content: Maybe that's how Jews feel inside, and she's just too honest because she doesn't realize she's Jewish... However, I think it is more likely part of the strategy to obfuscate language. In this case establishing the existence of "racism," while the truth is closer to pattern-recognition without ill-intent. Who could deny another's subjective experience of feeling racist? Who would call out someone who won't recognize their own ethnic Jewishness publicly as Jewish? Pretty genius.  DiAngelo writes: "However, like most white people raised in the US, I was not taught to see myself in racial terms and certainly not to draw attention to my race or to behave as if it mattered in any way. Of course, I was made aware that somebody’s race mattered, and if race was discussed, it would be theirs, not mine. Yet a critical component of cross-racial skill building is the ability to sit with the discomfort of being seen racially, of having to proceed as if our race matters (which it does). Being seen racially is a common trigger of white fragility, and thus, to build our stamina, white people must face the first challenge: naming our race." Firstly, written like a true outsider from Whitehood! She implies there is a conspiracy of whites to omit the education of recognizing one's self as white. Furthermore, the implication that having less of a racial identity could make one "more racist" is contrary to the idea of "racism." This strategy is indicative of subversion.  She writes, "The idea of race as a biological construct makes it easy to believe that many of the divisions we see in society are natural.  2ebd   But race, like gender, is socially constructed." Core to her strategy seems to be that her phenotype of Jewish does not matter - and she is allowed to identify as white. And it matters if you are white, as she says previously, but white has no phenotype or genotype... Classic doublespeak.
