Jews want to be known as an individual race, per the 1800s Talmud.

Meanwhile the world thinks of race as skin color.

Same word, different definitions. Fun stuff.

A race is a categorization of humans based on shared physical or social qualities into groups generally viewed as distinct within a given society. The term was first used to refer to speakers of a common language and then to denote national affiliations. By the 17th century, the term began to refer to physical traits.

She needs to go.

I think it’s absurd for her to apologize because Jewish isn’t a race.

Shes not sorry. She was adamant about her belief and said what she said. Only apologizing so she doesn't get canceled.

And this is how you know race is a social construct. The more we realize we are not different, the more progress we'll make. Woke culture is becoming too divisive. It's overcomplicating things and making a zillion subgroups who are harmed in ever sophisticated ways. But skin color isn't a better line to divide people on than height or tolerance for spicy food. It's totally arbitrary.

They’re not true Jews, jokes on them. No Jewish mother blood, not Jewish. Duh.

I’ll be sure to tell my friend who converted for her husband and who plan to raise their children in the faith. Converting isn’t real since it’s not a religion and instead a race

Well I have a white friend who married an African American and raise their children in the African American culture (Kwanzaa, etc). That happens all the time with different races. It's called an interracial relationship.

Is she trying to pass for black? Did she convert to black?

Stop being pedantic. No one is denying that Judaism is also a religion. But you can’t convert your ethnicity to Jewish - only your religion

Of course you can. Ethnicity is the fact or state of belonging to a social group that has a common national or cultural tradition. Once you marry into a Jewish family and convert, you are ethnically Jewish. Maybe not from birth, but your ethnicity and cultural identity are now Jewish.

Welcome to your new reality, huh?

I liked her in Ghost and Sister Act, but truthfully I haven't been interested in anything she's had to say in a long time.

I accept converts for what it's worth. But it's just dumb to argue that their DNA will now show they're jewish like mine does.

So its more complicated -- Ashkenazi and Sephardic are Jewish ethnicities. Technically all Races could be Jewish, but just as someone can be Hispanic and White or Hispanic and Black, so too can you be the Jewish ethnicities.

But to many, Jews aren't White....

Which makes no sense are all since the majority are Caucasian.

This is a fairly decent article I think.

On the extreme right, Jews are seen as impure—a faux-white race that has tainted America. And on the extreme left, Jews are seen as part of a white-majority establishment that seeks to dominate people of color. Taken together, these attacks raise an interesting question: Are Jews white?

Judaism.is.not.a.race! To argue it is is to be a Nazi.

"On today's show, I said the Holocaust ‘is not about race, but about man’s inhumanity to man.' I should have said it is about both," Goldberg wrote in a statement released Monday evening. "As Jonathan Greenblatt from the Anti-Defamation League shared, ‘The Holocaust was about the Nazi's systematic annihilation of the Jewish people - who they deemed to be an inferior race.' I stand corrected."
