Alex Edelman Wins Emmy for HBO Comedy Special on Antisemitism

Edelman's 'Just For Us' explores Jewish identity and contemporary antisemitism through humor and personal narrative.

Alex Edelman received the Emmy for outstanding writing for a variety special for his HBO comedy special 'Just For Us'.
The show, which premiered on HBO and Max in April, centers on Edelman's experience attending a white supremacist meeting in Queens, New York.
'Just For Us' combines autobiography with reflections on Jewish identity, assimilation, and whiteness in the United States.
Edelman dedicated his award to his late friend and collaborator Adam Brace, who passed away before the show's Broadway debut.
This Emmy follows a Special Tony Award Edelman received for 'Just For Us' in June.
