Last week Funny or Die posted a parody of “Black and Yellow” called “Black and Jewish”. If you haven’t already watched it, please do so now.

Goldie Goldbloom is an author, mother, and a queer frum Jew living in Chicago. Originally from Australia, Goldie spends the majority of her day being a full-time writer and mother.
