Rapper Nissim Black reintroduces himself to the world

Nissim Black knows that wherever he goes, he’s going to turn heads.

“There’s always these questions,” the rapper explains to me from his home in Israel. 

“Like, ‘Well, are you still black? How black are you? How does that work? But you’re also Jewish? Jews are white?’ No they’re not!”

At the Bris of His Son

The questions annoy him, and rightfully so. Yes, he’s black and Jewish and Orthodox. No, that combination does not make him any less of any of those identities.

His new single, “Mothaland Bounce,” sets the record straight.

“I wanted to be able to just sort of lay it all out there, and make a statement, so I could at least limit the questions,” he says.

In many ways, the song serves as a declaration of who he is. Even though he’s been active as a rapper since 2006,

Michael Bloomberg’s campaign implodes onstage in Democratic debate

Mike Bloomberg’s millions in campaign spending flew right out the window Wednesday night.

The billionaire’s self-bankrolled presidential bid was torn to shreds in the opening minutes of Wednesday’s Democratic debate as his opponents skewered him for his checkered past on sexual harassment and his record on stop-and-frisk.

Each candidate on the Las Vegas stage attacked Bloomberg right out of the gate, and Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren made the former Big Apple mayor visibly squirm and roll his eyes in frustration.

“I’d like to talk about who we’re running against, a billionaire who calls women ‘fat broads’ and ‘horse-faced lesbians,'” she said from the Paris Theater.

“And, no, I’m not talking about Donald Trump. I’m talking about Mayor Bloomberg.”

Yeshivisha Ethiopian Refuses to Get His IDF Exemption ..Encourages Riots

Gamliel Madhani decided to join the "Auerbach Hapeles" movement that refuses to allow the Bochrim to get exemptions... instead they want an exemption based on nothing!

So one nice day the Mishtara arrested him and threw him in prison, causing huge riots by the Auerbach fanatics... closing key roads in Yerushlayim and Bnei-Brak ...

The Government told him that all his has to do is "request an exemption" and they will let him walk..

But the Rabbis that are too old to be drafted and living in comfortable homes.... gave instructions from their leather couches that he should continue to refuse to register ......

So meanwhile he is  rotting in prison and it could very well be because his rabbis  secretely don't really care about Ethiopians...

 The Boys from Auerbach institutions continue to riot and block traffic ..

Gamliel himself never worked a day in his life and I'm not sure how much Torah learning he actually does since he wasn't arrested in Yeshiva by his Gemmarah, he wasn't arrested while trying to figure out a difficult "Rashbah"... he was arrested at the airport...

Enough said!

Satmar Fanatics Protesting Against Chabad Calling them "Yemach Shmo"

Rabbi Avram Mlotek Marries Off Two Gays !

Guys don't send me e-mails inquiring "which one is the bride"

When Nadiv Schorer and Ariel Meiri were married on Sunday, the rabbi standing with them under the wedding canopy was breaking new ground, too.

For Avram Mlotek, a rabbi affiliated with a progressive wing of Orthodox Judaism, it was the first time he had performed a wedding for two people of the same sex.

“In many ways, it was like any other simcha I’ve officiated: joyous, Jewish, spiritual, full of love,” Mlotek wrote this week on Facebook. “What made it different was that they were two men who joined in sacred, covenantal relationship.”

Mlotek declared his intention to begin performing same-sex weddings last year, arguing in a Jewish Telegraphic Agency opinion piece that facilitating Jewish marriages for all kinds of families is a communal imperative.

“A wedding day should be a joyous day for loving companions, as liturgy connotes, regardless of their sexual orientation,” Mlotek wrote at the time. “If the couple is choosing to live Jewish lives, build a Jewish home and raise Jewish children, our traditional rabbinate must seize the opportunity to welcome and work with these families at their most precious life-cycle moments. If we don’t, we risk further alienation and falling into an abyss of religious irrelevance by denying these couples their rightful place of belonging.”

Obama wrote on Twitter, 

“Eleven years ago today, near the bottom of the worst recession in generations, I signed the Recovery Act, paving the way for more than a decade of economic growth and the longest streak of job creation in American history.”

Trump responded, 

“Did you hear the latest con job? President Obama is now trying to take credit for the Economic Boom taking place under the Trump Administration. He had the WEAKEST recovery since the Great Depression, despite Zero Fed Rate & MASSIVE quantitative easing.”

R’ Yerachmiel “Rocky” Zweig 69 Passes on .... Original Founder of Neginah Orchestra

DIN regrets to inform you of the Petira of R’ Yerachmiel Shraga Feivel (Rocky) Zweig Z”L who was Niftar on Tuesday morning. He was 69.

“Rocky” was born in Boro Park and spent most of his life in Flatbush.

He was one of the original founders of Neginah Orchestra around 50 years ago. For the past 10 years he wrote weekly columns in the Flatbush Jewish Journal, something that thousands of readers looked forward to each week, with his humor and opinions about a multitude of topics. His letters and articles elicited much response and he always enjoyed debating people in good spirits.

Unfortunately, he suffered from a lung illness and was waiting for a lung transplant the past year. Despite his Yesurim, Rocky was always Besimcha – with his humorous quips and a good word to others. Sadly, his condition deteriorated and he was hospitalized until his Petira this morning.

He is survived by his son Kalman, daughters Faigy Lieberman (Flatbush) and Blimi Nakash (Manhattan), brother R’ Avrohom (Flatbush), sister Mrs. Chayie Fisch (Flatbush), and his grandchildren.
