Description

Jared Milrad chats with award-winning filmmaker Ezra Edmond about his animated short film, BLEWISH. Based on Ezra's personal experience growing up Black and Jewish, BLEWISH is the story of a boy stuck in the middle -- torn between either concealing or embracing his full identity, he learns how he can help create a world where no other child feels the pressure of having to make that choice again. Ezra opens up about why he created this powerful film, the message he hopes to share, and what it's like growing up with multiple cultural and racial identities.
