grateful to report on this big beautiful basketball tournament in Oaxaca’s Sierra Juárez mountains for @atlasobscura, and to talk with so many Serranos about their love of hoops 🙏🏼

"In creating a modern nation which was not before a comprehensive national identity, Israel not only erased our right as Palestinians to the land, but also the richness of Jewish communities in Arab countries." forward.com/food/629100/fadi…

This is a shonda. Democracies do not suppress journalism. Full stop. Israel must reverse this unconscionable crackdown on independent reporting. haaretz.com/israel-news/2024…

Wow — this suspension is pegged to holding "an unauthorized event Thursday afternoon that proceeded despite warnings and included threatening rhetoric and intimidation."

Big NYPD presence on Flatbush Avenue and Empire Boulevard right now.

"We cannot get caught up in petty b——– right now," @ArielleLAngel told me two days after she described a crisis on the left. "There’s an imminent genocide.”

Vivian Silver devoted her life to fighting for Israeli-Palestinian peace. This is a beautiful profile by @SamLinSommer of her work, and the days since she has been feared abducted by Hamas. With a kicker quote from my incredible mom: "Bring my friend home" bit.ly/46tQHi2

Love @AndiBerlin's LI pupusas list. More Long Islanders were born in El Salvador than in any other country besides the US. Only right that the Salvadoran national dish is, as @Erica_Marcus said on FB, up there with pizza and bagels in LI's pantheon.

Thrilled about this announcement-humbled to be the first Black editor to lead food coverage at a major Richmond outlet. Virginia has much to add to the culinary conversation, and to paraphrase the illustrious Andre 3000, “we got something to say.” vpm.org/2023-10-02/debra-fre…

As a practicing Orthodox Jew, I feel it important to note — today and every day — how critical it is to, collectively, be respectful of all denominations of Judaism, all religions or secularism.
We are one people!

I adapted these fish-shaped jujube cookies from Hong Kong Cookery for a Chinese Rosh Hashanah, or a Jewish Moon Festival, or both.
