Good morning! We’re spending the rest of this week at an editorial summit to think about how we
can keep improving your experience as Forward readers. Instead of Forwarding the News and our usual afternoon newsletter, we'll be sending out a single daily newsletter every morning. We’ll be back to our ordinary schedule next week. Questions? Email [email protected].
Learn words linked to the fast day which begins on Wednesday night, including a line from a Sholem Aleichem story in which “Tisha B’av” is used to describe a somber mood.
The Forward is a non-profit 501(c)3 so our journalism depends on support from readers like you. You can support our work today by donating or subscribing. All donations are tax-deductible to the full extent of US law.
