Amir Hetsroni Documents Mizrahi Celebration From Ashkenazi Perspective at Likud Activist's Son's Bris

Professor Amir Hetsroni attended the bris of the son of Likud activist Viktor Shriki and chose to document the event through his provocative lens, creating a video he described as a "Mizrahi celebration from an Ashkenazi perspective." The event took place recently and was shared publicly by Hetsroni on social media.

Hetsroni began by showing the modest gift he bought for the newborn, costing only two shekels, highlighting his outsider viewpoint. Throughout the bris, he contrasted his own cultural stance with the festive atmosphere of the guests. He questioned the absence of Ashkenazi musical icons like Arik Einstein and Chava Alberstein, noting that the singer at the event was unfamiliar with these artists and instead focused on Mediterranean and Hasidic music.

The video also captured interactions with other guests, including playful jabs and references to a previous incident involving Hetsroni known as the "chair incident." Despite emphasizing cultural differences and tensions, Hetsroni concluded the video on a positive note, expressing that he enjoyed the event and looked forward to attending the next celebration.
