  1. "The Forward compiled and reviewed video of 10 #pageants in the #US since 2020 that feature a #Jewish character named “zhyd,” “Moshko” or “Chaim,” and sometimes his wife, usually named Sarah. All were posted to social media, in many cases by the #churches themselves.

    The pageants mix and match a few motifs, all showing these two #Jews in a negative light as they try to lure #Christians to commit sin. Some tempt the faithful with goods, loans or liquor. Some mock believers for worshipping #Christ; curse Christians; summon and collude with the #devil, or betray baby #Jesus to #KingHerod, who is seeking to kill him.

    Most of the #actors playing the zhyd role wore what look to be #peyos, the sidelocks traditionally worn by #Orthodox #Jews. In one instance, the character wore an exaggerated #fakenose.

    The Forward located photos from an additional eight pageants for which video is not publicly available that show actors with what appear to be peyos or a fake nose."

  3. I could not independently verify the strongest version of the claim from a primary Miss America rules page in the results I reviewed, so the safest reading is that this is a reported policy-language revision tied to a wider public dispute.

  4. This weekend I started #wikipedia articles on Baltimore-born sisters Elizabeth Gutman Kaye (1887-1971) and Adele Gutman Nathan (1889-1986); Elizabeth was a singer and artist, and Adele was a theatrical director who wrote more than a dozen children's books on history topics.
