Rushdie and me: A Persian tale
By
Ali Deilami
We studied the death sentence and argued with our teachers: how could it be permissible in Islam for Khomeini to order this killing?
Orly Erez Likhovski

Justin Amler

By
Joshua Hammerman

David H. Levitt

By
Larry Luxner
In Tennessee, I happily followed the King’s (Jewish) story: from his mother’s headstone and his philanthropy to the suit he wore to perform in New York
