half. made it to me alone 17 minutes passes material can do z. punished for getting too cozy with the ball inside his own area. the lights the glove story was completed 6 minutes in time for the all band with the head office 3 male white sick move within 2 points of leaders by and the title race is hotting up. you've been watching the news of me claire richardson thanks so much for joining us. imagine how many portions of lunch us right now in the morning climate change before you cough the story this is my place it went from just one week. to 12 can really guess. we still have time to work i'm going.

to assess. something i hear a lot is. coming even which. i am a. i'm a jewish person you do so many of the same it's not something i really keep secret . as i just say i'm a jewish goes meets many people say i'm jewish german others say i'm a german jesus. i thought it was wrong to say i'm a jew. of the month if someone says hey you're a jew sounds kind of experience when i can say it like that i don't like the way the term sounds either so mostly i say i. mean to.

you can say jew quite normally i'm a jew definitely. not a bad word i'm definitely a jew maybe i'm a jew here. do you do you jew. you jew must don't act like a jew. and he's amazing. do you mean you jews this was a country where these days but they could how many people in germany are actually personally acquainted with any young jews real people in the real life not just figures from history 50000000000. must have been playing basketball for 7 years with the francophones as of now i'm a coach that to. my copy is

a jewish club life and it's also very open to normal jews. and sports they feel free when i'm playing sport i can just let go of everything that happens during the day you know so i can i could imagine playing someplace really big in the n.b.a. cause the n.b.a. is feeling. like could my favorite team go on oklahoma city with a microphone. as i'm in the 11th grade and high school. ever since i was really little i've tried to spend as much time as i can with children so no i babysit feel. when i talk when i'm babysitting my daily routine it's like i go over to the child's house and when the parents leave i try to make sure the child feels secure and safe even though their parents are going out walking unfaded walk in is can get out of

us if the child wants to draw something then i draw with the child but at the same time i try to teach them something i might say hey you credit this really nice but said it i that way the child learns that she's not always the best and that we've both made a good showing. does that on my. you know back to text from berlin right between the rainbow shops and fetish stores. living here in this environment i have to say coming out as a clear person pretty easy. right now i'm still in school gonna fly like meeting up with my friends and i write a lot i really like writing i'm very political and i read a lot i'm part of the feminist reading group that meets every 2 weeks.

because i took music losses when i was at the shanghai school music taste but i'm more into rap music. with rap you can really let it all hang out. on the us that's something i'm good at. my job vs music because some people have a hard time feeling the beats with music but with me i want to climb that mountain and right to the top it's it. that's how it is. i was the only jew in my class actually the only one in the whole grade they'd say hitler this hitler bad and what's it like being a jew this is you would say we're going to gas you this.

kind they same to around. south korea that's where they made fun of. why they praised. the company that i know and then you hear this one sentence this one little joke and you want to jump out of your skin because for me the joke isn't little. just cause a few i cook a lot and i like trying new things for she knew include all kinds of dishes from all different cuisines. cooking is totally relaxing for me because i basically started because my father always cooked the same thing one of the 1st day she learned to cope with it on tomato sauce with chicken tomatoes also them and then at some point i was like ok this has to change i'm taking over. as a missionary does you know every jew eats the same way although there are fixed the

dietary laws he got home cash rootlets that's what it's called kosher food and you do are not allowed to mix meat with milk or examines not at all not even on the same item 10. not 100 percent religious is pointless people make myself a chicken breast and i might slap some cheese on top piece and let it melt let's assume. and what's important to me because it's the law i can understand the best is that in judaism it's forbidden to eat insects all the fruits and vegetables you eat you have to check them 1st is everything clean that's all they really know insects and i can totally understand that i don't want to eat bugs . here and also in a book that means i can't just go out some coffee but i'll drink coffee in a cafe for example sprite things like that some people would say this restricts

mine and you know you don't have to be religious to be jewish i'm jewish because my mother is jewish and because my father is jewish soul on the sauce. because my religion teacher is probably crying somewhere right now because i don't remember everything i learned in all those years i got to find out about holidays and so on i tunes of hot stupendous carries no yacht steak no way i can somehow be more jewish than. this woman mentioned you know he was born i live in munich i was also born here i'm very active in the jewish community i work with young people and i also work part time in an israeli restaurant my kind of job my enjoy waitressing because like i meet so many different kinds of people people come and most of them are trying israeli cuisine for the 1st time i asked molly 3 israeli cuisine is super diverse

and then they want to know what is kosher wives of what is kosher framed by the school is the restaurant or. as a student to judaism plays a big role in my life it's my roots it's always with me it's something i carry within myself and i wear a star of david and the history of my family it's always there with me really your religion isn't such a big part of it because i just didn't grow up religious books from ash for me the special thing about judaism is that it's both a cultural and a religious affiliation with people deal with this in very different ways some people feel they belong only in one group some of the other only religious or whatever for me it's both bibles. through. the use of the room comes from a religious genius it's know a lot more about the whole thing than we do talk on the for example i've never read

the torah and all the other things you do if you're a religious jew like you said in the march. my real hobby i would say is ballet. i do ballet i started pretty recently but i like it very much and i love swimming and that's great here with the lake. we haven't been funding them from munich we have a friend of the family who's also jewish and when he visits us we celebrate chabad and things like that and like candles that's what we try to do it more often but it doesn't always happen and by the end because part of our family is christian we also celebrate easter and christmas when not really big celebrations but well kind of. shooting to see.

this is the also known as a number but this is the orthodox synagogue with they say they're the central orthodox synagogue and for of when they visit it's really big and very old it's beautiful very high ceilings lots of decorative elements just magnificent up there still. was that's where i grew up. this is the author and then is vocalist and i know this is the place where i can really be my worries at the door in which i hold in judaism the prayers and hebrew and that really is like entering another world you mean you took you on something like meditation perhaps and because for example as theoretically celebrated by all jews throughout the world i feel the strong connection. and the constant battle on

there's this powerful feeling of togetherness because everyone's out well in theory says the same prayer in the same language in hebrew to seanad on the sad that feelings and fears beyond words on this is only those. 2 2. javert especially the few of us the song to me the best feeling of the whole week is on saturday on ship babs i know my phone is off all my devices are off and i can't watch netflix or any other series so i can really focus on the important things in life. when i spend time with my family i spend time with my friends and my neighbors and i don't have to think about schools i don't have to think about any problems and that's really a sense of freedom i heard religion might restrict me but by doing so it gives me the freedom to clear my mind. 'd and also with prayer i feel how

it touches my soul really touches my heart when we sing. meant finished and it also told i wouldn't trade this moment for anything in the world. i'm in 12th grade at the rocks given nauseum thankfully i'll complete my high school diploma next year for me is the truth my focus is science chemistry biology and math but i'm also interested in ancient languages like greek and latin my oral exam subjects is history yeah those are my favorite subjects. i. really wouldn't mind once they threw money at me they said because you like money so much marks are going to get on and i understood they thought i like money because i'm jewish and i said please never ever do that again.

feeling you can to he and his image become how many young people have experienced anti semitism don't want to go on camera because they don't want to be targeted. or who book anti semitism in schools in germany that frankfurt best says she has just . left it some examples. heard a classmate saying the holocaust never happened she intervened and asked him what he was saying the boy replied you should have been gassed along with them the gazans on. live teach said to me if all jews are like you then i can see where hitler was coming from. ever he was in the 8th or 9th grade when his classmates told him to go to the gas chambers like his relatives and skin.

camos farms i'm 20 years old i'm from frankfurt i'm about to start school in berlin as a film student. writes in yeah i wrote the noise when i was 13 years old it was i started going to a new school. i didn't know at the time that there might be anything wrong with saying that i was jewish or that it could be a problem in any way or and but i quickly noticed that my classmates thought it was funny to draw swastikas harking quite small and home to molyneux that i had as soon as the word gas came up the whole class turned and looked at me. i'm fighting mask on in the beginning it wasn't hurtful at all because i didn't understand it was god i didn't know that this was anti semitism and that it was actively directed against me as a jewish that this. is going on as if you would have been 5 lovers

that i got around school that i was jewish yeah i think i was actually the only jew at the school governesses yes i can say i was bullied for being jewish but in the 7th grade and because my german was a little worse than it is you know because not everyone has a birthmark like mine now and in the 7th grade that definitely makes a difference often for us also as if you the 3 factors came together used to my birthmark and russian. helplessness is a so there's a cumulative the anger that builds up with all those little things all those jokes and invited some point you've had it out of path and it goes bam-bam month. you feel. you don't know what to do with yourself that's a big problem on the same course problem because it makes things develop that you don't even want to imagine forster's moved far and come or not now few months ago

there was a situation that school where you go out together with 2 boys called me a jew as an insult you didn't bloody tired as you took the term and used it in a negative way she said a lot of a bad word is about and one cannot own and i was totally overwhelmed and upset when it happened manfred she complained for them feel completely alienated usman you don't want to be who you are you wish you'd never been born as all this is that that's the terrible thing about racism anti-semitism whatever that it makes you dislike yourselves exist. as each person has been born i grew up without a religious upbringing but we've always had. connection to the senate on a cool with. well kept i just started to really engage with it step by step down but also it was a process and i gradually integrated more and more things into my everyday life so

my school had to get used to the fact that i wasn't going to go to school on jewish holidays my friends had to get used to the fact that i can't go out partying with them on saturday he didn't find out it wasn't an obvious choice for everyone from this dunston. i was up to after i came out as jewish it made the rounds in the school relatively quickly and i got some surely do you want pretty soon everyone knew i was jewish. father sean preston v i was presented a bit like a museum piece can stick but people accepted it. delighted when i transferred to another school and on the list when my own class knew that i was jewish if you discipline. but the other classes didn't not. imposible star none of the in the school courtyard and i'd often hear expressions like don't act like a juvenile thing you don't be a chew fun fun sometimes i'd go over your friends of mine for god and say that's

not cool don't do that roman is jewish almost as much as that and there was this look of shock won't we have jews here in school. when we're felt uncomfortable yes the word was used every day don't appear to you or don't act like a jew on. your dog particularly better because i saw how the people who constantly said things like that i started to pay attention to what they were saying and the sum of all i want to slips out they apologize for this because when it's in someone's vocabulary it's hard to stop or look once it's the swears the right answers their. peoples for the title must take his illness i used to see it as a disadvantage to grow up in a small jewish community and then and there as if i'm one of the few actual jews in essen egypt in mind is the jewish community here is very very small a 1000 people to my i would say that less than 10 percent of all people who live in

essen have ever actually met a jew. and you can get at. 2 them and. i studied acting and i work a lot with jewish communities all over germany but i'm with youth groups and zones in general i would describe myself as an actor. yes one of the answers now at the moment as i see having grown up in essen is a real advantage in bed the in cologne or berlin maybe i wouldn't stand out as much as i do here in essence into our. lives at. the little. in fact i'd be happy if people who live in essen watch this program because s n was actually one of the centers of jewish life in germany before world war 2 dogs from. jason had the 3rd largest synagogue in germany until 938.

as this one was shaped by its jewish community for the whole of the 2nd world war that's not the case now and it's a shame but it doesn't mean it won't change in the future. when you do it soon you get out i'm jewish and the kid is part of me i wear it at home all the time i wear to synagogue why can't i wear to school i remember that day when i came to school wearing a kippah. orleans and the vice principal came up to me and said sam well i think it's great what you're doing but you know the school rules say no head coverings are allowed and he said i was like yeah but what about the headscarf you have this and she said yes well the headscarf is different you don't have to wear keep because i so i said it's actually very important to me that

jewish life is also represented at the school you just leave because we have jewish students and the keeper is important to me and it's the jewish equivalent to the muslim headscarf and i'm going to wear it now and so close to and then the next day she came up to me and apologized and said how embarrassed she was and i just thought it was a funny moment you to science had nothing but good experiences to go home and i was elected student representative with a cute pastor give me a key problem. thank you. for. the good to. see you. it was says i avoid a lot of conflict situations because while i'm jewish i don't look at it i don't wear a kippa except at weddings and i don't wear a star of david vitter down toward a big tax bill the guy with the food shop to buy my beneath him bought in the farm

once i was riding the train and i had my star of david on and an older man sat down across from me and surratt he got up immediately and sat somewhere else and kept looking at me very angrily and from there the bizarre introduction. because actually you say this more with me. as he's been asked me what do you have to do 1st. went down the right hand on the arm and right hand. this one you don't want and so. i try to never hired my jewishness and i wear my star of david necklace opening and

his attacks on the model that they're all situations where my mother asks me not to say i know that there have been problems where you're going could you please try not to attract attention name the 1st thing i say is a no says hello i'm jewish i kind of sit back and see what the situation is and yes some fortunately there have been times where i've put my star of david on the my t. shirt should you know. i find it kind of sad you should actually be able to expect that it's a chill you can live just like any other german does here in germany. that we always have to have the police in front of the school i think it's not terrible but more a shame that i did what our sports hall isn't in the school building and when we walk to the gym you know we always have to wait until the security and police are there. but it is a police have to walk us to the gym. and

fribourg i want my keep openly for a year that is without covering it up with a cap even when i was doing sports. actually i'm tired i didn't even notice how the attacker followed me into the locker room i think and while i was busy doing something at my locker he grabbed me from behind and ripped off my keeper then he shouted this doesn't belong here you're dirty to live so on. and he tried to tear up the keeper it didn't work so he spat on it and threw it in the trash free but then he said free palestine and spat on the ground and then he came up to me very close and threatened to beat me up there were other people in the locker room the whole time i turned to the other people in the row and we made eye contact and nobody said anything kind of us they didn't move an inch and that's what hurt the most on the guitar stand of my mother knows the truth. even i myself was once in

a situation where i was put down and insulted in class do you jewish which because i also have red hair was something meant my eyes would hurt me the most was not the insult but that the other 23 people just sat there and didn't say a word unkind involved his act. should invention and i would like people to stand up and show some courage not just when it comes to people of the jewish faith but for people of all say i do mind you shouldn't hide behind someone else or hide behind the crowd and say let the others do something so you should try to act as. the final part of a reporter asked me if the attacker was ethnically german yes i said i didn't want to talk about the nationality of the perpetrator why was i being asked to say yes it was imported anti semitism no it wasn't there's no such thing as imported

anti-semitism anti semitism has never disappeared from history shows jews have been hated since the beginning of time most jewish holidays follow this pattern someone tried to kill us it didn't work but see. you just might have an issue and every time i'm asked about muslim at the summit as a song i say sorry but that's just an excuse to deflect responsibility up to the. last see that nora tells the story of her brother in which the perpetrators none of him had an immigrant background all got away scot free and he and his 3 jewish friends were severely bullied so badly that they had to be picked up from school all of them changed schools i think except for one or 2 and the fact that the kids who were doing the bullying didn't get kicked out of school they just weren't any serious consequence not the kind of stuff the consequence.

of in fact asked i definitely think that the 1st reaction of all teachers and professionals should be to educate you should stop it 100 percent and explain to the students why it's wrong because that's the biggest problem i think they don't know why it's wrong if this is just a joke to them by the disease and that's. because of 11 i think it would be a big mistake if the teachers just cut the person off or send them out to. punish. the money and i think punishment it's not very productive and the end punishment just makes the hatred grow it creates even more negative associations you know it. doesn't help people deal with the problem it just makes people feel strengthened in their conviction because especially at our age everyone wants to we want to test.

it comes not seen v. i can't understand how the teachers can think there's no anti semitism at our school it's not a problem we don't need to talk about it. well we visited a concentration camp on the school hike so we've shown what the consequences of anti semitism are so they know about it on the sets. of a pitch from an east into a jewish students face and said to remind you. of them is. the teacher goes really angry to does not but she said you know what i don't want people like you in my closet either you behave yourself and cut it out with these actually semitic slows and leave the room in the whole. series they just

leave the room just leave it on and then the student was like i was just kidding. but then everybody else was like you don't joke around with something like that that's gross. and what my teacher did was completely right and i wish i still had classes with her because i really felt comfortable with her 2 kids through the snow. over the years i've run into a lot of my classmates again by chance i have more self-confidence and i talked to almost everyone about it i don't and we discussed the issues after these direct conversations we shook hands they also apologized for what they said or did that's why i think education and direct discourse is definitely the right way to approach this should.

but in a deering a discussion about israel is 6 foot tall boy sat next to each other and yelled at her that israelis do exactly the same thing to palestinians that the nazis did to the jews. and partly via. and once i was at a party and i was talking about how i go to a jewish school and i also said i'm jewish and so i was standing there with my girlfriend and a young guy and we were just talking about this stuff. and the 1st thing he said after i said i was jewish and he was all worked up was so what's your stand on israel. what about israeli politics why is it like. i'm suddenly the israeli foreign minister i have to justify myself right away why

are we doing this unless this is this is this you plural what it means has you guys in that way. i have nothing to do with the state of israel i've never been there i cannot vote there i have no responsibility for the actions carried out there have been and i don't agree with everything they do so it's a shame that everything gets lumped together you have has an emphasis just assuming that i know everything about israel and about israeli politics it's pretty ridiculous you know. i think what happens in today's society is this yes people are critical of israel that's ok it's ok to say that it's not anti sematic but what's behind this criticism of israel is often a really hateful kind of anti-semitism that's most he said. that israel is demonized and even conflated with the ethics of the holocaust equated with the nazis they're not and that there is this term the israeli or the palestinian

holocaust holocaust setting them equivalent if you can't relativize the holocaust like that. mattering his right and there was someone once we even called me a child i can assure you i've never killed anyone you have never killed a child. i think it's more anti-semitism is not just about wearing a kippah in public and having it ripped off and being spat on. 12 mention one tough but i think it depends on who you encounter for me at school i always had to explain myself and i always got these quite hopeful looks. oh. you're the 1st jewish person i've ever met.

there are always people also in the 12th grade who treat you with kid gloves and then when them are shown they are really cautious and you can tell they're watching what they say. first if they think they might accidentally hurt your feelings. and i just money. a certain kind of you this shouldn't be this fair of interacting we're not some exotic. threatened with extinction i'm a completely normal human being if there's anything you're interested in just tell us. it's cool i'll see you the same way i would if i were talking about soccer even so i like to play soccer that was someone asked me what my favorite team is and i know that fans of 1860 munich i know they won't like it when i say my favorite team is by and i sometimes think to myself in that situation be careful but i still talk to them normally when i'm at the polls on ice for she often but i can also understand that when there's no active jewish life going on around them but just

memorials to destroyed synagogues and i think 3 commemorative events a year to the secular holocaust memorial day the jewish holocaust memorial day and november 9th that's all people know about being jewish so i get that there's this feeling oh this is something different something on for milliards that's what's noise it's this is you know. this time didn't for me don't you must have been preaching history cost we watched the film the boy in the striped pajamas and the teacher came over to me in front of the home class convention now down beside me on hand and said yeah if it's too hard for you to watch this you can go outside and i found bats and paul i know that she meant well it just made me really mind that it was this kind of pity and i find

pity and i don't like as a tool this might be astonished. the man i suppose you want to whenever you say something about judaism and people always think right away of the show on the holocaust and not of the culture itself and i think that's why people somehow get so uptight. the a few times often we fall into this victim role very often because it was something very terrible that happened in history right. i want to be with jesus to the holocaust was that so maybe i am not the holocaust the holocaust. interest of course we can't forget what happened not at all on the other hand we aren't victims anymore and we're not the ones who experienced their skin those were normal people who should have a normal place in everyday life shouldn't have

a special status we should just be normal. so yes that's what i wanted to say but i didn't manage to put it so well. in. the. world. and with what it's my own hype and i've been helping out for 2 and a half years in the jewish community in munich tonnages i'm 5 the great thing is that when i go there it feels like family i feel very very appreciated that we do it also there's a good credit. to. the stats i miss as a shock to visiting it's very empowering to know that you have a huge community behind you that's really there for you at the end of the day august i come from in a bad marriage or something bad has just happened i go there and somehow

a feeling of my cousin just kind of envelops me and there's an extremely strong sense of solidarity. there's good mix with your mother she has nothing to be ashamed of and nothing to be afraid of by you can talk about anything for money because this is a place where you can be open and from where we've become a small family and so i live here. under the gun feeling something a lot of us take part in that you refer to vision from that your revision takes place once a year each time in a different city i know when she. did your vision and. the tour of asia nice singing and dancing competition the night e.s.c. figure efficient song contest with jewish communities this is video and tree because the new wii u. for god yeah we made a music video live. there most of it is huge each jewish community had to choose

a video introducing their community and city and a thing. is good and it's about life cycles that is cycles in jewish life. circumcision then you turn 13 and theoretically you are an adult and so basically everything that happens in a jewish life. and then you we always rehearse from october all the way 3 days and then you perform. i. says others it's everything it's joy it's everything all at once when you stand there and there are 4 or 5000 people watching you and you think oh god. that is

a. month and you're already standing there with this microphone so you think to yourself in the building ok i have to finish this this and then the coolest thing is when people celebrate what you're doing and then you just can't stop it you just want to stay on stage because of you know blood. like. i'm a disc it missed me it's not about winning it's more about seeing friends again for new me does the. church. home for months look it's a meeting place where you can really see your jewish you don't have to be afraid you don't have to hide you can be open and. really feel comfortable there was who. was. nearby and close the idea is to embody the belief that we're just like anybody else we're not aliens or anything. that's really smear that's what i'd wish for that

nobody looks at you funny. there's definitely a new generation of the hold on isn't any young and very young generation involved in our community mind. lamb futures are we have a lot to say and we want people to listen and. if you know me for instance going i wish would be mentioned to be more open to people in my circle of friends is non-judicial this very doesn't matter what religion you're on your money you're simply among friends went into among people recently grew up here it's our home too and we have to actively show you this because we don't all at the same other people come to see the way jewish we don't have we are jewish written on our foreheads. men i don't think of one time it's this my only wish for the future is to be able to be normal as a jew. i wish people didn't stare at girls with headscarves or boys with kid bodies or whatever everyone should live like they want us out of the in view of.

the future what i would like to see is the other jewish life. real jewish life the has it's all about what really happens what makes people tick. well it's in place. at the end of the day we do have an active jewish life here in germany it is just for many people in mainstream society jews are simply a friend group that always gets to meet and i think it's simply wrong to reduce that to just that we would all fit would see it viewed. as neat and all of them have lost it also it's in our hands what we do with it is up to us you. can turn things around and show people when hey i'm jewish but i'm also a student and i travel on and i cook and being jewish is one of the element that makes me who i am. this is all that's our challenge i know but it's

only possible to meet it up to a certain point because to be honest i'm not sure how people will react to this picture. india. on this california is not the main product. gets done. the beach on farm in noida is the next level organic farm here local greens are treated like stars as are the mountains they leave behind is
