosity of our readers to keep reporting on the news.
Will you power our award-winning journalism tracking the rise of antisemitism in America?

I’ve had the unpleasant job of tracking every antisemitic thing Kanye West has said, as well as analyzing the forces that fed his hatred. I’ve covered the ways video games breed antisemitism and how white supremacists create coded hate speech that can fly under the radar. While I certainly prefer the stories diving into Jewish culture and exploring artistic and religious innovations, history has taught us that it’s essential to confront antisemitic hate speech. I’m proud to do my part as a staff writer at the Forward.
The Forward gives its reporters the time, space and resources to follow the most important stories to the Jewish community. Now, I’m relying on you to power the Forward — and make my reporting possible (along with the incredible reporting of my colleagues!).
With your support, we can continue covering the stories most important to you, including antisemitic hate speech and its very real consequences. |
