“thanks to Woody Allen, Hollywood, and plenty of other reasons that have no connection to reality, the majority of the world likes to think Jews are all white, nerdy, and short. And have been like that since day one… Even more striking is the way women are stereotyped. Either as old (white) ladies fussing over their mini Woody Allens or young (white) JAPs”

Making me reflect on how closely stereotyped Jews have been in America.

Also, this features a color photograph from 1911, which is pretty cool.
