Never would she have imagined that this would become one of the most tumultuous years in Jewish-American history. Covering the biggest story of the past year, Judy Maltz has been at protests on college campuses and on the streets of New York, she has reported on growing incidents of antisemitism in the country, and she has observed how the issue of Israel is pitting Jews against Jews in America. In this talk, Judy Maltz shares some of her takeaways from an intensive year of writing about the repercussions of October 7 on Jewish-Americans for one of Israel's leading newspapers - as well as her reflections on what Americans don't get about Israel and vice versa.
