Minor Captain America: The Winter Soldier spoiler under the cut.

The kid in the Triskelion control room? The one HYDRA commands at gunpoint to accelerate the Insight launch? The one who refuses, who goes blank with fear, who cries, who refuses?

He's Jewish.

Yep. There's this fic about him on AO3 that I've been trying to find again, in which that's a Thing.

How do you know?

(if it's something I should have noticed myself, in my defense I haven't actually seen the film yet)

I had wondered, but I feel uncomfortable about saying "he looks Jewish" when I'm not sure?

It's kind of interesting, given how he is also very clearly positioned as the audience-identification figure at that point, with the tension drawn out just long enough for us to wonder if we would have the courage to do what's right, just an ordinary person with no powers or special weapons. (Or at least, that's always what runs through my mind at that point.)

I do love that Agent 13 saves him (though thanks to [personal profile] recessional I also cannot help thinking "step back Sharon, you have a ranged weapon for a reason, oh look you got knifed"), and that he gets a little cameo in Age of Ultron just to reinforce that he survived.

Echoing the old man in Avengers Assemble who refuses to bow down for Loki and is only saved by Cap's timely arrival.

I caught that echo, but didn't notice his ethnicity.

Which: v. cool. Thanks, kaberett!

I believe in Avengers he refers obliquely to having lived through the camps and so he has no intention of doing something like bowing to Loki.

Kudos for the courage of your convictions, K. I thought he was Jewish (I'm also MOT) but not enough to speak out about it ;) lead on!
