Magician, escape artist, Harry Houdini was born on March 24, 1874 #botd
am I doing this meme right?
i learned that Harry Houdini had skepticism of anything mystical and had intense anger at miracle workers, spiritualists, and mediums that preyed on vulnerable people (x)
As he should!!! He wasn’t against spiritualism or anything of the such. Just the frauds 👀
Harry Houdini's adversaries called him names and claimed his Jewish roots made him un-American...
Yet the famous magician, a son of a rabbi, remained proud of his Jewish identity throughout his entire life.
Houdini was a master of illusion and sleight of hand, but never claimed to possess any supernatural abilities. In fact, he often worked to expose charlatans who did so.
This caused antisemitic ire to come his way, as the spiritualists and mediums he exposed used Houdini's Judaism against him.
Harry Houdini, perhaps the greatest magician of all time, fittingly passed away on Halloween, 1926
