Legal Commentary

Forgive me. I have no idea how else to tie these two ideas together, other than that title.

First, last night's MLB All-Star Game featured two Jewish players--outfield Ryan Braun of Milwaukee and infielder Ian Kinsler of Texas. I have not looked this up, but it seems likely this is the first time this has happened. I stand corrected; as shown below, this has happened before--and then some. Still pretty neat, though.

Second, I have been wanting to post this video, titled "I Will Survive: Dancing Auschwitz," since I saw it a couple days ago. I still have not quite decided what to make of it. A family (a Holocaust survivor, his daughter, and three grandchildren) are on a tour of Europe. They record themselves dancing to Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" at a number of death camps and Holocaust memorials. An artistic statement on the triumph of the human spirit over evil? Cheesy? A little bit of both?
