, here he听is with his music collaborator and dear friend, Jewlia Eisenberg, singing Dem Milner's Trern (鈥淭he Miller鈥檚 Tears鈥) in Yiddish (lyrics in comments). This is part of Jewlia and David's "Art Is My Weapon" project, about the radical musical life of Lin Jaldati, a Dutch Jewish cabaret performer and Holocaust survivor who migrated to East Berlin after WWII and became the "Yiddish diva鈥 of the Communist world.
