[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the OP. Wow, some posters really make a lot of assumptions. My roots are such that there’s actually a very good chance that I have Jewish ancestry - not Ashkenazi, but Jewish. My ancestry is Portuguese and from a small village where there were Jews but many people converted. It’s a point of curiosity, not my identity, but many of the assumptions about Judaism and ethnicity in the US are firmly rooted in the Ashkenazi experience. There are people all over South America, Africa, France, Spain and Portugal who have Jewish ancestry but may not even know it. I’ve read that as many as 20% of Iberian men have Jewish ancestry. Expand that to all the former colonies of Spain and Portugal, and you have lots of people who have Jewish DNA but do not practice the religion nor identify as Jewish. Anywho… Thanks to those who directed me to resources. I will look into them. [/quote] Are you…goysplaining to Jews about Jewishness?[/quote]
