Join journalist and author (and Micah member) Emily Tamkin to unpack recurring and significant themes and narratives in journalism about Jews (and Jewish journalism) today—from American Jews’ evolving relationship to Israel to antisemitism to electoral politics to what it means to be Jewish in America at this moment—and how the stories we write and read shape the lives we live.
Register before 5 p.m. the Sunday before for in-person lunch ($10) or by the next evening for the Zoom link.
