I was trying very hard to describe some women who were of the very same heritage that I am.(I am half Jewish by family only..I was NOT raised to be Jewish..and my mom is not Jewish..but, I still believe myself to be Jewish anyways, despite the fact that I will never be recognised as such!)
But, anyhow,, I used to work at a Jewish community center..and I over heard several Jewish women(mostly parents) talking about me...(I believe they were) that I should NOT be teaching and or helping out in the Jewish preschool..that they should have people who are ALL Jewish that teach there.. instead!!! (incidently, there were other women and men who were NOT Jewish at all, and they taught there,,and were quite good!)
anyhow, I felt really insulted and it hurt me..and I said something about this on some racial boards.and pretty soon, two Jewish women got really really angry with me..and told me that I was anti-semitic by me just describing what the women were..so was I?
Help!!
