And although most people think of American Jews as white Europeans, this coincidence is a great reminder of how diverse the community is.

NOTCHES

As #AAPIMonth wraps up, let me share a cool concert documentary I edited, starring singer/actor Adam Jacobs — #Disney’s original #Aladdin on #Broadway. It’s how he became a star, from being a young #Filipino/#Jewish kid growing up in California to where he is now. Adam shares his story through songs and anecdotes during a small, intimate concert in Los Angeles, and its available thru #iTunes and #GooglePlay and other digital retailers. I hope you’ll check it out.
