There something about December 31st that invokes reflection. What was the year all about? What significant events occurred? What were the best films, CDs, books? Who of importance passed away? It’s a natural time for creating lists, and we’ve collected some different “Top Tens” that cover the spectrum from trivial (but fun!) gossip to more serious in-depth essays. Happy reading!
- Jews in pop culture: The Jerusalem Post’s gossip column on the top ten stories of 2010
- The Simon Wiesenthal Center releases its Top Ten Anti-Semitic Slurs, which reveals a frighteningly broad range of sources
- On the female side, Top 10 Moments for Jewish Women
- Not strictly a top ten, but JTA’s The Eulogizer on notable Jews who passed this year
- And finally, this one not strictly Jewish – apart from the author that is – David Brooks releases his “Sidney Awards” for best magazine essays of the year
