>With a population of 100,000 Jews, Germany is home to the world's fastest-growing Jewish community. And yet many Germans have never met a Jewish person - something "Rent a Jew" aims to change. DW's Kate Brady reports.
>"How many of you have met a Jew?" At a technical college in Solingen, Western Germany, 15 out of 20 cautious teenagers answer with just as many variations of no.
>"I've most likely crossed paths with one," says one student. "But I wouldn't necessarily know."
>That's where "Rent-a-Jew" steps in. "You never forget your first," the project's tagline reads. The initiative - with its admittedly provocative name - was launched by the Munich-based European Janusz Korczak Academy.
>The program's 50 members are leading seminars with private groups and educational establishments across Germany. In reaching out to non-Jews, the initiative aims to provide the opportunity to socialize with the Jewish community and break down prejudices in the process. Among them is Moscow-born Mascha Schmerling and Hanoverian Monty Aviel Zeev Ott.
>But what's in the name? "We know it's questionable. It's there to provoke, to promote conversation," Schmerling told DW.
>"People don't trust themselves to say 'Jew,'" Ott said. "But it's all about context," Schmerling added.
>'We don't want to be defined by history'
>Like many of the country's Jews, Schmerling arrived in Germany from the former Soviet Union with her mother in 1992. They were part of the so-called "contingent refugees" who today account for around 80 percent of Germany's total Jewish population of approximately 100,000.
>"We want to give people the chance to talk to the Jewish community. We want them to see that we're completely normal people," Schmerling explained.

how much does it cost?

The article doesn't say. I guess you'd have to look on their site to find out.
Is this one of those onion sites
>>91244
No, Deutschewelle is MSM in Germany.
>tfw you will never know what it's like to only have 100000 jews in your country
>>91226
germany has a population of 80 million and 100k jews means that a quarter of students asked have met with a group that only consists of 0.125% of the population. why do i get the feeling that they met these jews at college already
also can i rent one for my pizza party, its in an industrial estate and we have very large ovens for lots of pizza, please invite all your jewish friends, the more the merrier
It would be funny if someone called in a tip to the police about how this was really a disguised front for a prostitution operation

How is this bad.
>I didn't label a person and just seen him as someone like me.
>>91308
we should make them wear some sort of badge, you know so people will know when they've met one
At least 80% comes from Muslims.
Why do Jews get so much attention and support? I was at my local hospital and there were Hanukkah decorations everywhere despite my city having barely any Jews, what gives? How much money does the Jewish community have so they can waste it on PR like this?
I'll rent one female Jew with these sizes 36–24–36 for exhibition and recreational services.

I would be willing to do this even if the pay is bad, if the family that rents me will cook wurst frequently
but why?
>"I've most likely crossed paths with one," says one student. "But I wouldn't necessarily know."
I just found out my friend who I have known for two years is Jewish. You know why it took 2 years? Because it would be weird as hell if he was like "Hi I'm Jeremy and I'm a Jew". It's not like they have to wear badges anymore...
>>92195

Irony must be a foreign concept to these people.
