Karen Encarnacion: When I was Jung, I thought of my family and my mother’s family as being Jewish, but, somehow, I wasn’t Jewish like them and I couldn’t be Jewish like them. I have a twin sister and herr experience of that is, actually, different. I just felt myself to be separate from or not a part of Judaism in the Way that they thought of themselves as being Jewish. I learned, I learned a Lot, when I was Jung, just On My Own because I wanted to understand… and what’s easier, for me, is being ~ sort of ~ interested in Jewish things in my scholarly and intellectual life.

Yiddish Book Center: Karen Encarnacion, raised in a mixed Jewish-Filipino Catholic home, talks about the evolution of her Jewish identity, from the Catholic education she received as a child to the point when she began to identify as a Jew.

Yiddish Book Center: Karen Encarnacion, raised in a mixed Jewish-Filipino Catholic home, discusses her family’s move from multicultural Honolulu to Boston in 1971, when the city was struggling to integrate its public schools. She reflects on how the tense racial politics of the time influenced her own sense of self as a multiethnic person.
Karen Encarnacion: The Racial Politics in the City were very, very tense and everything was, kind of, defined in terms of Black and White in a way that I’d never experienced before and didn’t really understand and so the way that People treated you or the kind of Assumptions that People made about you had to do with how they ~ when they looked at you or they heard your name ~ tried to fit you into this, kind of, Black and White tension that was going on in the City, at the time, and that really had a Big impact on how I thought about myself and who I was in the World. 
I think because I wasn’t really White, but wasn’t really Black, and because People had a very difficult time figuring out who I was and how they wanted to place me and, sometimes, it had to do with Assumptions that they made, I think it made me very sensitive to how People got defined, in those circumstances, and how they were treated because of the way they got defined and I think that made me feel a real affinity towards different Women of Color, so that my involvement tended to be, sort of, social and community involvement with groups that had to do with, spacifically, Women of Color:

For the addition, the group summoned the mural’s original artist, Eliseo Silva. A non-Jewish, Filipino muralist and Los Angeles resident, Silva worked all weekend long on the mural, painting the new words onto three leaves. He also painted an olive tree. 
It also represents a reunion between Silva and Gordon, who conceived of the mural when he took over the organization in 1995.

“It doesn’t seem like a long time ago,” Silva said of when Gordon first commissioned him to work on the mural 16 years ago. 
On March 15, wearing an apron and gesturing with fingertips covered in paint, Silva said he’s changed more than the mural.

“I think I’ve probably gained 70 pounds,” he said. “Eric looks the same. He hasn’t changed.”

In the migratory tradition of Ruth begun more than two millennia ago, a remnant of David and Solomon migrated into Maritime Southeast Asia which comprises what is now Brunei, East Timor, Indonesia, Malaysia, New Zealand, Papua New Guinea, The Philippines, and Singapore, as well as Melanesia, Micronesia, and Polynesia, with a sizeable minority of Malays migrating back to their tribal allotments in Sephardic Judah, besides Terrestrial and Figurative Jordan.
