The fact that you got doxxed and threatened for your heritage is seriously messed up. You can't change where you come from. And you shouldn’t have to.

I'm not Jewish, but this is the kind of video we need during these times with anti-semitism on the rise.

i have a friend called Anatoly, Hes Half Argentinian, Half Syrian. He is also jewish, which i know sounds weird but hear me out, Last year, he got attacked by some………… extremely racist people, they found out he wasnt a mexican catholic, and he was a Argentinian-Syrian Jew, and they jumped him in the middle of the night with his family, they found out who he was because he had a Facebook page and thats where they found out everything about him, and almost killed him, rn he is fine, but if they stabbed him 2 inches to the left of his kidney, he would have been paralyzed I want to spread Awareness about this issue and help people that are in danger like my friend, people with different religions and ethnicities are still human.

bro how can any christian hate jews when jesus was jewish 💀💀💀💀

As a Black Jewish woman, the type of discrimination I receive because I am not a European Jew is insane. Thanks for making this video :)

"But you don't look Jewish" Flashbacks to "But you don't... seem... autistic" (Reference to a video)

In my country anti Jewish stuff is a federal crim. The punishment is 2 years I think

I think this video had on me the most intense grown of empathy that I ever felt on YT

My grandfather used to get bullied for being Jewish as a kid, so he became a lawyer specialising in keeping Australian Aboriginal Culture alive. He then became a Judge on the Federal Court to help more people. This just reminded me of him. Thank you for saying this.

I'm not Jewish, but I have a lot of empathy. Being Black, I know that any kind of abuse for any group outside of the norm opens up abuse for everyone who is considered outside of the norm. We all need each other and to stand up for each other.

I’m Jewish and I love your videos and it’s hard for me on the Internet where I know most Youtubers aren’t like me and I see hurtful videos all the time about Jewish people one day I searched up Jewish for kids and you popped up and ever since then I became a big fan Thank you illy Edit-i’ve never even had this many likes on a comment I’m so grateful. Thank you.

I love and respect all religions even though I’m athiest so I respect you

As a person originating from the Muslim community, I fully support you and understand your struggles. Unfortunately, I've been around a lot of disrespectful and hateful Muslims who say the most horrendous stuff said, and I hope I find people who are more accepting of other people...other humans.

I'm a reform Jew, adopted from China and raised Jewish, and I've had these struggles all my life, so thank you making this video! I relate to a lot of points in this!!!

Good on you for trying to get to the core of who you are. I love that people ribbing you about something so minor in your life inspired you to get more in touch with it thats the kind of power move i respect. Religion has been a sore topic lately and I have been feeling the antiwave with how much I spent online and its alwase good to be reminded about how lables dont make the person and judging before you get to know a person is pretty awful. However Im still pretty concerned about how quick people are to censoring opinions on this topic. If only the world had cooler heads and clearer visions we wouldnt have to fight over the silliest little things. Its really scary how much religion is used to control too instead of uplift in many cases. In the end all i really want is freedom to speak my mind and form my own opinions and find my own way. So respect on forging your own path and taking strength from your bloods past and as long as you do good may good come to you.

My Dad is Jewish and always taught me that because my mum's not Jewish, I'm not Jewish and it hurt for a while. This video made me realise that I have Jewish heritage and now I want to learn more about it.

this video came at a perfect time. the crazy amount of antisemitism happening around the world is terrifying, and i'm not even jewish. i'm worried for all my jewish friends, the stuff they tell me about the hate they experience is shocking.

I grew up christian and have cousins who are jewish and one of them recently had a batmitzva and I love getting to learn and grow with new cultures. Stay amazing!
