💨 Abstract

Frieda Vizel, an ex-member of an ultra-Orthodox Jewish sect, leads tours and a YouTube channel about her former community. Ultra-Orthodox Jews, also known as Haredi, focus on strict religious practices and are a growing minority within Judaism. In the U.S., Orthodox Jews are increasingly aligning with Republican political views, driven by cultural and practical interests. Despite their growing numbers, Reform Jews remain politically liberal and maintain significant influence, as seen in recent elections.
