7. Like light skinned Blacks, we Jews can "pass" for white

But we aren't white. Some Jews consider themselves white, while others understand they are only passing (in a white Christian society). Both Blacks and Jews were banned from many country clubs and hotels until the civil rights movement took hold in the 1960's. We Jews changed our names to pass better and not stand out. In black US history, there are many who passed for white in order to improve the opportunities for themselves and their families.

We Jews are a people, a tribe, and many of us follow religious practices or traditions in some way, whether it's Passover Seder, high holiday visits, Chanukkah gifts, attending or having bar or bat mitzvahs, Jewish weddings or funerals. Many identify as culturally Jewish, some deny or ignore or are uninvolved in any Jewish aspect.

The history of our people involves persecution over thousands of years. We are accepted into a society/culture/country, and then rejected, scapegoated, enslaved, expelled, exterminated. Over thousands of years.

At the present time, our DNA can be tested and our Jewishness confirmed, with the exception of Jews by choice. I find it fascinating and also scary, aware that they can identify Jewish DNA which they (christo-facists?) can use to expell or exterminate us.

I don't generally see the world in terms of black or white, I see shades of gray and different hues.
Whoopie seems to see this as black and white. If you look white, you must be white. But I bet she knows a lot of lightskinned "blacks" who look white, but identify as black.

When asked for my race on census and other forms, I check "other" and write in Human.
Any form of prejudice, racism can be minimized to say it's only "man's inhumanity to man"
It's more than that.
