Moment is an independent magazine which focuses on the life of the American Jewish community. It is not tied to any particular Jewish movement or ideology.[2] The publication features investigative stories[3] and cultural criticism, highlighting the thoughts and opinions of diverse scholars, writers, artists and policymakers.[4][5][6]Moment was founded in 1975, by Nobel Prize laureate Elie Wiesel and Jewish activist Leonard Fein,[7] who served as the magazine's first editor from 1975 to 1987. In its premier issue, Fein wrote that the magazine would include diverse opinions "of no single ideological position, save of course, for a commitment to Jewish life."[8]Hershel Shanks served as the editor from 1987 to 2004.[9] In 2004, Nadine Epstein took over as editor and executive publisher of Moment.[10][11]
The magazine was named in honor of an independent Yiddish-language newspaper, entitled Der Moment.[12][13][14] Founded in Warsaw in 1910, Der Moment remained in operation until the eve of Yom Kippur 1939, when the building housing the newspaper was destroyed by a German bomb. At the time, the publication was one of two Yiddish-language newspapers in the city.[1][15]
Moment magazine is an independent journal that publishes articles on Jewish culture, politics, and religion.[12] Its editorial staff, writers, and articles represent a diverse range of political views.[1][13]Moment publishes a print magazine once every other month, maintains a website,[16] runs literary contests, and hosts events. The magazine is a publishing project of the Washington D.C.–based Center for Creative Change.
In 2018, Moment launched an Anti-Semitism Monitor[27] to select, catalog and report credible anti-Semitic incidents around the world on a weekly basis.[28] Developed and curated by Ira Forman, a Moment Institute Fellow and the former U.S. Special Envoy of the Office to Monitor and Combat Anti-Semitism,[29]Moment’s Anti-Semitism Monitor is a way for experts and others to track anti-Semitic incidents by date and country as well as the reactions to those incidents.[30]
Daniel Pearl Investigative Journalism Initiative
In 2010, Moment launched the Daniel Pearl Investigative Journalism Initiative (DPIJI), which gives grants to young journalists doing stories on modern anti-Semitism and other forms of prejudice. The DPIJI is in memory of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter, who was murdered by terrorists while on assignment in Pakistan in 2002. The winners of this contest are mentored by prestigious journalists including: Wolf Blitzer, Linda Feldmann, Martin Fletcher, Glenn Frankel, Bill Kovach, David Lauter, Charles Lewis, Clarence Page, Robert Siegel, Paul Steiger and Lynn Sweet. Fellows have included: Jacob Kushner whose story "Birthright Denied" explored the Dominican Republic's efforts to take away citizenship from tens of thousands of Haitians who were born in the country;[31] Eve Fairbanks, whose story "A House Divided" tells the story of the integration and subsequent re-segregation of the dorms at the University of the Free State in Bloemfontein; Emily K. Alhadeff, whose story "An Olympian Struggle," explores the complex story of anti-Israel campaigns in Olympia, Washington;[32] Cameron Conaway, whose story "Shadows in the Golden Land" tells the story of the failure of the newly-democratic Myanmar to end the persecution of the country's Muslim minority;[33] May Jeong, whose story "Strangers in Their Own Land" covered the Buddhist Nationalist attacks on Muslim neighbors in Sri Lanka;[34] Taha Anis, whose article "Persecuted in Pakistan" explored the discrimination and arrests of the Ahmadiyya sect of Islam in Pakistan.[35]
