It’s Official: Becca Kufrin and Thomas Jacobs Are Engaged

Cue the wedding bells! Becca Kufrin of Bachelor Nation is engaged to Thomas Jacobs. The Bachelorette alumnus announced the wonderful moments on May 29 and disclosed, in an unexpected move, that she had proposed. The television personality wrote on Instagram that she was the one who popped the question instead of Jacobs—a twist you’d only expect on BetAmo . Kufrin stated that their engagement has been pretty low-key—they announced the news only to their loved ones for a while. However, they were finally ready to share their excitement with their fan base. In addition to the wonderful news, Kufrin uploaded photos of herself and her fiancé. The couple were embracing and drinking champagne as he flaunted his silver band. Jacobs headed to his Instagram account to inform

Why the box office hit 'Black Panther' might also be a milestone in black-Jewish relations

( JTA ) — If you have checked in on the pop culture zeitgeist at all in the past week, you know that the film “Black Panther” is breaking box office records and Hollywood assumptions about race . The well-received Marvel flick was written and directed by African-Americans (co-written by Ryan Coogler and Joe Robert Cole, and directed by Coogler) and it features a mostly African-American cast, anchored by Chadwick Boseman in the title role as a black superhero. But some fans might not realize that the original Black Panther character was actually created by two white Jews. The superhero was the brainchild of writer Stan Lee (born Stanley Lieber) and artist Jack Kirby (born Jacob Kurtzberg), who were already veterans of the comic book industry when they started working together at Marvel at t

There Was A Second Jewish Family in the Costa Rica Plane Crash

Costa Rican investigators are looking into what caused a charter aircraft to crash in woods in the country’s northwest soon after takeoff, killing two crewmembers and 10 U.S. citizens, including Jewish families from New York and Florida. The families from Scarsdale, N.Y., and Belleair, Florida, accounted for nine of the dead, and were part of a tour organized by Berkeley, California-based Backroads. Their American guide was the 10th U.S. victim. Costa Rican officials had said they were still seeking to establish the names of the Americans who died when the Nature Air plane went down at midday Sunday in Guanacaste. But back at home, stunned family and friends began to confirm the victims’ identities. In St. Petersburg, Florida, Rabbi Jacob Luski of Congregation B’nai Israel said Monday that

Jews fleeing Hurricane Irma are taking refuge in Atlanta’s synagogues

Volunteers in Atlanta’s Orthodox Jewish community coordinate homes for evacuees from Hurricane Irma, which is set to hit Florida this weekend. (Courtesy of Adam Starr) (JTA) — Rabbi Adam Starr was returning from an emergency trip to Houston, where he had helped a colleague clean up his synagogue after Harvey swept through that city, when his phone began to buzz. Jews from Florida had begun contacting Starr’s Atlanta synagogue, looking for a safe haven from Hurricane Irma. So on Tuesday, right after Starr got back from pulling out drywall and moving holy books in Texas, he began organizing his own relief effort back home. By Thursday night, he and a team of local volunteers were sitting around folding tables in Beth Jacob, a suburban Atlanta Orthodox synagogue, each working on laptops to co

Brandeis University Gets Largest Donation Ever From Jewish Couple

Brandeis University has received a $50 million gift — the largest single donation in the suburban Boston school’s 69-year history — to provide financial aid annually for hundreds of students. The gift from the estate of Rosaline and Marcia Cohn announced Tuesday by the university will establish the Jacob and Rosaline Cohn Endowed Scholarship and Fellowship Fund, providing assistance to undergraduate and graduate students. Rosaline and Jacob Cohn, and their daughter Marcia, did not hold any formal connection to the university, but the family had given to Brandeis for decades, beginning with a $100 gift in 1956 from Rosaline and Jacob. “Like many generous philanthropic families,” Brandeis President Ron Liebowitz said, “the Cohns were inspired by the very idea of Brandeis, a university founde
