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"
