The Forward

The Forward (or Forverts, in transliterated Yiddish) is a long running American Jewish publication. It is published in Yiddish and English. English content was in some years published as a section of the larger Yiddish newspaper, and in some years was published as a separate edition. (There is a Wikipedia article about this serial.)

Publication History

Forverts began in 1897. A distinct English edition began around 1990, and was for a time titled the Jewish Daily Forward. It is now known simply as The Forward. No issue or contribution copyright renewals were found for this serial. Since 2019 The Forward has been issued exclusively online.
