    Race is the wrong word in the modern American context. Jews aren’t a race in the sense of black vs white.

    Jews are, however, an ethnicity - much like how you can be ethnically Navaho or ethnically Basque. It’s a matter of being part of a community of people with a shared culture and ancestry. And yes, beta Israel and Ashkenazim are both ethnically Jewish.

      That’s really weird, Clyde… considering that it’s the only understanding of “race” we have here in our fundamentally white supremacist society.

      Do tell… what does the KKK and the neonazis think of your (supposedly) “nuanced” take on pseudo-scientific “race science?”
