Outside of Jewish media, the relative erasure of the fact that Oppenheimer and Strauss were Jewish and why this mattered in the early 1940s (FFS) is seriously disturbing.

And yes, this does include the fact that neither of the actors playing Oppenheimer or Strauss are Jewish.

Here's an interesting interview from JTA News:

I've done some searches and I'm surprised that I can't seem to locate much of a developed literature on the as a creature/symbol/figure of Jewish resistance.

Suggestions are welcome! (scholarly papers preferred)

Wow. The movie has an Asian Jewish character played by an Asian Jewish (patri) actor.

As a parent of an Asian Jewish (patri) kid, it's hard to put into words what this kind of representation means.

"Campaigners say the regulation – which applies to anyone of Czech parentage born between October 1949 and May 1969 – has had the unintended effect of barring citizenship rights for potentially thousands of children and grandchildren of young Jewish refugees who escaped Czechoslovakia thanks to the efforts of the British humanitarian aid worker Sir Nicholas Winton and other noted volunteers, including Doreen Warriner and Trevor Chadwick.

Between March and August 1939, eight trains evacuated a total of 669 mainly Jewish children from Prague to London, until the outbreak of war stopped the transports." theguardian.com/world/2023/feb

"The find, announced on Tuesday, makes the 14th-century building one of a precious handful of medieval synagogues to have survived the aftermath of the expulsion of Spain’s Jews in 1492. References to the lost temple go back more than 400 years. In his 1604 history of Utrera, Rodrigo Caro, a local priest, historian and poet, described an area of the city centre as it had been in earlier centuries, writing: “In that place, there were only foreign and Jewish people … who had their synagogue where the Hospital de la Misericordia now stands.”" theguardian.com/world/2023/feb

Judaism places a great emphasis on passing our traditions and identities on to the next generation. But is there a uniquely Jewish approach to parenting? And if so, how is it different than simply being a good parent? momentmag.com/symposium-is-the
