Debra Messing, Emmanuelle Chriqui, Mayim Bialik to Headline New Digital Series ‘And They’re Jewish,’ Hosted by Influencer Hen Mazzig (EXCLUSIVE)
variety.comTatiana Siegel With antisemitism surging, Israeli influencer and author Hen Mazzig is launching a new online series “And They’re Jewish,” headlined by celebrities including Emmanuelle Chriqui, Debra Messing and Mayim Bialik.
The series, which will air weekly on Mazzig’s YouTube channel beginning April 2, was created in an effort to humanize Jewish people via the personal stories of high-profile participants who explore how they engage with their religion and heritage.
