Forum (Reader Replies)

The Forum is our letters column, responses from readers to articles and videos we've published. Each letter is limited to 300 words. If you have something to say not related to an article, perhaps you'd consider submitting it as a Opinion/Viewpoint piece?

Because of space constraints we cannot print everything we get and we sometimes have to trim for length or edit for context. Street addresses are omitted to maintain the author’s privacy; those wishing to correspond directly with authors may send letters to Friends Journal to be forwarded.

Web comments left on individual articles in the web edition are automatically considered for our Forum. This is the most immediate way to make sure that your feedback gets seen.
