There is a full-on push in NYC right now to use "Mamdani doesn't make Jews 'feel safe'" as a cudgel to get Cuomo into office, and it is utterly disgusting. You know what makes me feel unsafe? People who casually characterize us as a trembling single-issue monolith scared of the big bad Muslim.

My thanks to the LA Times for letting me write about the life of John Candy and two new projects (a documentary and a biography) that explore his legacy. www.latimes.com/entertainmen...

The beloved actor, who would have turned 75 this month, is the focus of an eponymous book biography and "John Candy: I Like Me," a Prime Video documentary.

I can't emphasize enough how ugly and pervasive and persistent the "Mamdani hates Jews" campaign was. I'm happy that so many Jews stood strong against that vileness. Maybe people will start to understand that we've had it with being treated as a paranoid, easily manipulated single-issue bloc.
