Jay Beilis gives a passionate retelling of the persecution of his grandfather, Mendel Beilis that arose due to politically incited anti-semitism in Tsarist Russia. Ultimately, justice triumphed due to the ability of Mendel to endure great hardship and a jury composed of enough good citizens who were not swayed by a prejudiced court. He traces how the events of that time have affected his family over several generations.
3:26 I'm from the same branch of the family tree as those cousins in Detroit. In our case, Dichter was changed to Dicken as it passed through Ellis Island in 1917 with my great grandparents David and Jennie Dicken (who fled Ukraine).
God bless the strength of chracter of the Jewish people who protest the genocide in Gaza and the West Bank. God bless the 2579 Catholic priests who were sentrnced to Dachua during the horrific loss of six million Jewish people. Can there be an exhibit on these strong and righteous people?
18:45 He basically said free speech is opposite to democracy! Now you know what they mean when they say "our democracy," they mean a system where only certain ideas are allowed to be discussed before voting, which is no democracy at all. Not a slip of the tongue, bc nobody else had a double take. They all basically believe in using a micro problem statistically to attack free speech.
How can future generations of Jewish people move forward and let go of the trauma of the past if they remain so emotionally connected to the concentration camps and the atrocities that happened there? Remaining so emotionally and psychologically connected seems like it would cause traumatization

You know this is very difficult with all these political scenarios going on, and with a world economy experiencing major geopolitical shifts (marriage is the last thing on a sane person's mind). That being said Im confident in our nations abilities to overcome these novelty issues all in due time.
I love how the number of hologram survivors keep going up and up every year. Back from the dead again and again. Still running this grift after all these years while israel at this very moment is committing genocide. Disgusting
Hi from NZ. My maternal grandfather Irving Mandell was part of this is 1930s NJ/NY ..he took part in many fights and in famous events where they attacked the bund HQ and such things. He then went to Europe in ww2 and fought for America against The Nazis including in The Battle Of The Bulge.
TO THIS DAY. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND THE HATRED OF A WHOOLE PEOPLE. WERE THEY ALL UNDER THE HITLER SPELL ? HOW COULD CHILDREN SUDDENLY KNOW Htred of their friends. Was it simply jealousy of Jewish success and wealth?
Considering the vast majority of the violent crime in every major metropolitan area of this country is committed by a subset of young black men, you might want to get a grip on reality and discuss some real issues affecting real people, instead of the phantasm of "white supremacy", eternal boogyman of upper middle class whites in their quest for self importance.
This was a wonderful seminar even without me having seen the film Im too sleepy to coment more at the moment so ill do so later. ( there is plenty to say and think about) Have a wonderful day
Too bad they did. This disgusting judge removed the charges of the cps workers who ignored Gabriel Fernandez abuse. “We conclude that the petitioners never had the requisite duty to control the abusers and did not have care or custody of Gabriel for purposes of Penal Code section 273a, subdivision (a). We further conclude that the petitioners were not officers within the meaning of Government Code section 6200,” wrote Justice Francis Rothschild.
I am also a Sephardi Cook from a long line of the same. I believe it's okay to play with recipes if one knows the end result will be good, ut I take exception to adding Cheddar Cheese in the mixture. Also, why is this video a split-screen? The commentator is just a spectator, & the woman who is presenting is demonstrating on a tiny half screen. This makes little sense.
