Actions speak louder than words. Maybe the reason why no one believes you are a Jew is because you are not acting like one. If you are devout and true to your faith, the truth WILL be seen. Maybe you have back slidden and now are back on the path of truth... In that case, just live true to your faith and the Holy Spirit will glow from you and then people will notice.

Well if you don't have a record of your genealogy I guess you'll have to find a priest with the Urim and Thummim to make your case.
Ezra 2:61 Also, of the sons of the priests: the sons of Habaiah, the sons of Hakkoz, and the sons of Barzillai (who had taken a wife from the daughters of Barzillai the Gileadite, and was called by their name). (62) These sought their registration among those enrolled in the genealogies, but they were not found there, and so they were excluded from the priesthood as unclean. (63) The governor told them that they were not to partake of the most holy food, until there should be a priest to consult Urim and Thummim.

Well, circumcision won't help, because a lot of Gentile kids are circumcised too.
Take them to synagogue with you. Maybe that will work. It would be pretty hard for a Gentile to participate in the service, I would think.
Besides, why should you care whether anyone knows you're Jewish? Forgive me for not seeing the importance.

...You don't need to flaunt your religion, just stay that way. And if they ask, tell them you're an Orthodox Jew, but you don't need to do anything to prove that except believe in what your religion preaches.

As I understand the problem, Michael Richards who played Kramer on the Seinfeld TV show, has
the same problem.
Perhaps he can help you.
Perhaps you shouldn't make contact however if you are black.

let them believe what they want to believe... you know you are a jew and you don't need other people to tell you that... you know you're religion and you have a god (you do,don't you?)... you don't have to prove anybody anything, just obey your doctrines and follow your teachings...
