Alana is reinventing the way the world thinks about Jewish culture with 'a new read on Jewish life,' through the pages of Tablet magazine. Whether its getting in touch with her orthodox Jewish roots - discovering the art of making gumbo gefilte fish or looking for love in Manhattan, Alana has steadily attracted readers from across the Jewish spectrum. Alana recently attended the UJC General Assembly in Washington D.C. to talk about Tablet and what it means to be Jewish in the 21st century.

When it comes to creating new, "cool", and exciting ideas from one of the oldest, vintage concepts that exists -- well, the oxymoronic nature of this phenomenon is David Abitbol's middle name. Some years ago, after sensing a growing decline and indifference to their culture and religion, David and his comrades managed to take the 5,770-year-old essence that is Judaism, re-market it and distribute their personal views in a blog, hence making them available to one and all on the Web, only to not knowingly give birth at the time to a new, divine brand of Jew-cool that has come to be known as Jewlicious (or if you read Russian,Jewlicious.ru). Too much to digest in one breath? Or, don't believe us? Have a watch.

In the wake of anti-Semitic and anti-Israel aggression which erupted at the 2001 Durban Conference Against Racism, plus an upsurge of anti-Semitic hostility on university campuses, 2009 saw Jewish student bodies and Israeli delegations turn up in droves to Durban II. Constituting 1/10 of the accredited activists at the conference and representing a plethora of academic and cultural backgrounds, their voices were joined by the likes of Alan Dershowitz, Eli Wiesel, Prof. Irwin Cotler, Anne Bayefsky, Bernard Henri Levy, Jon Voight and Father Patrick Desbois. Equipped with clown wigs, dapper suits and blogging expertese, the student caucus voiced dissent against the debacle of an international human rights forum chaired by Libya, Iran, Pakistan and Cuba- for which Ahmedinejad orated the opening speech.
