Orthodox Jew and rapper Nissim: I’m proud of being a Yid, I’m also proud to be Black

Nissim is an orthodox Jew who was born a Sunni Muslim in Seattle by parents who were both rappers and drug abusers. He first converted to Christianity, and then to Judaism, which for him as an African-American makes perfect sense, as he's told the Level - “There’s really not too many other people in the world that should be able to relate over struggles and discrimination and prejudice than Jewish people and Black people".
