A number of weeks ago, I had a conversation with Sruli Fruchter of 18Forty, in a series called “18 Questions, 40 Israeli Thinkers.”
We posted the audio of the conversation shortly after it went live, but in response to those have requested it, are posting the video as well, split into two segments, because the full video conversation is long.
We’re grateful to 18Forty for their having granted us permission to do this.
We will post the second half of the video on Thursday,
Sruli Fruchter is a rabbinical student, writer, activist, speaker & creative living in Jerusalem, Israel.
While pursuing semikha (rabbinical ordination) at the Rabbi Isaac Elchanan Theological Seminary, Sruli is the director of operations at 18Forty — a Jewish media company exploring Jewish thought and ideas in a modern age — and is also a contributing columnist at the Forward.
Sruli studied International & Global Affairs at Yeshiva University, where he graduated Summa Cum Laude and received awards for Service to the Jewish People and Excellence in Bible Studies. In May 2022, Sruli delivered a TEDxYeshiva University talk on making work meaningful. Sruli was the 100th editor in chief of The Commentator, Yeshiva's independent student newspaper, and was a finalist for the Religion News Association's Religion Reporting Excellence.
