(EDITOR NOTE - This episode was filmed on 01/05/25)


As a natural follow-up to the conversation with Black Jews, Boaz Hepner and Nate Looney gathered 14 Jews of color from a variety of different backgrounds, and had a conversation about their lived experiences. Not everyone labeled themselves the same way, and not everyone even wants to be labeled. A great conversation, showing just how eclectic and diverse the Jewish community actually is.


When asked to provide a label, this is how each guest self-identified:

Amy Albertson \"Chinese-American Jew\" 

Lani Anpo \"Native American Jew or Indijewness\"

BournRich - \"A Jew living the African American experience\"

Emily Bowen Cohen - \"Muscogee-Jewish\"

Jenny Cohen - \"Mexican Jew\"

Abraham Hamra - \"Syrian Jew\"

Eliana Jolkovsky - \"Korean-American Jew\"

Mari Katz O'Leary - \"Hispanic Jew\"

Iola Kostrzewski - \"Black Sephardic Jew\"

Aimee Lacaden - \"Pacific Islander, European, Jewish\"

Matthew Nouriel - \"Iranian Jew\"

Tabby Refael - Iranian American Jew\"

Raymond Roker - \"Bahamian-American & Ashkenazi\"

Elizabeth Younger - \"Choctaw Native American Jew\"
