Jonathan Brooks in 2018
We received an email from a concerned reader on Sunday. âAs a concerned Jewish person living in the Circle City,â he wrote. âI was wondering if NUVO would be removing your content surrounding chef Jonathan Brooks.â
This reader is incensed because Milktooth restaurant owner and chef Jonathan Brooks posted on Instagram a post about blood libel. If I m not âreally Jewishâ then how would I be so familiar with the taste of children s blood? he wrote Thursday, using the name âthebeastgodforgot,â on Instagram Stories. Â
Brooks, who is rebranding his restaurant as Jewish deli-influenced, was defending himself with a remark referencing blood libel against a charge of appropriating Jewish food to make a profit.

LOS ANGELES Artist Jules Muck began painting graffiti as a teen in Europe and England in the 1990s. Now, her art is seen across the United States and around the world. I think that art is bringing a lot of light to people, and especially street art is very important right now because museums and galleries are closed, she told Localish.
In Santa Monica, CA you can see her mural that calls for peace after two men were killed in late August 2020 in Kenosha, Wisconsin. When I m driving around LA or anywhere I see one of my pieces, the main thing that it does for me is it makes me feel at home, Muck said. I m a first-generation immigrant and everywhere I ve lived I ve felt like I didn t belong so when I put my work out there I feel like oh I m allowed to be here.
