I don't remember exactly what grade I was in, but I remember learning his name years back when my class had us do a report on a unknown American Revolutionary Figure. For how I discovered him, I don't know, but I was determined to do my report on him, especially since I felt the need to prove that Jews were here in the U.S long before the great migration of the 1800s! I become fascinated with the fact that before the 1800s it was only Sephardic Jews that lived in the U.S not Ashkenazic Jew which have dominated Jewish Life and Culture here in the U.S and completely within a matter of a few decades almost wiped out Sephardic identity here in the states! You would think that as an Ashkenazic I'd be 100% team Ashkenazic, but knowing the role Sephardic Jews played in both the Colonies and The Revolution makes me an American Jew feel the need to fight for my existence here in the U.S! Because without Jews there be no U.S therefore as an American Jew knowing these pioneers helps proved that we Jews belong here and it is because of us that this country stands, so show us some respect!
Apart from the story, which is great!, I really like the editing, the animated segments and how you use movie references to visualize the events, I can tell that you put a lot of love and work into it.
Funny how we're always reminded of the jews that played a prominent role in the Russian revolution - which they did - but never about the American revolution.
I think the whole socialist Jew snipe fits it so well that the antisemites don't let it go. Plus unlike the Russian revolution, American Revolution didn't have as many Jews as leaders. Russian Revolution had a lot of Jewish leaders. Some of the greatest leaders were Jews. I say this as a Jew who hates leftism and communism almost as much as I hate antisemitic assholes. But it's not hard to understand why our ancestors may have been drawn to communism with it's rhetoric of class warfare and destroying oppression. I can't help but feel like I might've been a long with them if I had been in that time period. Poor and living in a shtetl, worried any night could bring a pogrom.

Dr. John de Sequeyra, a Sephardic Jew of Portuguese extraction, was born in London and moved to Williamsburg, Virginia, in 1745. He was an eminent physician, and known for visiting patients in a hospital for the mentally ill. There is an apocryphal story that says he ate a tomato in the town square in Williamsburg to prove that the vegetable was not poison. The truth is that de Sequeyra and Thomas Jefferson worked to popularize tomatoes in America.
