The Constitutional Case for Jewish Charter Schools by Andrew Lovseth

Jewish charter schools (JCSs) — publicly funded but independently operated K–12 schools teaching Jewish and secular subjects — would address many of the American Jewish community’s most vexing problems. JCSs avoid the “tuition crisis” that has put Jewish day schools out of reach for middle-class Jews and forced schools to rely on massive donations. They provide an alternative to […]

For America’s Jews, Past Is Prologue by Andrew Lovseth

The Atlantic proclaims “The Golden Age of American Jews Is Ending.” Campus walls are graffitied with calls for “Death to Zionists.” A synagogue gets an email with the message, “Praise Allah! Praise Hamas! Death to Israel! Burn the Jews!” When a Jewish reporter, writing for Columbia University’s Daily Spectator, covered an assault on an Israeli […]

Show Up to Synagogue by Andrew Lovseth

The Torah’s tale of Moses’s heroism is a rather unlikely one. Saved at birth from certain death at the hands of Pharaoh’s executioners, he comes to maturity in the house of Pharaoh himself, raised in worldly privilege as a prince of Egypt only to escape once again to the wilderness after killing an Egyptian slave-master. […]

My Liberal Faith by Andrew Lovseth

When I was 18 and a second-year student at the University of Chicago, I enrolled in a seminar on the Book of Genesis taught by the bioethicist Leon Kass. The class changed my life. Never had I been in the company of smarter peers, a more interesting text, or a wiser teacher. I discovered, after […]

The God Who Dwells in Doubt by Andrew Lovseth

The most profound experience I have had of God occurred when I was a devout atheist. At 17, I took a cross-country Trailways bus to work at a Jewish summer camp in California. Although not hostile to Judaism itself, I had spent my teen years reading Bertrand Russell, the marvelously witty logician who wrote convincing […]

Wary Jewish Democrats see flashback to Obama in dissection of Harris’ views on Israel by Gabby Deutch

CHICAGO — Hours before Democrats gaveled in the start of the Democratic National Convention at the United Center, Jewish Democratic activists gathered elsewhere in Chicago — at a location kept private due to security concerns — for a discussion about what the election means for Israel.  Liz Schrayer, president and CEO of the U.S. Global Leadership Coalition,… Read More
