This article is the second in the series “Procrastination HaYom”– a week-long series of funny videos, websites, articles, and pictures that will do nothing to help you get that A, but everything to help keep you sane during finals time.  Dear Hashem, Even though Thanksgiving is over, I still have things to thank you for.

Are Rabbis Allowed to Speak Their Minds?

By Rachel M. Cohen | Comments Off on Are Rabbis Allowed to Speak Their Minds?

The Forward’s Artist-in-Residence, Eli Valley just published a comic about a recent episode at Bnai Jeshurun, a non-denominational, liberal synagogue in New York City.

Traditions of Satire and Anti-Semitism Collide at Harvard

By New Voices Editorial Board | Comments Off on Traditions of Satire and Anti-Semitism Collide at Harvard

There is a long history of anti-Semitism at Harvard University, though it is essentially gone today. There is also a long history of subtle — and not so subtle — grandiose acts of satire at Harvard. Last Friday morning, students who live in Harvard University’s nine River Houses awoke to find that the intersection of those two […]

Battling Numbness in Israel

By Koko Jaeger | Comments Off on Battling Numbness in Israel

This article was originally posted on the personal blog of the author, which you can find here. Today I saw a pregnant woman lying in an alleyway crying, and I jogged right past her. Re-read that sentence. I jogged right past her. Yes. That’s right. Who have I become? Around 7:30 tonight, I left my apartment […]

Though it may be a bit over dramatized, the show’s central premise is definitely true: there are few places in the world that don’t have a Chabad presence. If one of […]

Zany, Heartfelt ‘Kathmandu’ Evokes the Soul of Jewish Culture in Nepal

By Gabe Weinstein | Comments Off on Zany, Heartfelt ‘Kathmandu’ Evokes the Soul of Jewish Culture in Nepal

Every Friday night thousands of backpackers, suburbanites and college students stream into Chabad Houses from Columbus to Cambodia. But before Chabad emissaries can clank their glasses of Johnnie Walker to a “gut Shabbos,” they have to learn where to find kosher meat at the local Kroger, or master the art of bartering for vegetables at […]
