huge gleek here. my fav quote from Rachel "I want my children to be raised in the Jewish faith." wasn't Lea conceived as hard to work with, a diva? one could have presumed that she would have wanted to have a word even in the lines written for her [also as Rachel and further more, as Fanny Brice "I know we're not supposed to change the lines, I just don't feel like Fanny would say this" (and she eventually said it her way)]. Lea is Jewish. the father-mother thing is old... there is something called patrilineality... (the Karaites, central asian Jews, Beta Israel). and talking about self-identification, Lea's interview in 2009, in the Daily News "I'm Jewish". her interview in 2010, in US Weekly "I'm proud of my Jewish nose". her appearance on the 6th ep. of s 08 of Who do you think you are? (May the Holy One, blessed be He, remember her family members that were killed during the Shoah) on TLC "I'm Jewish but now I really have the knowledge to back it up."... and some phrases come to mind "affirmative acts of Jewish identity" "for those beyond childhood claiming Jewish identity public declarations may be substituted after a consultation with a Rabbi"...
