In Episode 5, we cover antisemitism. We talk about DeSean Jackson posting a quote attributed to Hitler as well as other antisemitic incidents and what they mean. We look at the history of black and Jewish people working alongside each other and the damaging misinformation surrounding the topic. Also, we reflect on the importance of knowing details about your ancestry, the branches of Judaism in America, and more.
