(...) People hate Jews because they are communists, capitalists, foreigners, residents, immigrants, elitists, have strange ways, are unassimilated, too assimilated, bankroll the left (like George Soros) or bankroll the right (like Sheldon Adelson). People hate Jews because they are weak and stateless, or because they are Zionists and defend Israel (...)

"It's Jews that control the banks"
A speech by Rabbi Wolpe.
"it became impossible for people to see Jews the same way they see other people, and to see them in a way that is almost always to their detriment even sometimes when they are Jewish themselves"

Who got America to the moon? An unlikely collaboration of Jewish and former Nazi scientists and engineers
(...) On the other side was Abraham Silverstein, who had grown up in a poor Jewish family in Indiana. He was NASA’s space flight chief and later became director at NASA’s Lewis Research Center in Cleveland (...)
The collaboration between Von Braun and Silverstein was not unique. During the Apollo program, which landed Americans on the moon six times between 1969 and 1972, NASA was filled with both Jewish scientists and a large group of Germans who had worked for Hitler before and during World War II. The Nazi regime had been dedicated to the extermination of Jews. That the two groups were able to work side by side suggests a level of reconciliation, or at least acceptance, that would seem a near impossibility in today’s fractious social and political climate.
(...)
It was an era when moral judgments took a back seat to a deeply held commitment to the future of space travel and support of national goals.
The children of both the Germans and the Jews say there was never any talk at home about resentments or bigotry. Instead, their parents were laser-focused on the monumental challenge of the lunar mission. NASA historical records tell the same story.
It helped to have a little humor too.
“My dad said NASA was built by Jews, Nazis and hillbillies,” recalled Reuben Slone, the son of NASA engineer Henry Slone, a member of the Cleveland Jewish community.
The story of that collaboration has scarcely, if at all, been written about, space historians say, though much has been written about the German scientists and some about various Jewish scientists.
(...)
One thing also united many of the NASA Jews and Germans: a mutual hatred of communism.
(...)
The children of several of the Jewish engineers say their fathers never spoke to them about hatred or anger, though they suspect they were uncomfortable.
(...)
In fact, Silverstein said he was in favor of bringing the Germans into the NASA fold, because “they were an important cog in the business and to have left them out would have been silly.”
(...)
Moreover, the Jews had to deal with plenty of discrimination in America. Many went to work at NASA specifically because they were blocked from jobs in private industry.

Les Juifs pauvres sont sous-représentés dans la culture pop US
Selon un groupe de lutte contre la pauvreté au sein de la communauté juive, les Juifs sont largement représentés à l'écran comme étant plus riches qu'ils ne le sont en réalité.

Mais l’analyse se concentre davantage sur ce qu’il considère comme des occasions manquées, par exemple en attirant l’attention sur le personnage non-juif issu de la classe ouvrière joué par l’actrice juive Kat Dennings dans la sitcom de CBS « 2 Broke Girls ».
« Il n’y a aucune raison pour que son personnage n’ait pas été écrit en tant que juif », estime Moore.

1. Dedicated charities have been supporting NYC's many Jewish poor with kosher soup kitchens and other philanthropic actions, targeted for instance at the elderly. One of them is the Metropolitan Council on Jewish Poverty:
2. Jewish poverty is nothing new. In NYC, it persisted long after WW2; a Village Voice story in 1972 helped renew public awareness of this issue:
3. Years later, Jewish poverty still remains fairly invisible, in part due to shame. According to one of our intervieweees, Malcolm Hoenlein (pictured below, and once described as "the most powerful Jew in the Western world"), there's a certain stigma in the Jewish community about getting assistance.
4. Our shooting then took director Sasha Andreas to Staten Island, where he visited the Hebrew Free Burial Association:
5. Since its creation in the 1880s, the HFBA has buried over 60,000 indigent Jews, from newborns and elderly people to victims of the 1911 Triangle Shirtwaist Factory fire. It caused the deaths of 146 Manhattan garment workers, many of them Jewish immigrants, such as Kalman Donick:
A prescient documentary on Jewish poverty, by Sasha Andreas, busting the myth that "Jews got money" (an epithet used by anti-Semitic thugs). May not have received the attention it deserved because people don't get that the title is ironic. J£w$ Got Mon€¥ https://t.co/kBQR51uF6P…
