The fascinating thing about this topic is how many fedi conversations it's inspired to sink down into the deep hole of the 19th century Anglo-European Race Science embedded in the brains of the left.
There's some crazy fucked up takes happening around these parts. Whats next, phrenology?
The blood quantum ratio counting is strong with these ones.
" #California is poised to become the first state to treat #Jewish identity as an #ethnicity on official forms, with a new optional checkbox heading to #Gov. #GavinNewsom’s desk.
Supporters say the change could reveal gaps in #healthcare, #education and #hatecrime response for the state’s 1.2 million #Jews, giving officials better data to direct resources.
Opponents warn a single ‘Jewish’ #ethnic box oversimplifies diverse Jewish histories and risks echoing past government tracking, amid elevated #antisemitism and debate over #religion, #ancestry and #culture."

"What makes #Jewish #food Jewish?
“Not food #Jews eat,” said the late #GilMarks in an interview about his monumental Encyclopedia of Jewish Food in 2010.
After all, he pointed out, contemporary #Ashkenazi Jews probably eat more salsa and sushi than schmaltz. Jewish food, he said, is food that “almost becomes sanctified by its use in Jewish life.”
#Marks, a #rabbi, historian, and extraordinary repository of culinary knowledge, was born in West Virginia and died, far too young, in Jerusalem in 2014.
His words came back to me as I began going through my food lists and #recipes, stained from years of #cooking in preparation for #RoshHashanah.
What are the foods that have become sanctified in our family?"

When Jews were expelled from the Iberian peninsula in the 15th century, the Ottoman Empire sent ships to bring them into their empire in the Eastern Mediterranean.
That is how Thessaloniki in Greece grew its large Sephardic Jewish community, until World War II.

"...it is actually a very big deal when the richest person on Earth, who also owns one of the most influential communications platforms on Earth, starts publicly dabbling in ideas about #Jews, bloodlines, DNA, appearance, and racial authenticity. (You remember the people who did that back in the 1930s and 1940s, right?)."

[T]he first data from #Jewish respondents is “particularly alarming,” and suggested the numbers could be higher as many Jewish #civilservants are afraid to publicly identify as Jewish at the workplace.
“The data that we are seeing today points to really high levels of #discrimination amongst those Jewish employees that feel comfortable in self-identifying. A lot of folks still hide their identity because they’re afraid,” Wilczynski explained.
Since the #Oct7, 2023 #Hamas attacks, #antisemitism in #Canada has reached levels without precedent in the available data. #StatisticsCanada’s police-reported #hatecrime figures, released in July, show that #hatecrimes targeting #Jews jumped 82 percent in 2023, to 959 from 527 the year before. The count has since eased slightly—943 in 2024 and 788 in 2025—but Jews, who make up roughly 1 percent of the population, were the target of 70.7 percent of all religion-motivated hate crimes and 16.7 percent of the 4,708 hate crimes..."

"In 2019, #DavidSorkin described his #book #Jewish Emancipation: A History Across Five Centuries as an effort to “re-direct the focus of modern Jewish #history.” “Jewish emancipation” refers in this case to the #Jews’ acquiring rights of #citizenship, and more generally #civilrights, in the countries where they had lived for centuries as resident strangers. By his own admission, #Sorkin wrote about that process of change “from the side of the state.” His new book, The Emancipationists: Nineteenth-Century Jews’ Campaign for Citizenship, is his effort to complement his prior work with “the other side of that history, the Jews’ political mobilization.”
The #Yale #historian’s primary interest is the period from the late 18th century to the eve of World War I, a time during which #European nations, and to a lesser degree the #UnitedStates and North #Africa, addressed and reformed the status of Jews in their midst."

Not a flattering review given the lens chosen. IDGAF. My copy gets here today and I'm looking forward to it. Pun intended.
"A few days after I started #reading #DaraHorn’s new #book, I was called a “#kike” for the first time to my face.
It was a sunny afternoon and I was wearing my Newsguild shirt. A person on the sidewalk, deshabille, possibly collecting junk, asked what union I was in. Against my better judgment I engaged, believing them to be a fellow worker. I said I was a journalist. They then decided I was a “fascist” and “complicit.”
“Do you like writing about the #genocide in #Palestine? The war in #Iran?” they asked me, trailing me past a #Judaica store in a very #Jewish neighborhood.
[...]
#Horn’s The #FinalSolution to #theJewishQuestion: A Love Story for the Living, her latest provocatively-titled #nonfiction book is a survey of #antisemitism past and present and the ways #Jews explain ourselves to the world. At its heart, it is about #education."

" #EzraFeig begins each Friday the same way: corralling 100 #Jews to go on a #run in #CentralPark.
He stands up on a park bench, towering above the crowd. They’re schmoozing and stretching, with impressive energy considering the hour. Around half wear blue shirts and shorts emblazoned with a white #StarofDavid, interlaced with an outline of a #runner.
#Feig spreads his arms wide and says “Welcome to #NiceJewishRunners.”
A 35-year-old health care entrepreneur, Feig launched Nice #Jewish #Runners in the wake of the #Hamas-led #Oct7 attacks on #Israel. Three years later, the running group has kept up its pace. Jews from multiple generations, but mostly in their 20s and 30s, continue to feel the group’s pull. For those raised in less observant backgrounds but called to engage more with their #Judaism after Oct. 7, the weekly jogs give them a way to do so outside a #synagogue.
The group has expanded to at least 19 cities in five countries around the world."

"Last week, #DaraHorn was hosted on #HavivRettigGur’s #podcast, “#AskHavivAnything,” to discuss her past #book and her soon-to-be-released book, both of which argue that #Holocaust #education in the #UnitedStates commonly fails to teach about the #Jewish people and #antisemitism, with possible negative consequences.
As #Horn has famously put it, our world seems far more invested in teaching about “dead #Jews” than about Jewish life. She suggests that this approach may reinforce the very hatred it is supposed to inoculate against.
Within hours of that episode airing, #Instagram accounts were using clips from the podcast to accuse the #Holocausteducation organization I work for of harming Jews. I am certain this is not what Horn intends, but one consequence of her argument is that it can easily be reduced to the belief that “Holocaust education does not work.”
It does, in fact, not work and the positive indicators in the article make Horn's case not Cunningham's. 🙄

"Last week, #DaraHorn was hosted on #HavivRettigGur’s #podcast, “#AskHavivAnything,” to discuss her past #book and her soon-to-be-released book, both of which argue that #Holocaust #education in the #UnitedStates commonly fails to teach about the #Jewish people and #antisemitism, with possible negative consequences.
As #Horn has famously put it, our world seems far more invested in teaching about “dead #Jews” than about Jewish life. She suggests that this approach may reinforce the very hatred it is supposed to inoculate against.
Within hours of that episode airing, #Instagram accounts were using clips from the podcast to accuse the #Holocausteducation organization I work for of harming Jews. I am certain this is not what Horn intends, but one consequence of her argument is that it can easily be reduced to the belief that “Holocaust education does not work.”

Ross is wrong.
The right can act with impunity when the left doesn't fight them on it. If the right is able to bring violence its because the gentile left is either too small, weak, and irrelevant to do anything about it or they've decided the victim is undeserving of their support.
Left/Right same system for Jews.
"When #Jewish leaders speak out these days, it’s often to blast the anti-#Israel actions of one #DemocraticSocialistsofAmerica #politician or another. Given all the attention — and the millions of dollars raised within the Jewish community to help defeat these #candidates — you’d think the greatest existential threat to #American #Jews was coming from the left.
But a new #book by #historian #StevenRoss is here to tell you: You’d be mistaken.
“What you’ve seen seeping in on the far left is more anti-Israel and some #antisemitism,” #Ross told me in a phone interview. “But here’s the thing: the left has never called for death to people, the right has.”

Jews were legally considered a separate race in the US through WW2. The 1987 S.C. decision in Shaare Tefila Congregation v. Cobb is based on it.
All of my people's migration documents list their race as Hebrew. This isn't moving forward. I'm not saying it's good or bad. It's just not new.
"The state of #California is poised to become the first in the nation to recognize being #Jewish as an #ethnic and #racial, not just a #religious, identity.
On Aug. 13, a key committee of its state #Senate passed a bill that would add “Jewish” to its long list of recognized identities. This is an important step forward in a longstanding debate about whether that label denotes just a religion or is an #ethnicity or #race. As The #NewYorkTimes observes, it is “a first step toward acknowledging and demystifying the multifaceted nature of Jewish identity.”
But it comes at a dangerous moment for #American #Jews, a moment of rising #antisemitism and anti-Jewish #hatecrimes."
