[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are black Jews, Asian Jews, Persian Jews. I think you see these kinds of questioning looks in Reform Judaism, which claims to be welcoming but it's on their terms. [/quote] Minority Jew here. This has not been my experience. Actually Reform temples tend to be more diverse bc they are more accepting of interfaith couples an less concerned with whether someone is a "real" Jew. Conservative and orthodox shuls are more interested in putting you in the Jewish box. I was once asked to go up to the bimah for an aliaya at a bar mitzvah at a conservative shul in the Midwest. The rabbi did not think I was Jewish and shook his head at me, as if to say I could not do it. It was mortifying. [/quote]
