Aaron Freeman and Ray Hanania
I saw Bardley Burston’s column this morning about Ray Hanania whom I know most of as an Israeli Arab (who now lives in Chicago) satirical writer for Israeli newspapers. So I decided to look him up on youtube (why youtube?) and see if there is anything of him. Apparently he’s a comedian and I found this 9 minute video of him and an African American Jew (that’s two strikes against him already) on a comedy tour. The picture and sound quality isn’t great but it is manageable.
Ray is a Palestinian-American, born and raised in Chicago. He has no ties to Israel, as his family emigrated long before 48.
