Blatt + Blue: Little White Lies

  • Congregation B'nai Emunah 1719 South Owasso Avenue Tulsa, Oklahoma 74120 USA (map)

Lacey Schwartz grew up convinced she was white. She has copper skin, black curls and full lips - features which distinguish her instantly from her Jewish parents. But it wasn’t until she was 18 that she learned the truth: her real father was black. Eight years in the making and put together by Lacey herself, Little White Lies tells the compelling story of an uncomfortable, unacknowledged truth.

Call the Synagogue at (918) 583-7121 if you have any difficulty locating the program at home. The Zoom meeting ID is 918 583 7121; the session will begin at 7:00 p.m. and concludes at 8:00 p.m. Newcomers are welcome to join the dialogue.

Blatt + Blue is the longest-running project at the Synagogue dating from the advent of the pandemic. It is now over three years old and continues to spotlight a diverse and provocative roster of films and television. The series expresses the Synagogue’s commitment to an inclusive and pluralistic vision of the Jewish world.
