"An insightful interpretation of the complexities of Jewish
ethnoracial identity, in the context of a multicultural America
stratified by gender, race and class that is both theoretically
rich and deeply personal. By interrogating how Jews were integrated
within the framework of whiteness. Brodkin illustrates just how
difficult it may be to deracialize American society and
culture."
