Today on Tablet
April 28, 2011
Dvora Meyers makes the case today in Tablet Magazine that Jews should be unembarrassed in claiming Amy Winehouse as one of their own. Indeed, Meyers argues, her act, mess and all, are the product of a strong Jewish upbringing and a huge debt to another musical shande, Phil Spector. Besides, there’s hope for her yet—no, no, no?
