Re: Ethnicity in America

I kind of get that. I'm of Polish Jewish origin, so there's a similar difference between "race" in the skin tone sense, and "ethnicity" in the lineage sense

We're Reform Jews, so my immediate family doesn't really care overmuch, but my aunt spent about a decade refusing to acknowledge my cousins' boyfriends if they weren't Jewish. Insisting on having non-Jews convert or raising the kids jewish as a marriage condition is also pretty common.

Also, I'm pretty sure that any white supremacist groups would not consider me white if they knew my family history, even if they'd never question my "whiteness" if they saw me in the street.
