[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]But one can be both Chinese—the ethnicity—and Jewish—the religion.[/b] DP. Here’s what I told my former SIL about the difference between her transracially adopted son and her friend’s adopted white son who is the same race. “Y[b]our child’s face tells part of his story. He can’t easily step into any shul in the US and be accepted the way Friend’s white son can. Give him options for finding community.”[/b][/quote] This, so this.[/quote] My father is Chinese. My mom is Polish and Jewish. They met in Ny. I was raised Jewish. My facial features are clearly Chinese. I have always been welcome in any shul I’ve entered. I have never found it difficult to become a part of the multiple Jewish communities that I have lived in due to my facial features. [/quote] That’s entirely different and you know it. Your mother is Jewish. [/quote] The adopted child’s mother is also Jewish.[/quote]
