The Commencement Address I Was Supposed to Give at Georgetown Law by Morton Schapiro "Georgetown asked for my talk in advance, and I was about to send it to them on the day I discussed the petition with the dean. It draws on several of my JJ columns about humility, gratitude, and, ironically, the urgent need for dialogue in our polarized society." jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

As we commemorate International Holocaust Remembrance Day, it’s worth remembering not only how Jews died but also how Jews responded: not by wallowing in victimhood but by building and thriving. jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

Imagine the outcry if a group of Jewish public schoolteachers would announce a “Zionist teach-in” for MLK Day. Would Mayor Mamdani allow such a disruption of a national holiday? jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

Given the state we’re in, MLK's legacy has never been more essential. I can’t think of a better way to honor his legacy on MLK Day than to remember how he tried to bring our country together through the shared ideals expressed at our founding. jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

The butchers of Tehran love their own freedom to be butchers. What they can’t stomach is to give their people the same freedom to be human. jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

COVER STORY: Soon we will know whether Iran’s newest uprising becomes another chapter in a long pattern, or the moment the pattern breaks. For one thing is already clear: this time, fewer people are asking for reform and more are asking for an ending. jewishjournal.com/cover_story/38…

In recognition of National Bagel Day, @TheDEBMethod interviewed Sam Silverman (@bagelambassador) of BagelUp and BagelFest 🥯 jewishjournal.com/culture/food/3…

State Senator Scott Wiener accuses Israel of ‘Genocide’ and throws Palestinians under the bus jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

Even if we give Wiener the benefit of the doubt that he didn’t do this for political reasons and really means it, at least he could have done his homework. jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

When ideology becomes reflex, people disappear. Kathleen Hayes on Venezuela, Iran, and a left that no longer listens to those living under repression. jewishjournal.com/cover_story/38…

Had the media delved more deeply into CBS editor-in-chief Bari Weiss’s editorial input, readers today would be feasting on journalism rather than sketchy optics. jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

"Why are moderate Muslims so silent—both in Europe and America? Don’t they have an interest in reclaiming their religion from extremists?" @JewishJournal #BondiBeachTerrorAttack #ChristmasMarket jewishjournal.com/commentary/opi…

This week, American Jewry lost Norman Podhoretz—a street kid with a sharp mind. Fierce in defense of Jews, Israel, and America. As we light the final candle on the longest night of the year, the message is simple: Jewish identity will not fade quietly.🕎 jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

Antizionists Aren’t Just Hurting Jews– They’re Hurting Palestinians jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

Schmoozing with David Ellison: “We Want to Regain America’s Trust” On a night hosted by a center that makes sure the world never forgets the lessons of the Holocaust, that one line—I chose life—pierced through every grateful heart in the A-list room. jewishjournal.com/commentary/col…

The Islamic Republic of Great Britain 🇬🇧🇸🇦? Not quite. I’m optimistic despite everything… jewishjournal.com/commentary/col… #manchester #antisemitism

American leaders have long had an affinity for that first of the Five Books of Moses. My latest in the @JewishJournal jewishjournal.com/judaism/384485…
