3: Screenshot, Google Images search for “Jewish,” 2015.

These are the first pictures that have appeared in a search of the word “Jewish” on the Google Images search engine.

Suggested activity: Begin by asking students to draw the first thing that comes to mind when they hear the word “Jewish.” Ask them to share and discuss what they drew. Then show them these images. What does this say about how Jewishness is imagined/depicted? How do these images match or differ from your own image of who you are (or who a Jew is)?
